This is all weird (not in a "your fault"  way). ProcessFreeBSD is decidedly a local-only plugin. It could never successfully complete the "process connect" command, regardless of whether we have some other remote plugin or not.

I think that the real fix here would be to change the plugin selection logic (Target::CreateProcess) to convey the fact that we're looking for a connectable plugin. The method already contains a `FileSpec *core_file` argument, which I guess is needed to select the proper core file subclass, so adding a can_connect argument would not be unreasonable (though not exactly pretty either).

Though, for the purposes of this test, just adding a "--plugin gdb-remote" argument to the "process connect" command should be sufficient as well.
