diff: fix some mdb bugs

Estimated hours taken: 8

Fix a few bugs in the debugger.

compiler/trace.m:
	Fix a bug for procedures compiled with shallow tracing:
	if from_full is false, it still needs to save the call depth,
	since calls in the body of the procedure will reset the
	call depth to the saved value.
	Also fix some comment rot.

trace/mercury_trace_internal.c:
	Fix a couple of problems with the retry command:
	- if we're already at a call port, then just print a
	  warning rather than finishing the call and then
	  retrying it;
	- restore MR_trace_from_full to TRUE before jumping
	  to the procedure.

runtime/mercury_stack_trace.c:
	Fix some problems with the printing of detailed stack traces:
	- for procedures whose stack layouts didn't include execution
	  tracing information, the columns didn't match up;
	- for procedures with shallow (interface) tracing only,
	  it was sometimes printing out bogus details.

runtime/mercury_trace_base.c:
	Fix some formatting problems in the error message output by
	MR_trace_fake().
