The gdb-protocol spec says

> Recipients should silently ignore corrupted notifications and notifications 
> they do not understand.

This changes `WaitForPacketNoLock` so that it ignores all notifications (I'm 
not sure about corrupted ones).

An example of a notification that causes issues without this change is that 
OpenOCD sends `%ookeepalive:00` notifications during memory accesses.
