This commit implements functions for identifying and extracting extended
ptrace event information from a Linux wait status. These are just
convenience functions intended to hide the ">> 16" used to extract the
event from the wait status word, replacing the hard-coded shift with a more
descriptive function call. This is preparatory work for implementation of
follow-fork and detach-on-fork for extended-remote linux targets.

and linux_is_extended_waitstatus.
* nat/linux-ptrace.c (linux_test_for_tracefork): Call
linux_ptrace_get_extended_event.
(linux_ptrace_get_extended_event): New function.
(linux_is_extended_waitstatus): New function.
* nat/linux-ptrace.h (linux_ptrace_get_extended_event)
(linux_is_extended_waitstatus): New declarations.
gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:
* linux-low.c (handle_extended_wait): Call
linux_ptrace_get_extended_event.
(get_stop_pc, get_detach_signal, linux_low_filter_event): Call
linux_is_extended_waitstatus.

This patch removes some GDBSERVER checks from nat/linux-ptrace.c.
Currently the code uses a compile-time check to decide whether some
flags should be used. This changes the code to instead let users of
the module specify an additional set of flags; and then changes gdb's
linux-nat.c to call this function. At some later date, when the back
ends are fully merged, we will be able to remove this function again.
