Pedro Alves a911d87ad7 Fix PR19388: Can't access $_siginfo in breakpoint (catch signal) condition
This commit merges both the registers and $_siginfo "thread
running/executing" checks into a single function.

Accessing $_siginfo from a "catch signal" breakpoint condition doesn't
work.  The condition always fails with "Selected thread is running":

 (gdb) catch signal
 Catchpoint 3 (standard signals)
 (gdb)
 condition $bpnum $_siginfo.si_signo == 5
 (gdb) continue
 Continuing.
 Error in testing breakpoint condition:
 Selected thread is running.

 Catchpoint 3 (signal SIGUSR1), 0x0000003615e35877 in __GI_raise (sig=10) at ../nptl/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/raise.c:56
 56        return INLINE_SYSCALL (tgkill, 3, pid, selftid, sig);
 (gdb)

When accessing the $_siginfo object, we check whether the thread is
marked running (external/public) state and refuse the access if so.
This is so "print $_siginfo" at the prompt fails nicelly when the
current thread is running.  While evaluating breakpoint conditionals,
we haven't decided yet whether the thread is going to stop, so
is_running still returns true, and we thus always error out.

Evaluating an expression that requires registers access is really
conceptually the same -- we could think of $_siginfo as a pseudo
register.  However, in that case we check whether the thread is marked
executing (internal/private state), not running (external/public
state).  Changing the $_siginfo validation to check is_executing as
well fixes the bug in question.

Note that checking is_executing is not fully correct, not even for
registers.  See PR 19389.  However, I think this is the lesser of two
evils and ends up as an improvement.  We at least now have a single
place to fix.

Tested on x86_64 GNU/Linux.
