Pedro Alves b7ea362b02 [remote/gdbserver] Don't lose signals when reconnecting. 
Currently, when GDB connects in all-stop mode, GDBserver always
responds to the status packet with a GDB_SIGNAL_TRAP, even if the
program is actually stopped for some other signal.

 (gdb) tar rem ...
 ...
 (gdb) c
 Program received signal SIGUSR1, User defined signal 1.
 (gdb) disconnect
 (gdb) tar rem ...
 (gdb) c

(Or a GDB crash instead of an explicit disconnect.)

This results in the program losing that signal on that last continue,
because gdb will tell the target to resume with no signal (to suppress
the GDB_SIGNAL_TRAP, due to 'handle SISGTRAP nopass'), and that will
actually suppress the real signal the program had stopped for
(SIGUSR1).  To fix that, I think we should make GDBserver report the
real signal the thread had stopped for in response to the status
packet:

 @item ?
 @cindex @samp{?} packet
 Indicate the reason the target halted.  The reply is the same as for
 step and continue.

But, that raises the question -- which thread are we reporting the
status for?  Due to how the RSP in all-stop works, we can only report
one status.  The status packet's response is a stop reply packet, so
it includes the thread identifier, so it's not a problem packet-wise.
However, GDBserver is currently always reporting the status for first
thread in the thread list, even though that may well not be the thread
that got the signal that caused the program to stop.  So the next
logical step would be to report the status for the
last_ptid/last_status thread (the last event reported to gdb), if it's
still around; and if not, fallback to some other thread.

There's an issue on the GDB side with that, though...

GDB currently always adds the thread reported in response to the
status query as the first thread in its list.  That means that if we
start with e.g.,

 (gdb) info threads
   3 Thread 1003 ...
 * 2 Thread 1002 ...
   1 Thread 1001 ...

And reconnect:

 (gdb) disconnect
 (gdb) tar rem ...

We end up with:

 (gdb) info threads
   3 Thread 1003 ...
   2 Thread 1001 ...
 * 1 Thread 1002 ...

Not a real big issue, but it's reasonably fixable, by having GDB
fetch/sync the thread list before fetching the status/'?', and then
using the status to select the right thread as current on the GDB
side.  Holes in the thread numbers are squashed before/after
reconnection (e.g., 2,3,5 becomes 1,2,3), but the order is preserved,
which I think is both good, and good enough.

However (yes, there's more...), the previous GDB that was connected
might have had gdbserver running in non-stop mode, or could have left
gdbserver doing disconnected tracing (which also forces non-stop), and
if the new gdb/connection is in all-stop mode, we can end up with more
than one thread with a signal to report back to gdb.  As we can only
report one thread/status (in the all-stop RSP variant; the non-stop
variant doesn't have this issue), we get to do what we do at every
other place we have this situation -- leave events we can't report
right now as pending, so that the next resume picks them up.

Note all this ammounts to a QoI change, within the existing framework.
There's really no RSP change here.

The only user visible change (other than that the signal is program is
stopped at isn't lost / is passed to the program), is in "info
program", that now can show the signal the program stopped for.  Of
course, the next resume will respect the pass/nopass setting for the
signal in question.  It'd be reasonable to have the initial connection
tell the user the program was stopped with a signal, similar to when
we load a core to debug, but I'm leaving that out for a future change.
I think we'll need to either change how handle_inferior_event & co
handle stop_soon, or maybe bypass them completely (like
fork-child.c:startup_inferior) for that.

Tested on x86_64 Fedora 17.

	* gdbthread.h (struct thread_info) <status_pending_p>: New field.
	* server.c (visit_actioned_threads, handle_pending_status): New
	function.
	(handle_v_cont): Factor out parts to ...
	(resume): ... this new function.  If in all-stop, and a thread
	being resumed has a pending status, report it without actually
	resuming.
	(myresume): Adjust to use the new 'resume' function.
	(clear_pending_status_callback, set_pending_status_callback)
	(find_status_pending_thread_callback): New functions.
	(handle_status): Handle the case of multiple threads having
	interesting statuses to report.  Report threads' real last signal
	instead of always reporting GDB_SIGNAL_TRAP.  Look for a thread
	with an interesting thread to report the status for, instead of
	always reporting the status of the first thread.
