[PATCH 08/16 v3] Extended-remote follow vfork


This patch implements follow-fork for vfork on extended-remote linux
targets.

The implementation follows the native implementation as much as possible.
Most of the work is done on the GDB side in the existing code now in
infrun.c.  GDBserver just has to report the events and do a little
bookkeeping.

Implementation was almost entirely in gdbserver, excepting changes to
gdb/remote.c, and included:

 * enabling VFORK events
   - by adding ptrace options for VFORK and VFORK_DONE as 'additional
     options' in linux-low.c:initialize_low, so that they are available for
     extended-mode.

   - by adding ptrace options for VFORK and VFORK_DONE as 'base options' in
     linux-low.c:linux_enable_extended_features.  In this function we know
     we are in extended-mode, so we enable these options if they are
     supported.
 
 * handling VFORK and VFORK_DONE events in linux-low.c:handle_extended_wait
   by saving the event information for event reporting and for the
   follow_fork request expected to come from GDB.
 
 * handling VFORK in linux-low.c:linux_follow_fork, for the case where
   VFORK_DONE is supported and the case where it is not.  This code is very
   similar to the code in linux-nat.c:linux_child_follow_fork, but slight
   differences in the data structures between the two implementations led
   me to keep them separate.

 * include VFORK and VFORK_DONE events in the predicate
   linux-low.c:extended_event_reported.

 * add support for VFORK and VFORK_DONE events in RSP by adding stop
   reasons "vfork" and "vforkdone" to the 'T' Stop Reply Packet in both
   gdbserver/remote-utils.c and gdb/remote.c.

Tested on x64 Ubuntu Lucid, native, remote, extended-remote.  Also tested
(on the same system) support for systems lacking VFORK_DONE events by
modifying gdbserver to simulate that case.

Thanks
