[PATCH v2] Remove support for thread events without PTRACE_EVENT_CLONE in GDB.


Before, on systems that did not support PTRACE_EVENT_CLONE, both GDB and
GDBServer coordinated with libthread_db.so to insert breakpoints at magic
locations in libpthread.so, in order to break at thread creation and
thread death.

Support for thread events was removed from GDBServer as patch:
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2015-11/msg00466.html

This patch removes support for thread events in GDB.

No regressions found on Ubuntu 14.04 x86_64.

	* breakpoint.c (remove_thread_event_breakpoints): Remove.
	* breakpoint.h (remove_thread_event_breakpoints): Remove
