[C++/mingw] Simplify first chance exception handling

Building in C++ errors out with:

../../src/gdb/windows-nat.c: In function 'int get_windows_debug_event(target_ops*, int, target_waitstatus*)':
../../src/gdb/windows-nat.c:1503:13: warning: invalid conversion from 'int' to 'gdb_signal' [-fpermissive]
    last_sig = 1;
             ^

 ^

Looking at the code, I can't figure out why we treat first chance
exceptions any different here.

AFAICS, we set last_sig to 1, and then call windows_resume passing
signal==1, so the DBG_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED code path in win32_resume
is taken:

~~~
  if (sig != GDB_SIGNAL_0)
    {
      if (current_event.dwDebugEventCode != EXCEPTION_DEBUG_EVENT)
	{
	  OUTMSG (("Cannot continue with signal %d here.\n", sig));
	}
      else if (sig == last_sig)
	continue_status = DBG_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED;
      else
	OUTMSG (("Can only continue with recieved signal %d.\n", last_sig));
    }
~~~

Fix this by removing this special casing.  gdbserver also goes
straight to continuing with DBG_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED, AFAICS.

gdb/ChangeLog:
2015-11-17  Pedro Alves  <palves@redhat.com>

	* windows-nat.c (handle_exception): Return 0 for first chance
	exceptions.
	(get_windows_debug_event): Adjust.
