    gdb: pass target to thread_ptid_changed observable
    
    I noticed what I think is a potential bug.  I did not observe it nor was
    I able to reproduce it using actual debugging.  It's quite unlikely,
    because it involves multi-target and ptid clashes.  I added selftests
    that demonstrate it though.
    
    The thread_ptid_changed observer says that thread with OLD_PTID now has
    NEW_PTID.  Now, if for some reason we happen to have two targets
    defining a thread with OLD_PTID, the observers don't know which thread
    this is about.
    
    regcache::regcache_thread_ptid_changed changes all regcaches with
    OLD_PTID.  If there is a regcache for a thread with ptid OLD_PTID, but
    that belongs to a different target, this regcache will be erroneously
    changed.
    
    Similarly, infrun_thread_ptid_changed updates inferior_ptid if
    inferior_ptid matches OLD_PTID.  But if inferior_ptid currently refers
    not to the thread is being changed, but to a thread with the same ptid
    belonging to a different target, then inferior_ptid will erroneously be
    changed.
    
    This patch adds a `process_stratum_target *` parameter to the
    `thread_ptid_changed` observable and makes the two observers use it.
    Tests for both are added, which would fail if the corresponding fix
    wasn't done.
    
    gdb/ChangeLog:
    
            * observable.h (thread_ptid_changed): Add parameter
            `process_stratum_target *`.
            * infrun.c (infrun_thread_ptid_changed): Add parameter
            `process_stratum_target *` and use it.
            (selftests): New namespace.
            (infrun_thread_ptid_changed): New function.
            (_initialize_infrun): Register selftest.
            * regcache.c (regcache_thread_ptid_changed): Add parameter
            `process_stratum_target *` and use it.
            (regcache_thread_ptid_changed): New function.
            (_initialize_regcache): Register selftest.
            * thread.c (thread_change_ptid): Pass target to
            thread_ptid_changed observable.
