[PATCH v6 5/6] Remote follow vfork

[Don Breazeal <donb at codesourcery dot com>]

Hi Pedro,

This version of this patch is unchanged except possibly for merges from
the mainline.

Thanks,
--Don

This patch implements follow-fork for vfork on remote and 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.

 * handling VFORK and VFORK_DONE events in linux-low.c:handle_extended_wait
   and reporting them to GDB.
 
 * including VFORK and VFORK_DONE events in the predicate
   linux-low.c:extended_event_reported.

 * adding 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.

Thanks
