    gdb/linux-nat: remove check based on current_inferior in linux_handle_extended_wait
    
    The check removed by this patch, using current_inferior, looks wrong.
    When debugging multiple inferiors with the Linux native target and
    linux_handle_extended_wait is called, there's no guarantee about which
    is the current inferior.  The vfork-done event we receive could be for
    any inferior.  If the vfork-done event is for a non-current inferior, we
    end up wrongfully ignoring it.  As a result, the core never processes a
    TARGET_WAITKIND_VFORK_DONE event, program_space::breakpoints_not_allowed
    is never cleared, and breakpoints are never reinserted.  However,
    because the Linux native target decided to ignore the event, it resumed
    the thread - while breakpoints out.  And that's bad.
    
    The proposed fix is to remove this check.  Always report vfork-done
    events and let infrun's logic decide if it should be ignored.  We don't
    save much cycles by filtering the event here.
    
    Add a test that replicates the situation described above.  See comments
    in the test for more details.

+# prompted writing this test case was in the Linux native target.  The target
+# assumed that the vfork-done event it received was for the current inferior
+# (an invalid assumption, the current inferior is the one randomly selected by
+# do_target_wait (at the time of writing).  This caused the target to drop the
+# vfork-done event, because it was seen as unneeded and to restart the thread
+# as if nothing happened.  This however resulted in the thread running with
+# breakpoints not inserted.
+#
+# To catch the bug, this test verifies that we can hit a breakpoint after a
+# vfork call, while a second inferior runs in the background.
