    Fix regression on Windows with WOW64
    
    Internally at AdaCore, we recently started testing a 64-bit gdb
    debugging 32-bit processes.  This failed with gdb head, but not with
    gdb 11.
    
    The tests fail like this:
    
         Starting program: [...].exe
         warning: Could not load shared library symbols for WOW64_IMAGE_SECTION.
         Do you need "set solib-search-path" or "set sysroot"?
         warning: Could not load shared library symbols for WOW64_IMAGE_SECTION.
         Do you need "set solib-search-path" or "set sysroot"?
         warning: Could not load shared library symbols for NOT_AN_IMAGE.
         Do you need "set solib-search-path" or "set sysroot"?
         warning: Could not load shared library symbols for NOT_AN_IMAGE.
         Do you need "set solib-search-path" or "set sysroot"?
    
    After some debugging and bisecting, to my surprise the bug was
    introduced by commit 183be222 ("gdb, gdbserver: make target_waitstatus
    safe").
    
    The problem occurs in handle_exception.  Previously the code did:
    
        -  ourstatus->kind = TARGET_WAITKIND_STOPPED;
        [...]
             case EXCEPTION_BREAKPOINT:
        [...]
        -     ourstatus->kind = TARGET_WAITKIND_SPURIOUS;
        [...]
               /* FALLTHROUGH */
             case STATUS_WX86_BREAKPOINT:
               DEBUG_EXCEPTION_SIMPLE ("EXCEPTION_BREAKPOINT");
        -      ourstatus->value.sig = GDB_SIGNAL_TRAP;
        [...]
        -  last_sig = ourstatus->value.sig;
    
    However, in the new code, the fallthrough case does:
    
        +      ourstatus->set_stopped (GDB_SIGNAL_TRAP);
    
    ... which changes the 'kind' in 'ourstatus' after falling through.
    
    This patch rearranges the 'last_sig' setting to more closely match
    what was done before (this is probably not strictly needed but also
    seemed harmless), and removes the fall-through in the
    'ignore_first_breakpoint' case when __x86_64__ is defined.
