    Thread options & clone events (core + remote)

    A previous patch taught GDB about a new TARGET_WAITKIND_THREAD_CLONED
    event kind, and made the Linux target report clone events.

    A following patch will teach Linux GDBserver to do the same thing.

    However, for remote debugging, it wouldn't be ideal for GDBserver to
    report every clone event to GDB, when GDB only cares about such events
    in some specific situations.  Reporting clone events all the time
    would be potentially chatty.  We don't enable thread create/exit
    events all the time for the same reason.  Instead we have the
    QThreadEvents packet.  QThreadEvents is target-wide, though.

    This patch makes GDB instead explicitly request that the target
    reports clone events or not, on a per-thread basis.

    In order to be able to do that with GDBserver, we need a new remote
    protocol feature.  Since a following patch will want to enable thread
    exit events on per-thread basis too, the packet introduced here is
    more generic than just for clone events.  It lets you enable/disable a
    set of options at once, modelled on Linux ptrace's PTRACE_SETOPTIONS.

    IOW, this commit introduces a new QThreadOptions packet, that lets you
    specify a set of per-thread event options you want to enable.  The
    packet accepts a list of options/thread-id pairs, similarly to vCont,
    processed left to right, with the options field being a number
    interpreted as a bit mask of options.  The only option defined in this
    commit is GDB_THREAD_OPTION_CLONE (0x1), which ask the remote target
    to report clone events.  Another patch later in the series will
    introduce another option.

    For example, this packet sets option "1" (clone events) on thread
    p1000.2345:

      QThreadOptions;1:p1000.2345

    and this clears options for all threads of process 1000, and then sets
    option "1" (clone events) on thread p1000.2345:

      QThreadOptions;0:p1000.-1;1:p1000.2345

    This clears options of all threads of all processes:

      QThreadOptions;0

    The target reports the set of supported options by including
    "QThreadOptions=<supported options>" in its qSupported response.

    infrun is then tweaked to enable GDB_THREAD_OPTION_CLONE when stepping
    over a breakpoint.

    Unlike PTRACE_SETOPTIONS, fork/vfork/clone children do NOT inherit
    their parent's thread options.  This is so that GDB can send e.g.,
    "QThreadOptions;0;1:TID" without worrying about threads it doesn't
    know about yet.

    Documentation for this new remote protocol feature is included in a
    documentation patch later in the series.
