Merge ps_get_thread_area

This commit adds a new helper, x86_linux_get_thread_area, to
hold the common parts of the ps_get_thread_area functions in
i386-linux-nat.c and amd64-linux-nat.c.

	* amd64-linux-nat.c (x86_linux_get_thread_area): New function.
	(ps_get_thread_area): Delegate to the above in 32-bit mode.
	* i386-linux-nat.c (x86_linux_get_thread_area): New function.
	(ps_get_thread_area): Delegate to the above.

and a bunch of status bits.
The values returned by this ptrace call should be part of the
regcache buffer, and ps_get_thread_area should channel its
request through the regcache. That way remote targets could
provide the value using the remote protocol and not this direct
call.
Is this function needed? I'm guessing that the `base' is the
address of a descriptor that libthread_db uses to find the
thread local address base that GDB needs. Perhaps that
descriptor is defined by the ABI. Anyway, given that
libthread_db calls this function without prompting (gdb
requesting tls base) I guess it needs info in there anyway. */
