Lancelot SIX c6479f8b2a Process exit status is leader exit status testcase
This adds a multi-threaded testcase that has all threads in the
process exit with a different exit code, and ensures that GDB reports
the thread group leader's exit status as the whole-process exit
status.  Before this set of patches, this would randomly report the
exit code of some other thread, and thus fail.

Tested on Linux-x86_64, native and gdbserver.

# GDB must always report the process's exit status based on the exit
# status of the thread group leader thread. Test that when multiple
# threads exit simultaneously, GDB doesn't confuse the non-leader
# threads' exit status for the process's exit status. GDB used to
# have a race condition that led to randomly handling this
# incorrectly.
#
# Since the improper behavior is racy in nature, this test is not
# expected to be able to reproduce the error reliably. Multiple
# executions (or increasing the number of iterations) might be
# required to reproduce the error with a misbehaving GDB.
