Tom de Vries 4778a5f87d [gdb] Fix hang after ext sigkill
Consider the test-case from this patch, compiled with pthread support:
...
$ gcc gdb/testsuite/gdb.threads/killed-outside.c -lpthread -g
...

After running to all_started, we can print pid:
...
$ gdb a.out -ex "b all_started" -ex run -ex "delete 1" -ex "p pid"
...
Reading symbols from a.out...
Breakpoint 1 at 0x40072b: file killed-outside.c, line 29.
Starting program: /data/gdb_versions/devel/a.out
[Thread debugging using libthread_db enabled]
Using host libthread_db library "/lib64/libthread_db.so.1".
[New Thread 0x7ffff77fc700 (LWP 3155)]

Thread 1 "a.out" hit Breakpoint 1, all_started () at killed-outside.c:29
29      }
$1 = 3151
(gdb)
...

If we then kill the inferior using an external SIGKILL:
...
(gdb) shell kill -9 3151
...
and subsequently continue:
...
(gdb) c
Continuing.

<repeat>
...
gdb hangs repeating the same warning.  Typing control-C no longer helps,
and we have to kill gdb.

This is a regression since commit 873657b9e8 "Preserve selected thread in
all-stop w/ background execution".  The commit adds a
scoped_restore_current_thread typed variable restore_thread to
fetch_inferior_event, and the hang is caused by the constructor throwing an
exception.

Fix this by catching the exception in the constructor.

Build and reg-tested on x86_64-linux.
