testsuite: tcl exec& -> 'kill -9 $pid' is racy (attach-many-short-lived-thread.exp races and others)

The buildbots show that attach-many-short-lived-thread.exp is racy.
But after staring at debug logs and playing with SystemTap scripts for
a (long) while, I figured out that neither GDB, nor the kernel nor the
test's program itself are at fault.

The problem is simply that the testsuite machinery is currently
subject to PID-reuse races.  The attach-many-short-lived-threads.c
test program just happens to be much more susceptible to trigger this
race because threads and processes share the same number space on
Linux, and the test spawns many many short lived threads in
succession, thus enlarging the race window a lot.

Part of the problem is that several tests spawn processes with "exec&"
(in order to test the "attach" command) , and then at the end of the
test, to make sure things are cleaned up, issue a 'remote_spawn "kill
-p $testpid"'.  Since with tcl's "exec&", tcl itself is responsible
for reaping the process's exit status, when we go kill the process,
testpid may have already exited _and_ its status may have (and often
has) been reaped already.  Thus it can happen that another process
meanwhile reuses $testpid, and that "kill" command kills the wrong
process...  Frequently, that happens to be
attach-many-short-lived-thread, but this explains other test's races
as well.

In the attach-many-short-lived-threads test, it sometimes manifests
like this:

 (gdb) file /home/pedro/gdb/mygit/build/gdb/testsuite/gdb.threads/attach-many-short-lived-threads
 Reading symbols from /home/pedro/gdb/mygit/build/gdb/testsuite/gdb.threads/attach-many-short-lived-threads...done.

 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

 set breakpoint always-inserted on
 (gdb) PASS: gdb.threads/attach-many-short-lived-threads.exp: iter 1: set breakpoint always-inserted on

Other times the process dies while the test is ongoing (the process is
ptrace-stopped):

 (gdb) print again = 1
 Cannot access memory at address 0x6020cc
 (gdb) FAIL: gdb.threads/attach-many-short-lived-threads.exp: iter 2: reset timer in the inferior

(Recall that on Linux, SIGKILL is not interceptable)

And other times it dies just while we're detaching:

 $4 = 319
 (gdb) PASS: gdb.threads/attach-many-short-lived-threads.exp: iter 2: print seconds_left
 detach
 Can't detach Thread 0x7fb13b7de700 (LWP 1842): No such process
 (gdb) FAIL: gdb.threads/attach-many-short-lived-threads.exp: iter 2: detach

GDB mishandles the latter (it should ignore ESRCH while detaching just
like when continuing), but that's another story.

The fix here is to change spawn_wait_for_attach to use Expect's
'spawn' command instead of Tcl's 'exec&' to spawn programs, because
with spawn we control when to wait for/reap the process.  That allows
killing the process by PID without being subject to pid-reuse races,
because even if the process is already dead, the kernel won't reuse
the process's PID until the zombie is reaped.

The other part of the problem lies in DejaGnu itself, unfortunately.
I have occasionally seen tests (attach-many-short-lived-threads
included, but not only that one) die with a random inexplicable
SIGTERM too, and that too is caused by the same reason, except that in
that case, the rogue SIGTERM is sent from this bit in DejaGnu's remote.exp:

    exec sh -c "exec > /dev/null 2>&1 && (kill -2 $pgid || kill -2 $pid) && sleep 5 && (kill $pgid || kill $pid) && sleep 5 && (kill -9 $pgid || kill -9 $pid) &"
    ...
    catch "wait -i $shell_id"

Even if the program exits promptly, that whole cascade of kills
carries on in the background, thus potentially killing the poor
process that manages to reuse $pid...

I sent a fix for that to the DejaGnu list:
 http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/dejagnu/2015-07/msg00000.html

With both patches in place, I haven't seen
attach-many-short-lived-threads.exp fail again.

Tested on x86_64 Fedora 20, native, gdbserver and extended-gdbserver.
