Honour SIGILL and SIGSEGV in cancel breakpoint and event lwp selection

Browse Source 
I see the following fail on arm-none-linux-gnueabi testing,

(gdb) continue^M
Continuing.^M
^M
Program received signal SIGILL, Illegal instruction.^M
[Switching to Thread 1003]^M
handler (signo=10) at
/scratch/yqi/arm-none-linux-gnueabi/src/gdb-trunk/gdb/testsuite/gdb.threads/sigstep-threads.c:33^M
33        tgkill (getpid (), gettid (), SIGUSR1);       /* step-2 */^M
(gdb) FAIL: gdb.threads/sigstep-threads.exp: continue

the cause is that GDBserver doesn't cancel the breakpoint if the stop
signal is SIGILL.  The kernel used here is a little old, 2.6.x, and
doesn't translate SIGILL to SIGTRAP when program hits breakpoint
instruction (which is an illegal instruction actually).  GDB and
GDBserver can translate SIGILL to SIGTRAP under certain circumstance,
so it is not a problem here.  See gdbserver/linux-low.c:linux_wait_1

  /* If this event was not handled before, and is not a SIGTRAP, we
     report it.  SIGILL and SIGSEGV are also treated as traps in case
     a breakpoint is inserted at the current PC.  If this target does
     not support internal breakpoints at all, we also report the
     SIGTRAP without further processing; it's of no concern to us.  */
  maybe_internal_trap
    = (supports_breakpoints ()
       && (WSTOPSIG (w) == SIGTRAP
	   || ((WSTOPSIG (w) == SIGILL
		|| WSTOPSIG (w) == SIGSEGV)
	       && (*the_low_target.breakpoint_at) (event_child->stop_pc))));

However, SIGILL and SIGSEGV is not considered when cancelling
breakpoint, which causes the fail above.  That is, when GDB is doing
software single step on address ADDR, both thread A and thread B hits the
software single step breakpoint, and get SIGILL.  GDB selects the event
from thread A, removes the software single step breakpoint, and resume
the program.  The event (SIGILL) from thread B is reported to GDB, but
GDB doesn't regard this SIGILL as SIGTRAP, because the breakpoint on
address ADDR was removed, so GDB reports "Program received signal
SIGILL".

The patch is to allow calling cancel_breakpoint if the signal is
SIGILL and SIGSEGV.  This patch fixes the fail above.  Likewise, event
lwp selection should honour SIGILL and SIGSEGV too.
