I left making inferior::detaching a bool to a separate patch, because
doing that makes a make_cleanup_restore_integer call in
infrun.c:prepare_for_detach no longer compile (passing a 'bool *' when
an 'int *' is expected). Since we want to get rid of cleanups anyway,
I looked at converting that to a scoped_restore. However,
prepare_for_detach wants to discard the cleanup on success, and
scoped_restore doesn't have an equivalent for that. So I added one --
I called it "release()" because it seems like a natural fit in the way
standard components call similarly-spirited methods, and, it's also
what the proposal for a generic scope guard calls it too, AFAICS:
http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/papers/2014/n4189.pdf
I've added some scoped_guard unit tests, while at it.
