Pedro Alves e671cd59d7 Per-inferior target_terminal state, fix PR gdb/13211, more
In my multi-target branch I ran into problems with GDB's terminal
handling that exist in master as well, with multi-inferior debugging.

This patch adds a testcase for said problems
(gdb.multi/multi-term-settings.exp), fixes the problems, fixes PR
gdb/13211 as well (and adds a testcase for that too,
gdb.base/interrupt-daemon.exp).

The basis of the problem I ran into is the following.  Consider a
scenario where you have:

 - inferior 1 - started with "attach", process is running on some
   other terminal.

 - inferior 2 - started with "run", process is sharing gdb's terminal.

In this scenario, when you stop/resume both inferiors, you want GDB to
save/restore the terminal settings of inferior 2, the one that is
sharing GDB's terminal.  I.e., you want inferior 2 to "own" the
terminal (in target_terminal::is_ours/target_terminal::is_inferior
sense).

Unfortunately, that's not what you get currently.  Because GDB doesn't
know whether an attached inferior is actually sharing GDB's terminal,
it tries to save/restore its settings anyway, ignoring errors.  In
this case, this is pointless, because inferior 1 is running on a
different terminal, but GDB doesn't know better.

And then, because it is only possible to have the terminal settings of
a single inferior be in effect at a time, or make one inferior/pgrp be
the terminal's foreground pgrp (aka, only one inferior can "own" the
terminal, ignoring fork children here), if GDB happens to try to
restore the terminal settings of inferior 1 first, then GDB never
restores the terminal settings of inferior 2.

This patch fixes that and a few things more along the way:

 - Moves enum target_terminal::terminal_state out of the
   target_terminal class (it's currently private) and makes it a
   scoped enum so that it can be easily used elsewhere.

 - Replaces the inflow.c:terminal_is_ours boolean with a
   target_terminal_state variable.  This allows distinguishing is_ours
   and is_ours_for_output states.  This allows finally making
   child_terminal_ours_1 do something with its "output_only"
   parameter.

 - Makes each inferior have its own copy of the
   is_ours/is_ours_for_output/is_inferior state.

 - Adds a way for GDB to tell whether the inferior is sharing GDB's
   terminal.  Works best on Linux and Solaris; the fallback works just
   as well as currently.

 - With that, we can remove the inf->attach_flag tests from
   child_terminal_inferior/child_terminal_ours.

 - Currently target_ops.to_ours is responsible for both saving the
   current inferior's terminal state, and restoring gdb's state.
   Because each inferior has its own terminal state (possibly handled
   by different targets in a multi-target world, even), we need to
   split the inferior-saving part from the gdb-restoring part.  The
   patch adds a new target_ops.to_save_inferior target method for
   that.

 - Adds a new target_terminal::save_inferior() function, so that
   sequences like:

     scoped_restore_terminal_state save_state;
     target_terminal::ours_for_output ();

   ... restore back inferiors that were
   target_terminal_state::is_inferior before back to is_inferior, and
   leaves inferiors that were is_ours alone.

 - Along the way, this adds a default implementation of
   target_pass_ctrlc to inflow.c (for inf-child.c), that handles
   passing the Ctrl-C to a process running on GDB's terminal or to
   some other process otherwise.

 - Similarly, adds a new target default implementation of
   target_interrupt, for the "interrupt" command.  The current
   implementation of this hook in inf-ptrace.c kills the whole process
   group, but that's incorrect/undesirable because we may not be
   attached to all processes in the process group.  And also, it's
   incorrect because inferior_process_group() doesn't really return
   the inferior's real process group id if the inferior is not a
   process group leader...  This is the cause of PR gdb/13211 [1],
   which this patch fixes.  While at it, that target method's "ptid"
   parameter is eliminated, because it's not really used.

 - A new test is included that exercises and fixes PR gdb/13211, and
   also fixes a GDB issue reported on stackoverflow that I ran into
   while working on this [2].  The problem is similar to PR gdb/13211,
   except that it also triggers with Ctrl-C.  When debugging a daemon
   (i.e., a process that disconnects from the controlling terminal and
   is not a process group leader, then Ctrl-C doesn't work, you just
   can't interrupt the inferior at all, resulting in a hung debug
   session.  The problem is that since the inferior is no longer
   associated with gdb's session / controlling terminal, then trying
   to put the inferior in the foreground fails.  And so Ctrl-C never
   reaches the inferior directly.  pass_signal is only used when the
   inferior is attached, but that is not the case here.  This is fixed
   by the new child_pass_ctrlc.  Without the fix, the new
   interrupt-daemon.exp testcase fails with timeout waiting for a
   SIGINT that never arrives.

https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=13211

[2] GDB not reacting Ctrl-C when after fork() and setsid()
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/46101292/gdb-not-reacting-ctrl-c-when-after-fork-and-setsid

Note this patch does _not_ fix:

 - PR gdb/14559 - The 'interrupt' command does not work if sigwait is in use
   https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=14559

 - PR gdb/9425 - When using "sigwait" GDB doesn't trap SIGINT. Ctrl+C terminates program when should break gdb.
   https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=9425

The only way to fix that that I know of (without changing the kernel)
is to make GDB put inferiors in a separate session (create a
pseudo-tty master/slave pair, make the inferior run with the slave as
its terminal, and have gdb pump output/input on the master end).

		   README for GNU development tools

This directory contains various GNU compilers, assemblers, linkers, 
debuggers, etc., plus their support routines, definitions, and documentation.

If you are receiving this as part of a GDB release, see the file gdb/README.
If with a binutils release, see binutils/README;  if with a libg++ release,
see libg++/README, etc.  That'll give you info about this
package -- supported targets, how to use it, how to report bugs, etc.

It is now possible to automatically configure and build a variety of
tools with one command.  To build all of the tools contained herein,
run the ``configure'' script here, e.g.:

	./configure 
	make

To install them (by default in /usr/local/bin, /usr/local/lib, etc),
then do:
	make install

(If the configure script can't determine your type of computer, give it
the name as an argument, for instance ``./configure sun4''.  You can
use the script ``config.sub'' to test whether a name is recognized; if
it is, config.sub translates it to a triplet specifying CPU, vendor,
and OS.)

If you have more than one compiler on your system, it is often best to
explicitly set CC in the environment before running configure, and to
also set CC when running make.  For example (assuming sh/bash/ksh):

	CC=gcc ./configure
	make

A similar example using csh:

	setenv CC gcc
	./configure
	make

Much of the code and documentation enclosed is copyright by
the Free Software Foundation, Inc.  See the file COPYING or
COPYING.LIB in the various directories, for a description of the
GNU General Public License terms under which you can copy the files.

REPORTING BUGS: Again, see gdb/README, binutils/README, etc., for info
on where and how to report problems.
