[rfc] catch syscall

- Subject: [rfc] catch syscall
For a long time I've wanted to be able to mix strace-like syscall tracing
with the awesome power of gdb. Other people have mentioned the idea a few
times over the years, but nothing ever seems to get done. So I did something.
The patch below is far from ready for inclusion. I only started looking at
gdb's internals a few days ago and there are still parts I don't understand.
But it does work, at least in a few simple tests. This seems like a good time
to have someone look it over and tell me what should be done differently.
The added feature is a new command, "catch syscall", which is much like
"catch fork" and "catch exec" (in fact a lot of the new code is made up of
lightly-modified copies of the code blocks implementing those). By saying
"catch syscall" the user requests that the program stop on entry to or exit
from a syscall.
Implementation outline:
1. PTRACE_O_TRACESYSGOOD is enabled to make syscall stops distinguishable
from random SIGTRAPs
2. When the inferior is resumed, if there is an enabled syscall catchpoint,
PTRACE_SYSCALL is used instead of PTRACE_CONT.
3. When the inferior stops, the special signal value 0x80|SIGTRAP is
recognized and the syscall catchpoint claims responsibility for the
stop.
Here's a sample of a program being traced. The program is hello world written
in assembly without linking to libc, so it only makes 2 syscalls: write and
_exit. I've added extra annotations starting with '#'
