Add test for PR18214 and PR18216 - multiple step-overs with queued signals
Both PRs are triggered by the same use case. PR18214 is about software single-step targets. On those, the 'resume' code that detects that we're stepping over a breakpoint and delivering a signal at the same time: /* Currently, our software single-step implementation leads to different results than hardware single-stepping in one situation: when stepping into delivering a signal which has an associated signal handler, hardware single-step will stop at the first instruction of the handler, while software single-step will simply skip execution of the handler. ... Fortunately, we can at least fix this particular issue. We detect here the case where we are about to deliver a signal while software single-stepping with breakpoints removed. In this situation, we revert the decisions to remove all breakpoints and insert single- step breakpoints, and instead we install a step-resume breakpoint at the current address, deliver the signal without stepping, and once we arrive back at the step-resume breakpoint, actually step over the breakpoint we originally wanted to step over. */ doesn't handle the case of _another_ thread also needing to step over a breakpoint. Because the other thread is just resumed at the PC where it had stopped and a breakpoint is still inserted there, the thread immediately re-traps the same breakpoint. This test exercises that. On software single-step targets, it fails like this: KFAIL: gdb.threads/multiple-step-overs.exp: displaced=off: signal thr3: continue to sigusr1_handler KFAIL: gdb.threads/multiple-step-overs.exp: displaced=off: signal thr2: continue to sigusr1_handler gdb.log (simplified): (gdb) continue Continuing.

(main): Install it as SIGUSR1 handler. * gdb.threads/multiple-step-overs.exp (setup): Remove 'prefix' parameter. Always use "setup" as prefix. Toggle "set displaced-stepping" off/on depending on global. Don't switch to thread 1 here. (top level): Add displaced stepping "off/on" test axis. Update "setup" calls. Wrap each subtest with with_test_prefix. Test continuing with a queued signal in each thread.
