gdb/doc: revert previous vforkdone change
The previous manual change was wrong. The vfork parent thread ID
should be reported with the usual "thread" magic register:
Sending packet: $vCont;c:p7260.7260#1e...Packet received: OK
- Notification received: Stop:T05vforkdone:;
+ Notification received: Stop:T05vforkdone:;thread:p7260.7260
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
This is already how the parent is reported in the vfork/fork events,
and is actually what the fix made gdbserver do. Following the
documentation change, the event would have been reported like this
instead:
Notification received: Stop:T05vforkdone:p7260.7260
