Fix Solaris regression (PR tdep/30252)
PR tdep/30252 reports that using GDB on Solaris fails an assertion in
target_resume:
target.c:2648: internal-error: target_resume: Assertion `inferior_ptid != null_ptid' failed.
A problem internal to GDB has been detected,
further debugging may prove unreliable.
Quit this debugging session? (y or n)
The backtrace, after running it through c++filt, looks like:

...
The problem is that the procfs backend, while inside target_wait,
called target_resume without switching to the leader thread of that
resumption.
The target_resume interface is:
/* Resume execution (or prepare for execution) of the current thread
(INFERIOR_PTID), while optionally letting other threads of the
current process or all processes run free.
...
Thus calling target_resume with inferior_ptid == null_ptid is bogus.
target_wait (which leads to procfs_target::wait on Solaris) is called
with inferior_ptid == null_ptid on entry exactly to help catch such
bogus uses.
From the backtrace, it seems that the relevant line in question is
procfs.c:2187:
2186 /* How to keep going without returning to wfi: */
2187 target_continue_no_signal (ptid);
2188 goto wait_again;
target_continue_no_signal is a small wrapper around target_resume,
which would make sense.
The fix is to not call target_resume or go via the target stack at
all. Instead, factor out a new proc_resume function out of
procfs_target::resume, and call that. The new function does not rely
on inferior_ptid.
I've not been able to test it myself, but Petr confirmed it fixes the
assertion failure with his test case, and Marcel Telka also confirmed
it solves the problem.
