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.
