Always emit =thread-exited notifications, even if silent
[Note: the testcased added by this commit depends on https://sourceware.org/pipermail/gdb-patches/2022-June/190259.html, otherwise GDB just crashes when detaching the core] Currently, in MI, =thread-created are always emitted, like: =thread-group-started,id="i1",pid="195680" =thread-created,id="1",group-id="i1" ... but on teardown, if the target uses exit_inferior_silent, then you'll only see the inferior exit notification (thread-group-exited), no notification for threads. The core target is one of the few targets that use exit_inferior_silent. Here's an example session: -target-select core $corefile =thread-group-started,id="i1",pid="195680" =thread-created,id="1",group-id="i1" ... ^connected,frame=.... (gdb) -target-detach =thread-group-exited,id="i1" ^done (gdb) This imbalance of emitting =thread-created but then not =thread-exited seems off to me. (And, it complicates changes I want to do to centralize emitting thread exit notifications for the CLI, which is why I'm looking at this.) And then, since most other targets use exit_inferior instead of exit_inferior_silent, MI is already emitting =thread-exited notifications when tearing down an inferior, for most targets. This commit makes MI always emit the =thread-exited notifications, even for exit_inferior_silent. Afterwards, when debugging a core, MI outputs: (gdb) -target-detach =thread-exited,id="1",group-id="i1" << new line =thread-group-exited,id="i1" ^done (gdb) Surprisingly, there's no MI testcase debugging a core file. This commit adds the first. Change-Id: I5100501a46f07b6bbad3e04d120c2562a51c93a4
