Put single-step breakpoints on the bp_location chain

This patch makes single-step breakpoints "real" breakpoints on the
global location list.

There are several benefits to this:

- It removes the currently limitation that only 2 single-step
  breakpoints can be inserted.  See an example here of a discussion
  around a case that wants more than 2, possibly unbounded:

  https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2014-03/msg00663.html

- makes software single-step work on read-only code regions.

  The logic to convert a software breakpoint to a hardware breakpoint
  if the memory map says the breakpoint address is in read only memory
  is in insert_bp_location.  Because software single-step breakpoints
  bypass all that go and straight to target_insert_breakpoint, we
  can't software single-step over read only memory.  This patch
  removes that limitation, and adds a test that makes sure that works,
  by forcing a code region to read-only with "mem LOW HIGH ro" and
  then stepping through that.

- Fixes PR breakpoints/9649

  This is an assertion failure in insert_single_step_breakpoint in
  breakpoint.c, because we may leave stale single-step breakpoints
  behind on error.

  The tests for stepping through read-only regions exercise the root
  cause of the bug, which is that we leave single-step breakpoints
  behind if we fail to insert any single-step breakpoint.  Deleting
  the single-step breakpoints in resume_cleanups,
  delete_just_stopped_threads_infrun_breakpoints, and
  fetch_inferior_event fixes this.  Without that, we'd no longer hit
  the assertion, as that code is deleted, but we'd instead run into
  errors/warnings trying to insert/remove the stale breakpoints on
  next resume.

- Paves the way to have multiple threads software single-stepping at
  the same time, leaving update_global_location_list to worry about
  duplicate locations.

- Makes the moribund location machinery aware of software single-step
  breakpoints, paving the way to enable software single-step on
  non-stop, instead of forcing serialized displaced stepping for all
  single steps.

- It's generaly cleaner.

  We no longer have to play games with single-step breakpoints
  inserted at the same address as regular breakpoints, like we
  recently had to do for 7.8.  See this discussion:

  https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2014-06/msg00052.html.

Tested on x86_64 Fedora 20, on top of my 'single-step breakpoints on
x86' series.

+	* gdb.base/breakpoint-in-ro-region.c (main): Add more instructions.
+	* gdb.base/breakpoint-in-ro-region.exp
+	(probe_target_hardware_step): New procedure.
+	(top level): Probe hardware stepping and hardware breakpoint

+	off.
