Add a test case for fast tracepoints' locking mechanism
When installing a fast tracepoint, we create a jump pad with a spin-lock. This way, only one thread can collect a given tracepoint at any time. This test case checks that this lock actually works as expected. This test works by creating a function which overrides the in-process agent library's gdb_collect function. On start up, GDBserver will ask GDB with the 'qSymbol' packet about symbols present in the inferior. GDB will reply with the gdb_agent_gdb_collect function from the test case instead of the one from the agent. gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog: * gdb.trace/ftrace-lock.c: New file. * gdb.trace/ftrace-lock.exp: New file.
