Workaround a FreeBSD ptrace() bug with clearing thread events.

When multiple threads within a process wish to report STOPPED events
from wait(), the kernel picks one thread event as the thread event to
report.  The chosen thread event is retrieved via PT_LWPINFO by
passing the process ID as the request pid.  If multiple events are
pending, then the subsequent wait() after resuming a process will
report another STOPPED event after resuming the process to handle the
next thread event and so on.

A single thread event is cleared as a side effect of resuming the
process with PT_CONTINUE, PT_STEP, etc.  In older kernels, however,
the request pid was used to select which thread's event was cleared
rather than always clearing the event that was just reported.  To
avoid clearing the event of the wrong LWP, always pass the process ID
instead of an LWP ID to PT_CONTINUE or PT_SYSCALL.

In the case of stepping, the process ID cannot be used with PT_STEP
since it would step the thread that reported an event which may not be
the thread indicated by PTID.  For stepping, use PT_SETSTEP to enable
stepping on the desired thread before resuming the process via
PT_CONTINUE instead of using PT_STEP.

This manifested as a failure in the
gdb.threads/continue-pending-status.exp test.  Specifically, if thread
2 reported a breakpoint and the test thus switched to thread 3 before
continuing, thread 3's event (if any) was discarded and thread 2's
breakpoint remained pending and was reported a second time as a
duplicate event.  As a result, the PC was decremented twice for the
same breakpoint resulting in an illegal instruction fault on x86.

gdb/ChangeLog:

	* fbsd-nat.c (fbsd_resume): Use PT_SETSTEP for stepping and a
	wildcard process pid for super_resume for kernels with a
	specific bug.
