Add support for LWP-based threads on FreeBSD.
Older versions of FreeBSD supported userland threading via a pure user-space threading library (N threads scheduled on 1 process) and a N:M model (N threads scheduled on M LWPs). However, modern FreeBSD versions only support a M:M threading model where each user thread is backed by a dedicated LWP. This thread target only supports this threading model. It also uses ptrace to query and alter LWP state directly rather than using libthread_db to simplify the implementation. FreeBSD recently gained support for reporting LWP events (birth and death of LWPs). GDB will use LWP events when present. For older systems it fetches the list of LWPs in the to_update_thread_list target op to update the list of threads on each stop. This target supports scheduler locking by using ptrace to suspend individual LWPs as necessary before resuming a process. gdb/ChangeLog: * configure.ac: Check for support for LWP names on FreeBSD. * fbsd-nat.c [PT_LWPINFO] New variable debug_fbsd_lwp.

+ FreeBSD's first thread support was via a "reentrant" version of libc
+ (libc_r) that first shipped in 2.2.7. This library multiplexed all
+ of the threads in a process onto a single kernel thread. This
+ library is supported via the bsd-uthread target.
+
+ FreeBSD 5.1 introduced two new threading libraries that made use of
+ multiple kernel threads. The first (libkse) scheduled M user
+ threads onto N (<= M) kernel threads (LWPs). The second (libthr)
+ bound each user thread to a dedicated kernel thread. libkse shipped
+ as the default threading library (libpthread).
+
+ FreeBSD 5.3 added a libthread_db to abstract the interface across
+ the various thread libraries (libc_r, libkse, and libthr).
+
+ FreeBSD 7.0 switched the default threading library from from libkse
+ to libpthread and removed libc_r.
+
+ FreeBSD 8.0 removed libkse and the in-kernel support for it. The
+ only threading library supported by 8.0 and later is libthr which
+ ties each user thread directly to an LWP. To simplify the
+ implementation, this target only supports LWP-backed threads using
+ ptrace directly rather than libthread_db.
+
+ FreeBSD 11.0 introduced LWP event reporting via PT_LWP_EVENTS.
