Fix gdb.threads/threads-after-exec.exp race

Simon noticed that gdb.threads/threads-after-exec.exp was racy.  You
can consistenly reproduce it (at git hash
319b460545dc79280e2904dcc280057cf71fb753), with:

  $ taskset -c 0 make check TESTS="gdb.threads/threads-after-exec.exp"

gdb.log shows:

  (...)

  (gdb) FAIL: gdb.threads/threads-after-exec.exp: maint info linux-lwps

The FAILs happen because the .exp file expects that after the exec,
the only thread has GDB thread number 1, but it has instead 3.

This is yet another case of zombie leader detection making things a
bit fuzzy.

In the passing case, we have:

 continue
 Continuing.
 [New Thread 0x7ffff7bff640 (LWP 603183)]
 [Thread 0x7ffff7bff640 (LWP 603183) exited]
 process 603180 is executing new program: .../gdb.threads/threads-after-exec/threads-after-exec

While in the failing case, we have (note remarks on the rhs):

 continue
 Continuing.
 [New Thread 0x7ffff7bff640 (LWP 600205)]
 [Thread 0x7ffff7f95740 (LWP 600202) exited]   <<< gdb deletes leader thread, thread 1.
 [New LWP 600202]                              <<< gdb adds it back -- this is now thread 3.
 [Thread 0x7ffff7bff640 (LWP 600205) exited]
 process 600202 is executing new program: .../threads-after-exec/threads-after-exec

The testcase only has two threads, yet GDB presented the exec for
thread 3.  This is GDB deleting the leader (the backend detected it
was zombie, due to the exec), and then adding the leader back when it
saw the exec event.

I've recorded some thoughts about this in PR gdb/31069.

For now, this commit just makes the testcase cope with the non-one
thread number, as the number is not important for what this test is
exercising.
