PR remote/18965: vforkdone stop reply should indicate parent PID
The vforkdone stop reply misses indicating the thread ID of the vfork parent which the event relates to: @cindex vfork events, remote reply @item vfork The packet indicates that @code{vfork} was called, and @var{r} is the thread ID of the new child process. Refer to @ref{thread-id syntax} for the format of the @var{thread-id} field. This packet is only applicable to targets that support vfork events. @cindex vforkdone events, remote reply @item vforkdone The packet indicates that a child process created by a vfork has either called @code{exec} or terminated, so that the address spaces of the parent and child process are no longer shared. The @var{r} part is ignored. This packet is only applicable to targets that support vforkdone events. Unfortunately, this is not just a documentation issue. GDBserver is really not specifying the thread ID. I noticed because in non-stop mode, gdb complains: [Thread 6089.6089] #1 stopped. #0 0x0000003615a011f0 in ?? () 0x0000003615a011f0 in ??

Consider e.g., that in all-stop, you may be debugging more than one process at the same time. You continue, and both processes vfork. So when you next get a T05vforkdone, there's no way to tell which of the parent processes is done with the vfork. Tests will be added later.
