Add multiple-CPU support in ravenscar-thread.c
This patch reworks the ravenscar-thread layer to remove the assumption that the target only has 1 CPU. In particular, when connected to a QEMU target over the remote protocol, QEMU reports each CPU as one thread. This patch adapts the ravenscar-thread layer to this, and adds a large comment explaining the general design of this unit. gdb/ChangeLog: * ada-lang.h (ada_get_task_info_from_ptid): Add declaration. * ada-tasks.c (ada_get_task_info_from_ptid): New function. * ravenscar-thread.c: Add into comment. (base_magic_null_ptid): Delete. (base_ptid): Change documentation. (ravenscar_active_task): Renames ravenscar_running_thread. All callers updated throughout. (is_ravenscar_task, ravenscar_get_thread_base_cpu): New function. (ravenscar_task_is_currently_active): Likewise. (get_base_thread_from_ravenscar_task): Ditto. (ravenscar_update_inferior_ptid): Adjust to handle multiple CPUs. (ravenscar_runtime_initialized): Likewise. (get_running_thread_id): Add new parameter "cpu". Adjust implementation to handle this new parameter. (ravenscar_fetch_registers): Small adjustment to use is_ravenscar_task and ravenscar_task_is_currently_active in order to decide whether to use the target beneath or this module's arch_ops. (ravenscar_store_registers, ravenscar_prepare_to_store): Likewise. (ravenscar_stopped_by_sw_breakpoint): Use get_base_thread_from_ravenscar_task to get the underlying thread, rather than using base_ptid. (ravenscar_stopped_by_hw_breakpoint, ravenscar_stopped_by_watchpoint) (ravenscar_stopped_data_address, ravenscar_core_of_thread): Likewise. (ravenscar_inferior_created): Do not set base_magic_null_ptid.

+/* This module provides support for "Ravenscar" tasks (Ada) when
+ debugging on bare-metal targets.
+
+ The typical situation is when debugging a bare-metal target over
+ the remote protocol. In that situation, the system does not know
+ about high-level comcepts such as threads, only about some code
+ running on one or more CPUs. And since the remote protocol does not
+ provide any handling for CPUs, the de facto standard for handling
+ them is to have one thread per CPU, where the thread's ptid has
+ its lwp field set to the CPU number (eg: 1 for the first CPU,
+ 2 for the second one, etc). This module will make that assumption.
+
+ This module then creates and maintains the list of threads based
+ on the list of Ada tasks, with one thread per Ada tasks. The convention
+ is that threads corresponding to the CPUs (see assumption above)
+ have a ptid_t of the form (PID, LWP, 0), which threads corresponding
+ to our Ada tasks have a ptid_t of the form (PID, 0, TID) where TID
+ is the Ada task's ID as extracted from Ada runtime information.
+
+ Switching to a given Ada tasks (or its underlying thread) is performed
+ by fetching the registers of that tasks from the memory area where
+ the registers were saved. For any of the other operations, the
+ operation is performed by first finding the CPU on which the task
+ is running, switching to its corresponding ptid, and then performing
+ the operation on that ptid using the target beneath us. */
