RFA: Collect unexplained stopped threads in lin-lwp


[Michael, you more or less approved this patch in December, but it's seen a
few changes - linux_record_stopped_pid isn't a dummy any more.]

This patch just accepts processes we aren't currently debugging which report
a SIGSTOP, and throws them onto a list.  Not very useful by itself, but my
next patch will both cause this to happen (by enabling fork events) and
empty the list when it receives fork events.  I'm only submitting it
separately, because it was the last meaningful piece I could break out.

Is this OK?

	* config/nm-linux.h (linux_record_stopped_pid): New prototype.
	* lin-lwp.c (child_wait): Call linux_record_stopped_pid.
	(lin_lwp_wait): Likewise.  Update comments.
	* linux-nat.c (struct simple_pid_list, add_to_pid_list)
	(pull_pid_from_list, linux_record_stopped_pid): New.
