The test gdb.threads/fork-plus-threads.exp fails since 08bdefb58b78
("gdb: make inferior_list use intrusive_list"):

    FAIL: gdb.threads/fork-plus-threads.exp: detach-on-fork=off: only inferior 1 left

Looking at the log, we see that we are left with a bunch of inferiors in
the detach-on-fork=off case:

    info inferiors^M
      Num  Description       Connection           Executable        ^M
    * 1    <null>                                 <snip>/fork-plus-threads ^M
      2    <null>                                 <snip>/fork-plus-threads ^M

      6    <null>                                 <snip>/fork-plus-threads ^M
      7    <null>                                 <snip>/fork-plus-threads ^M
      8    <null>                                 <snip>/fork-plus-threads ^M
      9    <null>                                 <snip>/fork-plus-threads ^M

    (gdb) FAIL: gdb.threads/fork-plus-threads.exp: detach-on-fork=off: only inferior 1 left

when we expect to have just one.  The problem is prune_inferiors not
pruning inferiors.  And this is caused by all_inferiors_safe not
actually iterating on inferiors.  The current implementation:

  inline all_inferiors_safe_range
  all_inferiors_safe ()
  {
    return {};
  }

default-constructs an all_inferiors_safe_range, which default-constructs
an all_inferiors_safe_iterator as its m_begin field, which
default-constructs a all_inferiors_iterator.  A default-constructed
all_inferiors_iterator is an end iterator, which means we have
constructed an (end,end) all_inferiors_safe_range.

We actually need to pass down the list on which we want to iterator
(that is the inferior_list global), so that all_inferiors_iterator's
first constructor is chosen.  We also pass nullptr as the proc_target
filter.  In this case, we don't do any filtering, but if in the future
all_inferiors_safe needed to allow filtering on process target (like
all_inferiors does), we could pass down a process target pointer.

basic_safe_iterator's constructor needs to be changed to allow
constructing the wrapped iterator with multiple arguments, not just one.

With this, gdb.threads/fork-plus-threads.exp is passing once again for
me.
