Add test that exercises the inferior being killed while stopped under GDB

This exercises the case of the inferior disappearing while GDB is
debugging it, such as something doing "kill -9 PID" while the program
is stopped under GDB or GDBserver.  This triggered a set of internal
errors, fixed by previous patches.
