extended-remote mode, even though the test passes, we still see broken

All the "[Thread FOO] #NN stopped." above are bogus, as well as the
"Cannot remove breakpoints because program is no longer writable.",
which is a consequence.
The problem is that when we intercept a fork event, we should report
the event for the parent, only, and leave the child stopped, but not
report its stop event. GDB later decides whether to follow the parent
or the child. But because handle_extended_wait does not set the
child's last_status.kind to TARGET_WAITKIND_STOPPED, a
stop_all_threads/unstop_all_lwps sequence (e.g., from trying to access
memory) by mistake ends up queueing a SIGSTOP on the child, resuming
it, and then when that SIGSTOP is intercepted, because the LWP has
last_resume_kind set to resume_stop, gdbserver reports the stop to
GDB, as GDB_SIGNAL_0:
