  Currently, if the remote target is not running in non-stop mode, then,
when GDB calls remote_target::stop, we end up sending an interrupt
packet \x03 to the remote target.

If the user interrupts the inferior from the GDB prompt (e.g. by
typing Ctrl-c), then GDB calls remote_target::interrupt, which also
ends up sending the interrupt packet.

The problem here is that both of these mechanisms end up sending the
interrupt packet, which means, when the target stops with a SIGINT,
and this is reported back to GDB, we have no choice but to report this
to the user as a SIGINT stop event.

Now maybe this is the correct thing to do, after all the target has
been stopped with SIGINT.  However, this leads to an unfortunate
change in behaviour.

When running in non-stop mode, and remote_target::stop is called, the
target will be stopped with a vCont packet, and this stop is then
reported back to GDB as GDB_SIGNAL_0, this will cause GDB to print a
message like:

  Program stopped.

Or:

  Thread NN "binary name" stopped.

In contrast, when non-stop mode is off, we get messages like:

  Program received SIGINT, Segmentation fault.

Or:

  Thread NN "binary name" received SIGINT, Segmentation fault.

In this commit I propose a mechanism where we can track that a stop
has been requested for a particular thread through
remote_target::stop, then, when the stop arrives, we can convert the
SIGINT to a GDB_SIGNAL_0.  With this done GDB will now display the
"stopped" based messages rather than the "received SIGINT" messages.

Two of the tests added in the previous commit exposed this issue.  In
the previous commit the tests looked for either of the above
patterns.  In this commit I've updated these tests to only look for
the "stopped" based messages.
