  This patch adds non-stop support to the native Windows target.

This is made possible by the ContinueDebugEvent DBG_REPLY_LATER flag:

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/api/debugapi/nf-debugapi-continuedebugevent

  Supported in Windows 10, version 1507 or above, this flag causes
  dwThreadId to replay the existing breaking event after the target
  continues. By calling the SuspendThread API against dwThreadId, a
             ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
  debugger can resume other threads in the process and later return to
  ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
  the breaking.
  ^^^^^^^^^^^^

The patch adds a new comment section in gdb/windows-nat.c providing an
overall picture of how all-stop / non-stop work.

Without DBG_REPLY_LATER, if we SuspendThread the thread, and then
immediately ContinueDebugThread(DBG_CONTINUE) before getting back to
the prompt, we could still have non-stop mode working, however, then
users wouldn't have a chance to decide whether to pass the signal to
the inferior the next time they resume the program, as that is done by
passing DBG_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED to ContinueDebugEvent, and that has
already been called.

The patch adds that DBG_REPLY_LATER handling, and also adds support
for target_stop, so the core can pause threads at its discretion.
This pausing does not use the same mechanisms used in
windows_nat_target::interrupt, as those inject a new thread in the
inferior.  Instead, for each thread the core wants paused, it uses
SuspendThread, and enqueues a pending GDB_SIGNAL_0 stop on the thread.

Since DBG_REPLY_LATER only exists on Windows 10 and later, we only
enable non-stop mode on Windows 10 and later.

Since having the target backend work in non-stop mode adds features
compared to old all-stop mode (signal/exception passing/suppression is
truly per-thread), this patch also switches the backend to do
all-stop-on-top-of-non-stop, by having
windows_nat_target::always_non_stop_p return true if non-stop mode is
possible.  To be clear, this just changes how the backend works in
coordination with infrun.  The user-visible mode default mode is still
all-stop.  The difference is that infrun is responsible for stopping
all threads when needed, instead of the backend (actually the kernel)
always doing that before reporting an event to infrun.

There is no displaced stepping support, but that's "just" a missed
optimization to be done later.

Cygwin signals handling was a major headache, but I managed to get it
working.  See the "Cygwin signals" description section I added at the
top of windows-nat.c.

+
+all-stop
+========
+
+In all-stop mode, there is only ever one Windows debug event in
+flight. When we receive an event from WaitForDebugEvent, the kernel
+has already implicitly suspended all the threads of the process.  We
+report the breaking event to the core.  When the core decides to
+resume the inferior, it calls windows_nat_target:resume, which
+triggers a ContinueDebugEvent call.  This call makes all unsuspended
+threads schedulable again, and we go back to waiting for the next
+event in WaitForDebugEvent.
+
+non-stop
+========
+
+For non-stop mode, we utilize the DBG_REPLY_LATER flag in the
+ContinueDebugEvent function.  According to Microsoft:
+
+ "This flag causes dwThreadId to replay the existing breaking event
+ after the target continues.  By calling the SuspendThread API against
+ dwThreadId, a debugger can resume other threads in the process and
+ later return to the breaking."
+
+To enable non-stop mode, windows_nat_target::wait suspends the thread,
+calls 'ContinueForDebugEvent(..., DBG_REPLY_LATER)', and sets the
+process_thread thread to wait for the next event using
+WaitForDebugEvent, all before returning the original breaking event to
+the core.
+
+When the user/core finally decides to resume the inferior thread that
+reported the event, we unsuspend it using ResumeThread.  Unlike in
+all-stop mode, we don't call ContinueDebugEvent then, as it has
+already been called when the event was first encountered.  By making
+the inferior thread schedulable again, WaitForDebugEvent re-reports
+the same event (due to the earlier DBG_REPLY_LATER).  In
+windows_nat_target::wait, we detect this delayed re-report and call
+ContinueDebugEvent on the thread, instructing the process_thread
+thread to continue waiting for the next event.
+
+During the initial thread resumption in windows_nat_target::resume, we
+recorded the dwContinueStatus argument to be passed to the last
+ContinueDebugEvent.  See windows_thread_info::auto_cont for details.
+
+Note that with this setup, in non-stop mode, every stopped thread has
+its own independent last-reported Windows debug event.  Therefore, we
+can decide on a per-thread basis whether to pass the thread's
+exception (DBG_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED / DBG_CONTINUE) to the inferior.
+This per-thread decision is not possible in all-stop mode, where we
+only call ContinueDebugEvent for the thread that last reported a stop,
+at windows_nat_target::resume time.
+
+Cygwin signals
+==============
+
+The Cygwin runtime always spawns a "sig" thread, which is responsible
+for receiving signal delivery requests, and hijacking the signaled
+thread's execution to make it run the signal handler.  This is all
+explained here:
+
+  https://sourceware.org/cgit/newlib-cygwin/tree/winsup/cygwin/DevDocs/how-signals-work.txt
+
+There's a custom debug api protocol between GDB and Cygwin to be able
+to intercept Cygwin signals before they're seen by the signaled
+thread, just like the debugger intercepts signals with ptrace on
+Linux.  This Cygwin debugger protocol isn't well documented, though.
+Here's what happens: when the special "sig" thread in the Cygwin
+runtime is about to deliver a signal to the target thread, it calls
+OutputDebugString with a special message:
+
+  https://sourceware.org/cgit/newlib-cygwin/tree/winsup/cygwin/exceptions.cc?id=4becae7bd833e183c789821a477f25898ed0db1f#n1866
+
+OutputDebugString is a function that is part of the Windows debug API.
+It generates an OUTPUT_DEBUG_STRING_EVENT event out of
+WaitForDebugEvent in the debugger, which freezes the inferior, like
+any other event.
+
+GDB recognizes the special Cygwin signal marker string, and is able to
+report the intercepted Cygwin signal to the user.
+
+With the windows-nat backend in all-stop mode, if the user decides to
+single-step the signaled thread, GDB will set the trace flag in the
+signaled thread to force it to single-step, and then re-resume the
+program with ContinueDebugEvent.  This resumes both the signaled
+thread, and the special "sig" thread.  The special "sig" thread
+decides to make the signaled thread run the signal handler, so it
+suspends it with SuspendThread, does a read-modify-write operation
+with GetThreadContext/SetThreadContext, and then re-resumes it with
+ResumeThread.  This is all done here:
+
+   https://sourceware.org/cgit/newlib-cygwin/tree/winsup/cygwin/exceptions.cc?id=4becae7bd833e183c789821a477f25898ed0db1f#n1011
+
+That resulting register context will still have its trace flag set, so
+the signaled thread ends up single-stepping the signal handler and
+reporting the trace stop to GDB, which reports the stop where the
+thread is now stopped, inside the signal handler.
+
+That is the intended behavior; stepping into a signal handler is a
+feature that works on other ports as well, including x86 GNU/Linux,
+for example.  This is exercised by the gdb.base/sigstep.exp testcase.
+
+Now, making that work with the backend in non-stop mode (the default
+on Windows 10 and above) is tricker.  In that case, when GDB sees the
+magic OUTPUT_DEBUG_STRING_EVENT event mentioned above, reported for
+the "sig" thread, GDB reports the signal stop for the target signaled
+thread to the user (leaving that thread stopped), but, unlike with an
+all-stop backend, in non-stop, only the evented/signaled thread should
+be stopped, so the backend would normally want to re-resume the Cygwin
+runtime's "sig" thread after handling the OUTPUT_DEBUG_STRING_EVENT
+event, like it does with any other event out of WaitForDebugEvent that
+is not reported to the core.  If it did that (resume the "sig" thread)
+however, at that point, the signaled thread would be stopped,
+suspended with SuspendThread by GDB (while the user is inspecting it),
+but, unlike in all-stop, the "sig" thread would be set running free.
+The "sig" thread would reach the code that wants to redirect the
+signaled thread's execution to the signal handler (by hacking the
+registers context, as described above), but unlike in the all-stop
+case, the "sig" thread would notice that the signaled thread is
+suspended, and so would decide to defer the signal handler until a
+later time.  It's the same code as described above for the all-stop
+case, except it would take the "then" branch:
+
+   https://sourceware.org/cgit/newlib-cygwin/tree/winsup/cygwin/exceptions.cc?id=4becae7bd833e183c789821a477f25898ed0db1f#n1019
+
+   // Just set pending if thread is already suspended
+   if (res)
+     {
+       tls->unlock ();
+       ResumeThread (hth);
+       goto out;
+     }
+
+The result would be that when the GDB user later finally decides to
+step the signaled thread, the signaled thread would just single step
+the mainline code, instead of stepping into the signal handler.
+
+To avoid this difference of behavior in non-stop mode compared to
+all-stop mode, we use a trick -- whenever we see that magic
+OUTPUT_DEBUG_STRING_EVENT event reported for the "sig" thread, we
+report a stop for the target signaled thread, _and_ leave the "sig"
+thread suspended as well, for as long as the target signaled thread is
+suspended.  I.e., we don't let the "sig" thread run before the user
+decides what to do with the signaled thread's signal.  Only when the
+user re-resumes the signaled thread, will we resume the "sig" thread
+as well.  The trick is that all this is done here in the Windows
+backend, while providing the illusion to the core of GDB (and the
+user) that the "sig" thread is "running", for as long as the core
+wants the "sig" thread to be running.
+
+This isn't ideal, since this means that with user-visible non-stop,
+the inferior will only be able to process and report one signal at a
+time (as the "sig" thread is responsible for that), but that seems
+like an acceptible compromise, better than not being able to have the
+target work in non-stop by default on Cygwin.  */
