ptrace_stop: fix racy nonstop_code setting
If the tracer is gone and we are not going to stop, ptrace_stop() sets ->exit_code = nostop_code. However, the tracer could actually clear the exit code before detaching. In that case get_signal_to_deliver() "resends" the signal which was cancelled by the debugger. For example, it is possible that a quick PTRACE_ATTACH + PTRACE_DETACH can leave the tracee in STOPPED state. Change the behaviour of ptrace_stop(). If the caller is ptrace notify(), we should always clear ->exit_code. If the caller is get_signal_to_deliver(), we should not touch it at all. To do so, change the nonstop_code parameter to "bool clear_code" and change the callers accordingly.
