I don't understand how it was ever possible to change the registers on a
thread that's not the current active one when a halt happened. Really
instead of the RTOS tracking what the currently selected thread is, it
would make more sense to have gdb_server do that and simply pass it
along in every call to the RTOS layer.
Now MulticoreRegTest passes.

This patch adds "hwthread", a pseudo rtos that represents cpu cores
in an SMP system as threads to gdb. This allows to debug SMP
system kernels in a more sensible manner and removes the current
atrocities of switching gdb manually between CPU cores to update
the context.
