Ptrace updates: event tracing for vfork finish and process exit [4/5]

This patch adds two new event hooks to ptrace:

  PTRACE_EVENT_EXIT, which triggers in do_exit().  This is useful to quickly
  find out where a program is making an exit syscall from, etc. - it
  triggers before the mm is released, so we can still get backtraces et
  cetera.

  PTRACE_EVENT_VFORK_DONE triggers in do_fork() after the vfork completion,
  i.e. when the child is done with the mm.  This is a safe way to figure out
  when we can re-insert breakpoints in the parent without the child hitting
  them.  It's the only safe way, in fact.

# --------------------------------------------

# Add PTRACE_O_TRACEVFORKDONE and PTRACE_O_TRACEEXIT facilities.
