wait: WSTOPPED|WCONTINUED hangs if a zombie child is traced by real_parent

"A zombie is only visible to its ptracer" logic in wait_consider_task()
is very wrong. Trivial test-case:

	#include <unistd.h>
	#include <sys/ptrace.h>
	#include <sys/wait.h>
	#include <assert.h>

	int main(void)
	{
		int child = fork();

		if (!child) {
			assert(ptrace(PTRACE_TRACEME, 0,0,0) == 0);
			return 0x23;
		}

		assert(waitid(P_ALL, child, NULL, WEXITED | WNOWAIT) == 0);
		assert(waitid(P_ALL, 0, NULL, WSTOPPED) == -1);
		return 0;
	}

it hangs in waitpid(WSTOPPED) despite the fact it has a single zombie
child.  This is because wait_consider_task(ptrace => 0) sees p->ptrace and
cleares ->notask_error assuming that the debugger should detach and notify
us.

Change wait_consider_task(ptrace => 0) to pretend that ptrace == T if the
child is traced by us.  This really simplifies the logic and allows us to
do more fixes, see the next changes.  This also hides the unwanted group
stop state automatically, we can remove another ptrace_reparented() check.

Unfortunately, this adds the following behavioural changes:

	1. Before this patch wait(WEXITED | __WNOTHREAD) does not reap
	   a natural child if it is traced by the caller's sub-thread.

	   Hopefully nobody will ever notice this change, and I think
	   that nobody should rely on this behaviour anyway.

	2. SIGNAL_STOP_CONTINUED is no longer hidden from debugger if
	   it is real parent.

	   While this change comes as a side effect, I think it is good
	   by itself. The group continued state can not be consumed by
	   another process in this case, it doesn't depend on ptrace,
	   it doesn't make sense to hide it from real parent.

	   Perhaps we should add the thread_group_leader() check before
	   wait_task_continued()? May be, but this shouldn't depend on
	   ptrace_reparented().
