[PATCH 0/2] Star wildcard ranges (e.g., "info thread 2.*")

In v2:
- Address Eli's documentation review.
- Fix "thread apply" crash in patch #1.
- remove 'state->string = "-"' hack in patch #2.

This series adds support for specifying "all threads of inferior N",
by writing "*" as thread number/range in thread ID lists.

E.g., "info threads 2.*" or "thread apply 2.* bt".

While doing this, I noticed a few bugs in "thread apply" (that even
predate the per-inferior thread IDs series). Patch 1 fixes them. I'm
only keeping both patches together to make it clear that patch 2
applies on top of patch 1.

Pedro Alves (2):
Fix "thread apply $conv_var" and misc other related problems
Star wildcard ranges (e.g., "info thread 2.*")
