     zeroed debug registers.

     GDB core assumes the child inherits the watchpoints/hw
     breakpoints of the parent, and will remove them all from the
     forked off process.  Copy the debug registers mirrors into the
     new process so that all breakpoints and watchpoints can be
     removed together.  The debug registers mirror will become zeroed
     in the end before detaching the forked off process, thus making
