Add support for breaking into debugger for Linux

Use Linux-specific /proc/$PID/status file to check whether we're being
debugged and a generic raise(SIGTRAP) to actually break into the debugger.

// The standard POSIX way of detecting a debugger is to attempt to
// ptrace() the process, but this needs to be done from a child and not
// this process itself to still allow attaching to this process later

// "debugger" (which doesn't need to be gdb, of course, it could also
// be strace, for example) in /proc/$PID/status, so just get it from
// there instead.
