Simplify PTRACE_foo constants and PTRACE_SETOPTIONS code
    
Exchange PT_TRACESYSGOOD and PT_PTRACE_CAP bit positions, which makes
PT_option bits contiguous and therefore makes code in ptrace_setoptions()
much simpler.
    
Every PTRACE_O_TRACEevent is defined to (1 << PTRACE_EVENT_event)
instead of using explicit numeric constants, to ensure we don't
mess up relationship between bit positions and event ids.
    
PT_EVENT_FLAG_SHIFT was not particularly useful, PT_OPT_FLAG_SHIFT with
value of PT_EVENT_FLAG_SHIFT-1 is easier to use.
    
PT_TRACE_MASK constant is nuked, the only its use is replaced by
(PTRACE_O_MASK << PT_OPT_FLAG_SHIFT).
    
Clearly buggy behavior of PTRACE_SETOPTIONS with unknown bits in flags
is preseved. The comment about bug is added.
