Fix

The solution to bug 280631 does not work for GDB 7.0 or later.
This is because in that case, when we clear GDBProcesses_7_0.fThreadCommandCache using e.getDMContext(), this context is a Container context; on the other hand, when we use fThreadCommandCache, we use it with a ICommandControlDMContext.  Therefore, the clearing of the cache does not actually clear anything.

I am able to test this fix with gdbserver, as it does not seem to be reporting new thread creation.

I believe the solution is to clear the cache for the ICommandControlDMContext instead.  I've successfully tested this patch which implements this solution.

John, can you review?
