Delete program spaces directly when removing inferiors

When deleting an inferior, delete the associated program space as well
if it becomes unused. This replaces the "pruning" approach, with which
you could forget to call prune_program_spaces (as seen, with the
-remove-inferior command, see [1]).

This allows to remove the prune_program_spaces function. At the same
time, I was able to clean up the delete_inferior* family:

 - delete_inferior is unused
 - delete_inferior_silent is only used in monitor_close, but is replaced
   with discard_all_inferiors [2], so it becomes unused
 - All remaining calls to delete_inferior_1 are with silent=1, so the
   parameter is removed
 - delete_inferior_1 is renamed to delete_inferior

I renamed pspace_empty_p to program_space_empty_p. I prefer if the
"exported" functions have a more explicit and standard name.

Tested on Ubuntu 14.10.
