Summary:
Allow to run the test suite when building LLDB Standalone with Xcode against a provided LLVM build-tree that used a single-configuration generator like Ninja.
So far both test drivers, lit-based `check-lldb` as well as `lldb-dotest`, were looking for test dependencies (clang/dsymutil/etc.) in a subdirectory with the configuration name (Debug/Release/etc.). It was implicitly assuming that both, LLDB and the provided LLVM used the same generator. In practice, however, the opposite is quite common: build the dependencies with Ninja and LLDB with Xcode for development*. With this patch it becomes the default.
(* In fact, it turned out that the Xcode<->Xcode variant didn't even build out of the box. It's fixed since D62879)
Once this is sound, I'm planning the following steps:
* add stage to the [lldb-cmake-standalone bot](http://green.lab.llvm.org/green/view/LLDB/job/lldb-cmake-standalone/) to build and test it
* update `Building LLDB with Xcode` section in the docs
* bring the same mechanism to swift-lldb
* fade out the manually maintained Xcode project
On macOS build and test like this:
```
$ git clone https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project.git /path/to/llvm-project
$ cd /path/to/lldb-dev-deps
$ cmake -GNinja -C/path/to/llvm-project/lldb/cmake/caches/Apple-lldb-macOS.cmake -DLLVM_ENABLE_PROJECTS="clang;libcxx;libcxxabi" /path/to/llvm-project/llvm
$ ninja
$ cd /path/to/lldb-dev-xcode
$ cmake -GXcode -C/path/to/llvm-project/lldb/cmake/caches/Apple-lldb-macOS.cmake -DLLDB_BUILD_FRAMEWORK=Off -DLLVM_DIR=/path/to/lldb-dev-deps/lib/cmake/llvm -DClang_DIR=/path/to/lldb-dev-deps/lib/cmake/clang /path/to/llvm-project/lldb
$ xcodebuild -configuration Debug -target check-lldb
$ xcodebuild -configuration Debug -target lldb-dotest
$ ./Debug/bin/lldb-dotest
```

In order to debug a failing python test, you need to debug Python
instead of the wrapper. For a while I've been adding and removing this,
but I think it could be useful for everyone.

Without that, dotest.py would be executed with the default python
interpreter, which may not be the same one that lldb is built with.
This still requires the user do know which python interpreter to use
when running lldb-dotest, but now he is at least able to choose it, if
he knows which one to use.

This patch restructures part of LLDB's testing configuration:
1. I moved the test dependencies up the chain so every dotest dependency
becomes a lit dependency as well. It wouldn't make sense for dotest to
have other dependencies when it's being run by lit. Lit on the other
hand can still specify extra dependencies.
2. I replaced as much generator expressions with variables as possible.
This is consistent with the rest of LLVM and doesn't break generators
that support multiple targets (MSVC, Xcode). This wasn't a problem
before, but now we need to expand the dotest arguments in the lit
configuration and there's only one test suite even with multiple
targets.
3. I moved lldb-dotest into it's own directory under utils since there's
no need anymore for it to located under `test/`.
