This patch adds a HowTo document to lldb docs which gives instruction for
setting up a virtual environment based on QEMU emulator for LLDB testing.
Instruction in this document are tested on Arm and AArch64 targets but
can easily be duplicated for other targets supported by QEMU.
This helps test LLDB in absence for modern AArch64 features not released
in publicly available hardware till date.

Several scripts (two copies of use_lldb_suite.py, and an __init__.py) look for use_lldb_suite_root.py by checking parent directories. If for some reason it doesn't exist, it keeps checking parent directories until it finds it.
However, this only breaks when the parent directory is None, but at least on Linux, dirname('/') == '/', so this will never be None.
This changes the lookup to stop if the dirname(lldb_root) is unchanged. This was previously fixed in 67f6d842fa, but only in one copy of this script.
Additionally, this makes the failure mode more visible -- if the root is not found, it complains loudly instead of silently failing, and having later modules that need lldb_root fail.

Add two modes to the reproducer replay script that make debugging a
little easier. Verbose mode prints stdout and stderr, regardless of
whether replay was successful. When --failure-only is passed, output is
limited to tests that failed to replay.
All the code required to generate the language bindings for Python and
Lua lives under scripts, even though the majority of this code aren't
scripts at all, and surrounded by scripts that are totally unrelated.
I've reorganized these files and moved everything related to the
language bindings into a new top-level directory named bindings. This
makes the corresponding files self contained and much more discoverable.

Making the string conversion operator a macro unintentionally dropped
the backslash before '\n' and '\r' and was therefore incorrectly
stripping 'n' and 'r' from the object description.
The current SWIG extensions for the string conversion operator is Python
specific because it uses the PythonObjects. This means that the code
cannot be reused for other SWIG supported languages such as Lua.
This reimplements the extensions in a more generic way that can be
reused. It uses a SWIG macro to reduce code duplication.

As correctly pointed out by Martin on the mailing list, Python should
only be auto-enabled if SWIG is found as well. This moves the logic of
finding SWIG into FindPythonInterpAndLibs to make that possible.
To make diagnosing easier I've included a status message to convey why
Python support is disabled.
This was returning a pointer to a stack-allocated memory location. This
works for Python where we return a PythonString which must own the
underlying string.
Extend the SBTarget class with a string conversion operator and reuse
the same code between Python and Lua. This should happen for all the SB
classes, but I'm doing just this one as an example and for use in a test
case.

This is a half-implemented feature that as far as we can tell was

Summary:
This patch updates the last user of ArgInfo::count and deletes
it. I also delete `GetNumInitArguments()` and `GetInitArgInfo()`.
Classess are callables and `GetArgInfo()` should work on them.
On python 3 it already works, of course. `inspect` is good.
On python 2 we have to add yet another special case. But hey if
python 2 wasn't crufty we wouln't need python 3.
I also delete `is_bound_method` becuase it is unused.
This path is tested in `TestStepScripted.py`

ArgInfo::max_positional_args. Soon ArgInfo::count will be no more.
It looks like this functionality is already well tested by

Move breakpoints from the old, bad ArgInfo::count to the new, better
ArgInfo::max_positional_args. Soon ArgInfo::count will be no more.
This functionality is tested in `TestFormatters.py`, `TestDataFormatterSynthVal.py`,

You may notice that the old code was passing 0 arguments when count was 1, and passing
1 argument when count is 2.
This is no longer necessary because max_positional_args counts the self pointer
correctly.

For example, it is pretty easy to write a breakpoint command that implements "stop when my caller is Foo", and
it is pretty easy to write a breakpoint command that implements "stop when my caller is Bar". But there's no
way to write a generic "stop when my caller is..." function, and then specify the caller when you add the
command to a breakpoint.
With this patch, you can pass this data in a SBStructuredData dictionary. That will get stored in
the PythonCommandBaton for the breakpoint, and passed to the implementation function (if it has the right
signature) when the breakpoint is hit. Then in lldb, you can say:
(lldb) break com add -F caller_is -k caller_name -v Foo
More generally this will allow us to write reusable Python breakpoint commands.

With this patch, only the no-argument form of `Reset()` remains in
PythonDataObjects. It also deletes PythonExceptionState in favor of
PythonException, because the only call-site of PythonExceptionState was
also using Reset, so I cleaned up both while I was there.

Summary:
When users define a debugger command from python, they provide a callable
object. Because the signature of the function has been extended, LLDB
needs to inspect the number of parameters the callable can take.
The rule it was using to decide was weird, apparently not tested, and
giving wrong results for some kinds of python callables.
This patch replaces the weird rule with a simple one: if the callable can
take 5 arguments, it gets the 5 argument version of the signature.
Otherwise it gets the old 4 argument version.
It also adds tests with a bunch of different kinds of python callables
with both 4 and 5 arguments.

Summary:
This is another attempt of D67993.
This change removed hard coded relative paths. This way we can generate correct result when get_python_lib() returns a different path, or LLDB_PYTHON_RELATIVE_PATH is specified directly.
By moving things out of python, we are also able to correctly process more cross compile situations. E.g. .pyd vs .so for Windows.

them with new tests.
This patch just imports all my tests. A bunch of them don't
work yet, so they are marked to be skipped. They'll be
unmarked as I fix them.
One of these tests will actually trip an assert in the SWIG
code now instead of just failing, so I'm fixing that here too.

This reverts commit 958091c209.
This commit incorrectly sets the _lldb.so symlink (at least it does when
building in Stefans' two build directory mode, where you build llvm with
cmake/ninja and lldb with cmake/Xcode, using a cmake generated project.
The _lldb.so link is SUPPOSED to point to:
bin/LLDB.framework/Versions/A/LLDB
but instead it points to
bin/LLDB
which is where LLDB was staged to before constructing the framework. This
causes all sorts of problems when we then build the lldb driver into bin -
remember that MacOS is a case-preserving but case insensitive filesystem -
so when we later go to dlopen _lldb.so, we dlopen the main executable instead.

Summary:
This patch adds SWIG typemaps that can convert arbitrary python

A SBFile may be initialized from a python file using the
constructor. There are also alternate, tagged constructors
that allow python files to be borrowed, and for the caller
to control whether or not the python I/O methods will be
called even when a file descriptor is available.I
