Make breakpoint setting by file and line much more efficient by only looking for inlined breakpoint locations if we are setting a breakpoint in anything but a source implementation file. Implementing this complex for a many reasons. Turns out that parsing compile units lazily had some issues with respect to how we need to do things with DWARF in .o files. So the fixes in the checkin for this makes these changes:
- Add a new setting called "target.inline-breakpoint-strategy" which can be set to "never", "always", or "headers". "never" will never try and set any inlined breakpoints (fastest). "always" always looks for inlined breakpoint locations (slowest, but most accurate). "headers", which is the default setting, will only look for inlined breakpoint locations if the breakpoint is set in what are consudered to be header files, which is realy defined as "not in an implementation source file".
- modify the breakpoint setting by file and line to check the current "target.inline-breakpoint-strategy" setting and act accordingly
- Modify compile units to be able to get their language and other info lazily. This allows us to create compile units from the debug map and not have to fill all of the details in, and then lazily discover this information as we go on debuggging. This is needed to avoid parsing all .o files when setting breakpoints in implementation only files (no inlines). Otherwise we would need to parse the .o file, the object file (mach-o in our case) and the symbol file (DWARF in the object file) just to see what the compile unit was.
- modify the "SymbolFileDWARFDebugMap" to subclass lldb_private::Module so that the virtual "GetObjectFile()" and "GetSymbolVendor()" functions can be intercepted when the .o file contenst are later lazilly needed. Prior to this fix, when we first instantiated the "SymbolFileDWARFDebugMap" class, we would also make modules, object files and symbol files for every .o file in the debug map because we needed to fix up the sections in the .o files with information that is in the executable debug map. Now we lazily do this in the DebugMapModule::GetObjectFile()
Cleaned up header includes a bit as well.

artificially reject stepping out of a function you stepped into when stepping through an inlined range.
Also fill in the target in the symbol context we make up for the inlined stepping range in ThreadPlanStepOut.

should be MasterPlans that want to stay on the plan stack. So make all plans NOT
MasterPlans by default and then have the SB API's and the CommandObjectThread step
commands set this explicitly.
Also added a "clean up" phase to the Thread::ShouldStop so that if plans get stranded
on the stack, we can remove them. This is done by adding an IsPlanStale method to the
thread plans, and if the plan can know that it is no longer relevant, it returns true,
and the plan and its sub-plans will get discarded.

objects for the backlink to the lldb_private::Process. The issues we were
running into before was someone was holding onto a shared pointer to a
lldb_private::Thread for too long, and the lldb_private::Process parent object
would get destroyed and the lldb_private::Thread had a "Process &m_process"
member which would just treat whatever memory that used to be a Process as a
valid Process. This was mostly happening for lldb_private::StackFrame objects
that had a member like "Thread &m_thread". So this completes the internal
strong/weak changes.
Documented the ExecutionContext and ExecutionContextRef classes so that our
LLDB developers can understand when and where to use ExecutionContext and
ExecutionContextRef objects.

as part of the thread format output.
Currently this is only done for the ThreadPlanStepOut.
Add a convenience API ABI::GetReturnValueObject.
Change the ValueObject::EvaluationPoint to BE an ExecutionContextScope, rather than
trying to hand out one of its subsidiary object's pointers. That way this will always
be good.

One (stepout.patch) to fix a problem in ThreadPlanStepOut.cpp. There is an erroneous semi colon at end of an if statement that make the condition useless (if body is empty).
And the second patch is to remove to useless typedef on enum, and so avoid a lot of warnings with clang++.

select frame #3, you can then do a step out and be able to go directly to the
frame above frame #3!
Added StepOverUntil and StepOutOfFrame to the SBThread API to allow more powerful
stepping.

don't crash if we disable logging when some code already has a copy of the
logger. Prior to this fix, logs were handed out as pointers and if they were
held onto while a log got disabled, then it could cause a crash. Now all logs
are handed out as shared pointers so this problem shouldn't happen anymore.
We are also using our new shared pointers that put the shared pointer count
and the object into the same allocation for a tad better performance.

complex inlined examples.
StackFrame classes don't have a "GetPC" anymore, they have "GetFrameCodeAddress()".
This is because inlined frames will have a PC value that is the same as the
concrete frame that owns the inlined frame, yet the code locations for the
frame can be different. We also need to be able to get the real PC value for
a given frame so that variables evaluate correctly. To get the actual PC
value for a frame you can use:
addr_t pc = frame->GetRegisterContext()->GetPC();
Some issues with the StackFrame stomping on its own symbol context were
resolved which were causing the information to change for a frame when the
stack ID was calculated. Also the StackFrame will now correctly store the
symbol context resolve flags for any extra bits of information that were
looked up (if you ask for a block only and you find one, you will alwasy have
the compile unit and function).

This will allow debugger plug-ins to make any instance of "lldb_private::StopInfo"
that can completely describe any stop reason. It also provides a framework for
doing intelligent things with the stop info at important times in the lifetime
of the inferior.
Examples include the signal stop info in StopInfoUnixSignal. It will check with
the process to see that the current action is for the signal. These actions
include wether to stop for the signal, wether the notify that the signal was
hit, and wether to pass the signal along to the inferior process. The
StopInfoUnixSignal class overrides the "ShouldStop()" method of StopInfo and
this allows the stop info to determine if it should stop at the signal or
continue the process.
StopInfo subclasses must override the following functions:
virtual lldb::StopReason
GetStopReason () const = 0;
virtual const char *
GetDescription () = 0;
StopInfo subclasses can override the following functions:
// If the subclass returns "false", the inferior will resume. The default
// version of this function returns "true" which means the default stop
// info will stop the process. The breakpoint subclass will check if
// the breakpoint wants us to stop by calling any installed callback on
// the breakpoint, and also checking if the breakpoint is for the current
// thread. Signals will check if they should stop based off of the
// UnixSignal settings in the process.
virtual bool
ShouldStop (Event *event_ptr);
// Sublasses can state if they want to notify the debugger when "ShouldStop"
// returns false. This would be handy for breakpoints where you want to
// log information and continue and is also used by the signal stop info
// to notify that a signal was received (after it checks with the process
// signal settings).
virtual bool
ShouldNotify (Event *event_ptr)
{
return false;
}
// Allow subclasses to do something intelligent right before we resume.
// The signal class will figure out if the signal should be propagated
// to the inferior process and pass that along to the debugger plug-ins.
virtual void
WillResume (lldb::StateType resume_state)
{
// By default, don't do anything
}
The support the Mach exceptions was moved into the lldb/source/Plugins/Process/Utility
folder and now doesn't polute the lldb_private::Thread class with platform
specific code.

without having to use RTTI.
Removed the ThreadPlanContinue and replaced with a ShouldAutoContinue query that serves the same purpose. Having to push
another plan to assert that if there's no other indication the target should continue when this plan is popped was flakey
and error prone. This method is more stable, and fixed problems we were having with thread specific breakpoints.
