If you want to define a formatter for "array of Foo of any size", ordinarily you would say
-x "Foo \[[0-9]+\]"
this checkin allows you to instead say "Foo[]" (or "Foo []") and LLDB will automatically create the regular expression and add the -x flag on your behalf

Accept mach-o files with bad segments. Many core files are not created correctly and we should still be able to glean any information we can from them.

Fixing an issue where formats would not propagate from parents to children in all cases
Details follow:
an SBValue has children and those are fetched along with their values
Now, one calls SBValue::SetFormat() on the parent
Technically, the format choices should propagate onto the children (see ValueObject::GetFormat())
But if the children values are already fetched, they won't notice the format change and won't update themselves
This commit fixes that by making ValueObject::GetValueAsCString() check if any format change intervened from the previous call to the current one
A test case is also added

command script import now does reloads - for real
If you invoke command script import foo and it detects that foo has already been imported, it will
- invoke reload(foo) to reload the module in Python
- re-invoke foo.__lldb_init_module
This second step is necessary to ensure that LLDB does not keep cached copies of any formatter, command, ... that the module is providing
Usual caveats with Python imports persist. Among these:
- if you have objects lurking around, reloading the module won't magically update them to reflect changes
- if module A imports module B, reloading A won't reload B
These are Python-specific issues independent of LLDB that would require more extensive design work
The --allow-reload (-r) option is maintained for compatibility with existing scripts, but is clearly documented as redundant - reloading is always enabled whether you use it or not

Cleaned up the thread updating code in the OperatingSystemPython class. It doesn't need to clear the "new_thread_list" anymore as it is always empty.
It also now assigns the "core_thread_list" to "new_thread_list" if no threads are detected through python.

Giving a timeout for the call to NSPrintForDebugger() that happens when you “po” objects
This is a temporary workaround until a more detailed solution to the general problem of canceling actions is found

Fixed performance issues that arose after changing SBTarget, SBProcess, SBThread and SBFrame over to using a std::shared_ptr to a ExecutionContextRef. The ExecutionContextRef doesn't store a std::weak_ptr to a stack frame because stack frames often get replaced with new version, so it held onto a StackID object that would allow us to ask the thread each time for the frame for the StackID. The linear function was too slow for large recursive stacks. We also fixed an issue where anytime the std::shared_ptr<ExecutionContextRef> in any SBTarget, SBProcess, SBThread objects was turned into an ExecutionContext object, it would try to resolve all items in the ExecutionContext which are shared pointers. Even if the StackID in the ExecutionContextRef was invalid, it was looking through all frames in every thread. This causes a lot of unnecessary frame accesses.

Which means "platform process list" should work and list the architecture.
We are now parsing the elf build-id if it exists, which should allow us to load stripped symbols (looking at that next).

Added logging for the OS plug-in python objects in OperatingSystemPython so we can see the python dictionary returned from the plug-in when logging is enabled.

live as long as they needed to. This led to
equality tests involving persistent variables
often failing or succeeding when they had no
business doing so.
To do this, I introduced the ability for a
memory allocation to "leak" - that is, to
persist in the process beyond the lifetime of
the expression. Hand-declared persistent
variables do this now.

Fixed ProcessMachCore to be able to locate the main executeable in the core file even if it doesn't start at a core file address range boundary. Prior to this we only checked the first bytes of each range in the core file for mach_kernel or dyld. Now we still do this, but if we don't find the mach_kernel or dyld anywhere, we go through all core file ranges and check every 0x1000 to see if we can find dyld or the mach_kernel.
Now that we can properly detect the mach_kernel at any address, we don't need to call "DynamicLoaderDarwinKernel::SearchForDarwinKernel(Process*)" anymore.

Another fix to make sure that if we aren't able to extract an object file for any reason, we don't crash when trying to parse the debug map info.
