LLDB tests assume that tests are in the test tree (the `LLDB_TEST_SRC` env variable, configured by `dotest.py`).
If this assertion doesn't hold, tests fail in strange ways. An early place this goes wrong is in `compute_mydir` which does a simple length-based substring to get the relative path. Later, we use that path to chdir to. If the test file and test tree don't agree in realpath-ness (and therefore length), this will be a cryptic error of chdir-ing to a directory that does not exist.
The actual discrepency is that the places we look for `use_lldb_suite.py` don't use a realpath, but `dotest.py` does (see initialization of `configuration.testdirs`).
It doesn't particularly matter whether we use realpath or abspath to canonicalize things, but many places end up with implicit dependencies on the canonicalized pwd being a realpath, so make them realpath consistently. Also, in the `compute_mydir` method mentioned, raise an error if the path types don't agree.

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.

LLDB has three major testing strategies: unit tests, tests that exercise
the SB API though dotest.py and what we currently call lit tests. The
later is rather confusing as we're now using lit as the driver for all
three types of tests. As most of this grew organically, the directory
structure in the LLDB repository doesn't really make this clear.
The 'lit' tests are part of the root and among these tests there's a
Unit and Suite folder for the unit and dotest-tests. This layout makes
it impossible to run just the lit tests.
This patch changes the directory layout to match the 3 testing
strategies, each with their own directory and their own configuration
file. This means there are now 3 directories under lit with 3
corresponding targets:
- API (check-lldb-api): Test exercising the SB API.
- Shell (check-lldb-shell): Test exercising command line utilities.
- Unit (check-lldb-unit): Unit tests.
Finally, there's still the `check-lldb` target that runs all three test
suites.
Finally, this also renames the lit folder to `test` to match the LLVM
repository layout.
