This diff introduces a new symbol on-demand which skips
loading a module's debug info unless explicitly asked on
demand. This provides significant performance improvement
for application with dynamic linking mode which has large
number of modules.
The feature can be turned on with:
"settings set symbols.load-on-demand true"
The feature works by creating a new SymbolFileOnDemand class for
each module which wraps the actual SymbolFIle subclass as member
variable. By default, most virtual methods on SymbolFileOnDemand are
skipped so that it looks like there is no debug info for that module.
But once the module's debug info is explicitly requested to
be enabled (in the conditions mentioned below) SymbolFileOnDemand
will allow all methods to pass through and forward to the actual SymbolFile
which would hydrate module's debug info on-demand.
In an internal benchmark, we are seeing more than 95% improvement
for a 3000 modules application.
Currently we are providing several ways to on demand hydrate
a module's debug info:
* Source line breakpoint: matching in supported files
* Stack trace: resolving symbol context for an address
* Symbolic breakpoint: symbol table match guided promotion
* Global variable: symbol table match guided promotion
In all above situations the module's debug info will be on-demand
parsed and indexed.
Some follow-ups for this feature:
* Add a command that allows users to load debug info explicitly while using a
new or existing command when this feature is enabled
* Add settings for "never load any of these executables in Symbols On Demand"
that takes a list of globs
* Add settings for "always load the the debug info for executables in Symbols
On Demand" that takes a list of globs
* Add a new column in "image list" that shows up by default when Symbols On
Demand is enable to show the status for each shlib like "not enabled for
this", "debug info off" and "debug info on" (with a single character to
short string, not the ones I just typed)

A trace might contain events traced during the target's execution. For
example, a thread might be paused for some period of time due to context
switches or breakpoints, which actually force a context switch. Not only
that, a trace might be paused because the CPU decides to trace only a
specific part of the target, like the address filtering provided by
intel pt, which will cause pause events. Besides this case, other kinds
of events might exist.
This patch adds the method `TraceCursor::GetEvents()`` that returns the
list of events that happened right before the instruction being pointed
at by the cursor. Some refactors were done to make this change simpler.
Besides this new API, the instruction dumper now supports the -e flag
which shows pause events, like in the following example, where pauses
happened due to breakpoints.
```

In a couple of places I have changed the index-based element accesses to

This adjusts the path iteration - `paths` is a null-terminated sequence

The rust demangler has some odd buffer handling code, which will copy
the demangled string into the provided buffer, if it will fit.
Otherwise it uses the allocated buffer it made. But the length of the
incoming buffer will have come from a previous call, which was the
length of the demangled string -- not the buffer size. And of course,
we're unconditionally allocating a temporary buffer in the first
place. So we don't actually get buffer reuse, and we get a memcpy in
somecases.
However, nothing in LLVM ever passes in a non-null pointer. Neither
does anything pass in a status pointer that is then made use of. The
only exercise these have is in the test suite.
So let's just make the rust demangler have the same API as the dlang
demangler.

This patch moves the platform creation and selection logic into the
per-debugger platform lists. I've tried to keep functional changes to a
minimum -- the main (only) observable difference in this change is that
APIs, which select a platform by name (e.g.,
Debugger::SetCurrentPlatform) will not automatically pick up a platform
associated with another debugger (or no debugger at all).
I've also added several tests for this functionality -- one of the
pleasant consequences of the debugger isolation is that it is now
possible to test the platform selection and creation logic.

LLDB supports having globbing regexes in the process launch arguments
that will be resolved using the user's shell. This requires that we pass
the launch args to the shell and then read back the expanded arguments
using LLDB's argdumper utility.
As the shell will not just expand the globbing regexes but all special
characters, we need to escape all non-globbing charcters such as $, &,
<, >, etc. as those otherwise are interpreted and removed in the step
where we expand the globbing characters. Also because the special
characters are shell-specific, LLDB needs to maintain a list of all the
characters that need to be escaped for each specific shell.
This patch adds the missing semicolon character to the escape list for
all currently supported shells. Without this having a semicolon in the
binary path or having a semicolon in the launch arguments will cause the
argdumping process to fail. E.g., lldb -- ./calc "a;b" was failing
before but is working now.

Something ugly I did was to report the trace buffer size to the DecodedThread,
which is later used as part of the `dump info` command. Instead of doing that,
we can just directly ask the trace for the raw buffer and print its size.
I thought about not asking for the entire trace but instead just for its size,
but in this case, as our traces as not extremely big, I prefer to ask for the
entire trace, ensuring it could be fetched, and then print its size.

I'm adding two new classes that can be used to measure the duration of long
tasks as process and thread level, e.g. decoding, fetching data from
lldb-server, etc. In this first patch, I'm using it to measure the time it takes
to decode each thread, which is printed out with the `dump info` command. In a
later patch I'll start adding process-level tasks and I might move these
classes to the upper Trace level, instead of having them in the intel-pt
plugin. I might need to do that anyway in the future when we have to
measure HTR. For now, I want to keep the impact of this change minimal.
With it, I was able to generate the following info of a very big trace:
```
(lldb) thread trace dump info Trace technology: intel-pt
thread #1: tid = 616081
Total number of instructions: 9729366
Memory usage:
Raw trace size: 1024 KiB
Total approximate memory usage (excluding raw trace): 123517.34 KiB
Average memory usage per instruction (excluding raw trace): 13.00 bytes
Timing:
Decoding instructions: 1.62s
Errors:
Number of TSC decoding errors: 0
```
As seen above, it took 1.62 seconds to decode 9.7M instructions. This is great
news, as we don't need to do any optimization work in this area.

Clang is adding a feature to ObjC code generation, where instead of calling
objc_msgSend directly with an object & selector, it generates a stub that
gets passed only the object and the stub figures out the selector.
This patch adds support for following that dispatch method into the implementation
function.
Some parts of the code have to distinguish between live and postmortem threads
to figure out how to get some data, e.g. thread trace buffers. This makes the
code less generic and more error prone. An example of that is that we have
two different decoders: LiveThreadDecoder and PostMortemThreadDecoder. They
exist because getting the trace bufer is different for each case.
The problem doesn't stop there. Soon we'll have even more kinds of data, like
the context switch trace, whose fetching will be different for live and post-
mortem processes.
As a way to fix this, I'm creating a common API for accessing thread data,
which is able to figure out how to handle the postmortem and live cases on
behalf of the caller. As a result of that, I was able to eliminate the two
decoders and unify them into a simpler one. Not only that, our TraceSave
functionality only worked for live threads, but now it can also work for
postmortem processes, which might be useful now, but it might in the future.
This common API is OnThreadBinaryDataRead. More information in the inline
documentation.

If the variables view shows a variable that is a struct that has

weird that a tree item cannot be expanded even though it "should".
I guess the MightHaveChildren() checking means that GetChildren() may
