This checkin adds the capability for LLDB to load plugins from external dylibs that can provide new commands
It exports an SBCommand class from the public API layer, and a new SBCommandPluginInterface
There is a minimal load-only plugin manager built into the debugger, which can be accessed via Debugger::LoadPlugin.
Plugins are loaded from two locations at debugger startup (LLDB.framework/Resources/PlugIns and ~/Library/Application Support/LLDB/PlugIns) and more can be (re)loaded via the "plugin load" command
For an example of how to make a plugin, refer to the fooplugin.cpp file in examples/plugins/commands
Caveats:
Currently, the new API objects and features are not exposed via Python.
The new commands can only be "parsed" (i.e. not raw) and get their command line via a char** parameter (we do not expose our internal Args object)
There is no unloading feature, which can potentially lead to leaks if you overwrite the commands by reloading the same or different plugins
There is no API exposed for option parsing, which means you may need to use getopt or roll-your-own

which builds a Debug+Asserts build of Clang and
links LLDB against it. The Debug configuration
builds Clang with Release+Asserts, for faster
linking and smaller memory footprint when debugging
the build LLDB.

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.

- no setting auto completion
- very manual and error prone way of getting/setting variables
- tons of code duplication
- useless instance names for processes, threads
Now settings can easily be defined like option values. The new settings makes use of the "OptionValue" classes so we can re-use the option value code that we use to set settings in command options. No more instances, just "does the right thing".

Record the snapshot of our watched value when the watchpoint is set or hit.
And report the old/new values when watchpoint is triggered. Add some test scenarios.

libc++. We also no longer use the GNU extensions
to C++ and C (we didn't use them anyway).
This also means that the LLVM we use must be
built with the new libc++.
I will commit llvm.zip next.

Use the built in demangler for Apple builds for now which has needed demangling fixes, and make the cxa_demangle.cpp use rtti in the Xcode project settings as it requires it be enabled.

Fixed a case where the install header phase in the Xcode project would not set the LLDB_VERSION #define correctly. It has now been fixed to key off of the CURRENT_PROJECT_VERSION which will get auto updated with "agvtool bump -all". This was done by adding a build setting to the install-headers makefile based target.

Fixed the DisassemblerLLVMC disassembler to parse more efficiently instead of parsing opcodes over and over. The InstructionLLVMC class now only reads the opcode in the InstructionLLVMC::Decode function. This can be done very efficiently for ARM and architectures that have fixed opcode sizes. For x64 it still calls the disassembler to get the byte size.
Moved the lldb_private::Instruction::Dump(...) function up into the lldb_private::Instruction class and it now uses the function that gets the mnemonic, operandes and comments so that all disassembly is using the same code.
Added StreamString::FillLastLineToColumn() to allow filling a line up to a column with a character (which is used by the lldb_private::Instruction::Dump(...) function).
Modified the Opcode::GetData() fucntion to "do the right thing" for thumb instructions.

Switch over to the "*-apple-macosx" for desktop and "*-apple-ios" for iOS triples.
Also make the selection process for auto selecting platforms based off of an arch much better.

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.

Fixed an issue that would happen when using debug map with DWARF in the .o files where we wouldn't ever track down the actual definition for a type when things were in namespaces. We now serialize the decl context information into an intermediate format which allows us to track down the correct definition for a type regardless of which DWARF symbol file it comes from. We do this by creating a "DWARFDeclContext" object that contains the DW_TAG + name for each item in a decl context which we can then use to veto potential accelerator table matches. For example, the accelerator tables store the basename of the type, so if you have "std::vector<int>", we would end up with an accelerator table entry for the type that contained "vector<int>", which we would then search for using a DWARFDeclContext object that contained:
[0] DW_TAG_class_type "vector<int>"
[1] DW_TAG_namespace "std"
This is currently used to track down forward declarations for things like "class a:🅱️:Foo;".
