Added a way to set hardware breakpoints from the "breakpoint set" command with the new "--hardware" option. Hardware breakpoints are not a request, they currently are a requirement. So when breakpoints are specified as hardware breakpoints, they might fail to be set when they are able to be resolved and should be used sparingly. This is currently hooked up for GDB remote debugging.
Linux and FreeBSD should quickly enable this feature if possible, or return an error for any breakpoints that are hardware breakpoint sites in the "virtual Error Process::EnableBreakpointSite (BreakpointSite *bp_site);" function.

that /bin/sh re-exec's itself to /bin/bash, so it needs one more resume when you
are using it as the shell than /bin/bash did or you will stop at the start of your
program, rather than running it.
So I added a Platform API to get the number of resumes needed when launching with
a particular shell, and set the right values for Mac OS X.

- this fix ensures the ThreadList mutex is always locked before the StackFrameList mutex
Situation where deadlock could occur (without this fix):
Thread 1 is in Process::WillResume and locks the ThreadList mutex (on entry), and subsequently calls StackFrameList::Clear() which locks the StackFrameList mutex.
Meanwhile, thread 2 is in Process::RunThreadPlan and calls Thread::SetSelectedFrame() (which locks the StackFrameList mutex) before calling GetSelectedThread (which attempts to lock the ThreadList mutex)
In my testing on both Linux and Mac OS X, I was unable to reproduce any hangs with this patch applied.

LLDB requires that the inferior process be stopped before, and remain
stopped during, certain accesses to process state.
Previously this was achieved with a POSIX rwlock which had a write lock
taken for the duration that the process was running, and released when
the process was stopped. Any access to process state was performed with
a read lock held.
However, POSIX requires that pthread_rwlock_unlock() be called from the
same thread as pthread_rwlock_wrlock(), and lldb needs to stop and start
the process from different threads. Violating this constraint is
technically undefined behaviour, although as it happens Linux and Darwin
result in the unlock proceeding in this case. FreeBSD follows POSIX
more strictly, and the unlock would fail, resulting in a hang later upon
the next attempt to take the lock.
All read lock consumers use ReadTryLock() and handle failure to obtain
the lock (typically by logging an error "process is running"). Thus,
instead of using the lock state itself to track the running state, this
change adds an explicit m_running flag. ReadTryLock tests the flag, and
if the process is not running it returns with the read lock held.
WriteLock and WriteTryLock are renamed to SetRunning and TrySetRunning,
and (if successful) they set m_running with the lock held. This way,
read consumers can determine if the process is running and act
appropriately, and write consumers are still held off from starting the
process if read consumers are active.
Note that with this change there are still some curious access patterns,
such as calling WriteUnlock / SetStopped twice in a row, and there's no
protection from multiple threads trying to simultaneously start the
process. In practice this does not seem to be a problem, and was
exposing other undefined POSIX behaviour prior to this change.

bother checking if a region is safe to use. In
cases where regions need to be synthesized rather
than properly allocated, the memory reads required
to determine whether the area is used are
- insufficient, because intermediate locations
could be in use, and
- unsafe, because on some platforms reading from
memory can trigger events.
All this only makes a difference on platforms
where memory allocation in the target is impossible.
Behavior on platforms where it is possible should
stay the same.

325,000 breakpoints for running "breakpoint set --func-regex ." on lldb itself (after hitting a breakpoint at main so that LLDB.framework is loaded) used to take up to an hour to set, now we are down under a minute. With warm file caches, we are at 40 seconds, and that is with setting 325,000 breakpoint through the GDB remote API. Linux and the native debuggers might be faster. I haven't timed what how much is debug info parsing and how much is the protocol traffic to/from GDB remote.
That there were many performance issues. Most of them were due to storing breakpoints in the wrong data structures, or using the wrong iterators to traverse the lists, traversing the lists in inefficient ways, and not optimizing certain function name lookups/symbol merges correctly.
Debugging after that is also now very efficient. There were issues with replacing the breakpoint opcodes in memory that was read, and those routines were also fixed.

process. This cache is used by the expression
parser if the underlying process doesn't support
memory allocation, to avoid needless repeated

Also fixed a silly bug in IRMemoryMap where it
would continue searching even after it found a
valid region.

Avoid a deadlock when using the OperatingSystemPython code and typing "process interrupt". There was a possible lock inversion between the target API lock and the process' thread list lock due to code trying to discard the thread list. This was fixed by adding a boolean to Process::Halt() that indicates if the thread plans should be discarded and doing it in the private state thread when we process the stopped state.

Main changes in this patch include:
- cleanup plug-in interface and use ConstStrings for plug-in names
- Modfiied the BSD Archive plug-in to be able to pick out the correct .o file when .a files contain multiple .o files with the same name by using the timestamp
- Modified SymbolFileDWARFDebugMap to properly verify the timestamp on .o files it loads to ensure we don't load updated .o files and cause problems when debugging
The plug-in interface changes:
Modified the lldb_private::PluginInterface class that all plug-ins inherit from:
Changed:
virtual const char * GetPluginName() = 0;
To:
virtual ConstString GetPluginName() = 0;
Removed:
virtual const char * GetShortPluginName() = 0;
- Fixed up all plug-in to adhere to the new interface and to return lldb_private::ConstString values for the plug-in names.
- Fixed all plug-ins to return simple names with no prefixes. Some plug-ins had prefixes and most ones didn't, so now they all don't have prefixed names, just simple names like "linux", "gdb-remote", etc.

This re-submission of this patch fixes a problem where the code sometimes caused a deadlock. The Process::SetPrivateState method was locking the Process::m_private_state variable and then later calling ThreadList::DidStop, which locks the ThreadList mutex. Other methods in ThreadList which were being called from other threads lock the ThreadList mutex and then call Process::GetPrivateState which locks the Process::m_private_state mutex. To avoid deadlocks, Process::SetPrivateState now locks the ThreadList mutex before locking the Process::m_private_state mutex.

value. This fixes problems, for instance, with the StepRange plans, where they know that
they explained the stop because they were at their "run to here" breakpoint, then deleted
that breakpoint, so when they got asked again, doh! I had done this for a couple of plans
in an ad hoc fashion, this just formalizes it.
Also add a "ResumeRequested" in Process so that the code in the completion handlers can
tell the ShouldStop logic they want to resume rather than just directly resuming. That allows
us to handle resuming in a more controlled fashion.
Also, SetPublicState can take a "restarted" flag, so that it doesn't drop the run lock when
the target was immediately restarted.

This checkin aims to fix this. The process now has two thread lists: a real thread list for threads that are created by the lldb_private::Process subclass, and the user visible threads. The user visible threads are the same as the real threas when no OS plug-in in used. But when an OS plug-in is used, the user thread can be a combination of real and "memory" threads. Real threads can be placed inside of memory threads so that a thread appears to be different, but is still controlled by the actual real thread. When the thread list needs updating, the lldb_private::Process class will call the: lldb_private::Process::UpdateThreadList() function with the old real thread list, and the function is expected to fill in the new real thread list with the current state of the process. After this function, the process will check if there is an OS plug-in being used, and if so, it will give the old user thread list, the new real thread list and the OS plug-in will create the new user thread list from both of these lists. If there is no OS plug-in, the real thread list is the user thread list.
These changes keep the lldb_private::Process subclasses clean and no changes are required.

This prevents unbounded reads (i.e. reads of GetMaximumSizeOfStringSummary() bytes)
from causing test failures (i.e. due to ptrace EIO or EFAULT on Linux).
Note that ReadCStringFromMemory is marked as deprecated because the loop that calls
ReadMemory does not continue until the string has been completely read.
The expected behavior is to read until until max_bytes or a null terminator.
Note: As discussed on lldb-dev, further testing will be performed with ReadStringFromMemory
before further changes are made for users of ReadCStringFromMemory.
