Major fixed to allow reading files that are over 4GB. The main problems were that the DataExtractor was using 32 bit offsets as a data cursor, and since we mmap all of our object files we could run into cases where if we had a very large core file that was over 4GB, we were running into the 4GB boundary.
So I defined a new "lldb::offset_t" which should be used for all file offsets.
After making this change, I enabled warnings for data loss and for enexpected implicit conversions temporarily and found a ton of things that I fixed.
Any functions that take an index internally, should use "size_t" for any indexes and also should return "size_t" for any sizes of collections.

fixed a few potential NULL-pointer derefs in ValueObject
we have a way to provide docstrings for properties we add to the SWIG layer - a few of these properties have a docstring already, more will come in future commits
added a new bunch of properties to SBData to make it more natural and Python-like to access the data they contain
llvm-svn: 151962
contents starting at an offset (2 separate methods). This helps
the scripting interface stay more natural by allowing both from
Python.
Added the ability to dump data with address annotations when
call SBData::GetDescription().
Hooked up the SBSection to the __repr__ so you can print section
objects from within python.
Improved the dumping of symbols from python.
Fixed the .i interface references which were set to "Relative to this Group"
which somehow included Jim's "lldb-clean" root directory in the path. The
interfaces are now in a folder called "interfaces" withing the Xcode API
subfolder.

- introduced two new classes ValueObjectConstResultChild and ValueObjectConstResultImpl: the first one is a ValueObjectChild obtained from
a ValueObjectConstResult, the second is a common implementation backend for VOCR and VOCRCh of method calls meant to read through pointers stored
in frozen objects ; now such reads transparently move from host to target as required
- as a consequence of the above, removed code that made target-memory copies of expression results in several places throughout LLDB, and also
removed code that enabled to recognize an expression result VO as such
- introduced a new GetPointeeData() method in ValueObject that lets you read a given amount of objects of type T from a VO
representing a T* or T[], and doing dereferences transparently
in private layer it returns a DataExtractor ; in public layer it returns an instance of a newly created lldb::SBData
- as GetPointeeData() does the right thing for both frozen and non-frozen ValueObject's, reimplemented ReadPointedString() to use it
en lieu of doing the raw read itself
- introduced a new GetData() method in ValueObject that lets you get a copy of the data that backs the ValueObject (for pointers,
this returns the address without any previous dereferencing steps ; for arrays it actually reads the whole chunk of memory)
in public layer this returns an SBData, just like GetPointeeData()
- introduced a new CreateValueFromData() method in SBValue that lets you create a new SBValue from a chunk of data wrapped in an SBData
the limitation to remember for this kind of SBValue is that they have no address: extracting the address-of for these objects (with any
of GetAddress(), GetLoadAddress() and AddressOf()) will return invalid values
- added several tests to check that "p"-ing objects (STL classes, char* and char[]) will do the right thing
Solved a bug where global pointers to global variables were not dereferenced correctly for display
New target setting "max-string-summary-length" gives the maximum number of characters to show in a string when summarizing it, instead of the hardcoded 128
Solved a bug where the summary for char[] and char* would not be shown if the ValueObject's were dumped via the "p" command
Removed m_pointers_point_to_load_addrs from ValueObject. Introduced a new m_address_type_of_children, which each ValueObject can set to tell the address type
of any pointers and/or references it creates. In the current codebase, this is load address most of the time (the only notable exception being file
addresses that generate file address children UNLESS we have a live process)
Updated help text for summary-string
Fixed an issue in STL formatters where std::stlcontainer::iterator would match the container's synthetic children providers
Edited the syntax and help for some commands to have proper argument types
