Our code for locating the shared library directory works via dladdr (or
the windows equivalent) to locate the path of an address known to reside
in liblldb. This works great for C++ programs, but there's a catch.
When (lib)lldb is used from python (like in our test suite), this dladdr
call will return a path to the _lldb.so (or such) file in the python
directory. To compensate for this, we have code which attempts to
resolve this symlink, to ensure we get the canonical location. However,
here's the second catch.
On windows, this file is not a symlink (but a copy), so this logic
fails. Since most of our other paths are derived from the liblldb
location, all of these paths will be wrong, when running the test suite.
One effect of this was the failure to find lldb-server in D96202.
To fix this issue, I add some windows-specific code to locate the
liblldb directory. Since it cannot rely on symlinks, it works by
manually walking the directory tree -- essentially doing the opposite of
what we do when computing the python directory.
To avoid python leaking back into the host code, I implement this with
the help of a callback which can be passed to HostInfo::Initialize in
order to assist with the directory location. The callback lives inside
the python plugin.
I also strenghten the existing path test to ensure the returned path is
the right one.

LLDB has a few different styles of header guards and they're not very
consistent because things get moved around or copy/pasted. This patch
unifies the header guards across LLDB and converts everything to match
LLVM's style.

This commit implements option (3):
> Go back to initializing the reproducer before the rest of the debugger.
> The method wouldn't be instrumented and guarantee no other SB methods are
> called or SB objects are constructed. The initialization then becomes part
> of the replay.

to reflect the new license.
We understand that people may be surprised that we're moving the header
entirely to discuss the new license. We checked this carefully with the
Foundation's lawyer and we believe this is the correct approach.
Essentially, all code in the project is now made available by the LLVM
project under our new license, so you will see that the license headers
include that license only. Some of our contributors have contributed
code under our old license, and accordingly, we have retained a copy of
our old license notice in the top-level files in each project and
repository.

This patch changes the way the reproducer is initialized. Rather than
making changes at run time we now do everything at initialization time.
To make this happen we had to introduce initializer options and their SB
variant. This allows us to tell the initializer that we're running in
reproducer capture/replay mode.
Because of this change we also had to alter our testing strategy. We
cannot reinitialize LLDB when using the dotest infrastructure. Instead
we use lit and invoke two instances of the driver.
Another consequence is that we can no longer enable capture or replay
through commands. This was bound to go away form the beginning, but I
had something in mind where you could enable/disable specific providers.
However this seems like it adds very little value right now so the
corresponding commands were removed.
Finally this change also means you now have to control this through the
driver, for which I replaced --reproducer with --capture and --replay to
differentiate between the two modes.

Summary:
For lldb-server, it is sufficient to parse only the native object file
format for its target OS (no other file can be loaded into a running
process). This moves the object file initialization code into specific
initializer classes: lldb-test and liblldb get all object files;
lldb-server gets only one of them. For this to work, I've needed to
create a special SystemInitializer for use in lldb-server, instead of it
calling directly into the common one.
This reduces the size of lldb-server by about 2%, which is not
earth-shattering, but it's an easy win, and it helps.
