Jonas Devlieghere ac1dc1336a [Docs] Correct description of lldbinit behavior
Jim pointed out that "every time somebody has touched the documentation
on startup files they have stated that we source the application one and
then the global one, even though in actual fact we’ve never done that."

Indeed, when we read the application specific .lldbinit file, the global
one is not read. This patch updates the man page to reflect that.

Jonas Devlieghere b950c261d9 [lldb/Reproducers] Add top-level-target check-lldb-reproducers
This adds a new target `check-lldb-reproducers` that replaces the old
`check-lldb-repro`. The latter would only run the shell tests, while
`check-lldb-reproducers` includes the API tests as well. The new target
will be used on GreenDragon.

It's still possible to run just the shell tests with reproducers,
although now that requires crafting the lit invocation yourself. The
parameters haven't changed and are the shame for the API and shell
tests:

  --param lldb-run-with-repro=capture
  --param lldb-run-with-repro=replay

This patch also updates the reproducer documentation.

Jonas Devlieghere 82093e8fb7 [lldb/Driver] Fix handling on positional arguments
Before the transition to libOption it was possible to specify arguments
for the inferior without -- as long as they didn't start with a dash.

For example, the following invocations should all behave the same:

  $ lldb inferior inferior-arg
  $ lldb inferior -- inferior-arg
  $ lldb -- inferior inferior-arg

This patch fixes that behavior, documents it and adds a test to cover
the different combinations.

Jonas Devlieghere 3a6b60fa62 [lldb/Docs] Add some more info about the test suite structure
Expand on the structure of the LLDB test suite. So far this information

easier to understand our test suite for anyone that's new to the
project.

it safe to mark it as supported in the docs.

Med Ismail Bennani 7ebe9cc4fc [lldb/Target] Add Assert StackFrame Recognizer
When a thread stops, this checks depending on the platform if the top frame is
an abort stack frame. If so, it looks for an assert stack frame in the upper
frames and set it as the most relavant frame when found.

To do so, the StackFrameRecognizer class holds a "Most Relevant Frame" and a
"cooked" stop reason description. When the thread is about to stop, it checks
if the current frame is recognized, and if so, it fetches the recognized frame's
attributes and applies them.

Fred Riss 0478eadf73 [lldb/DataFormatters] Fix the `$$deference$$` synthetic child
Summary:
The ValueObject code checks for a special `$$dereference$$` synthetic
child to allow formatter providers to implement a natural
dereferencing behavior in `frame variable` for objects like smart
pointers.

This support was broken when used directly throught the Python API and
not trhough `frame variable`. The reason is that
SBFrame.FindVariable() will return by default the synthetic variable
if it exists, while `frame variable` will not do this eagerly. The
code in `ValueObject::Dereference()` accounted for the latter but not
for the former. The fix is trivial. The test change includes
additional covergage for the already-working bahevior as it wasn't
covered by the testsuite before.

This commit also adds a short piece of documentatione explaining that
it is possible (even advisable) to provide this synthetic child
outstide of the range of the normal children.

All the code required to generate the language bindings for Python and

scripts at all, and surrounded by scripts that are totally unrelated.

I've reorganized these files and moved everything related to the
language bindings into a new top-level directory named bindings. This
makes the corresponding files self contained and much more discoverable.
