- Include the qname, qserial and qkind in the JSON info
- Report the qname, qserial and qkind to the thread so it can cache it to avoid many packets on MacOSX and iOS

There are a couple of bugs in the XML register info handling which this patch fixes:
+ conflicting variable names in lambda, both capture list and parameters contains a variable called 'name'.
+ prev_reg_num, which sets the register number, should be incremented after each register is processed.
+ Windows errors regarding empty strings and the 'xi:' prefix disappearing from 'xi:include' node name.

A few extras were fixed
- Symbol::GetAddress() now returns an Address object, not a reference. There were places where people were accessing the address of a symbol when the symbol's value wasn't an address symbol. On MacOSX, undefined symbols have a value zero and some places where using the symbol's address and getting an absolute address of zero (since an Address object with no section and an m_offset whose value isn't LLDB_INVALID_ADDRESS is considered an absolute address). So fixing this required some changes to make sure people were getting what they expected.
- Since some places want to access the address as a reference, I added a few new functions to symbol:
Address &Symbol::GetAddressRef();
const Address &Symbol::GetAddressRef() const;
Linux test suite passes just fine now.

A "qSymbol::" is sent when shared libraries have been loaded by hooking into the Process::ModulesDidLoad() function from within ProcessGDBRemote. This function was made virtual so that the ProcessGDBRemote version is called, which then first calls the Process::ModulesDidLoad(), and then it queries for any symbol lookups that the remote GDB server might want to do.
This allows debugserver to request the "dispatch_queue_offsets" symbol so that it can read the queue name, queue kind and queue serial number and include this data as part of the stop reply packet. Previously each thread would have to do 3 memory reads in order to read the queue name.
This is part of reducing the number of packets that are sent between LLDB and the remote GDB server.

This patch adds a listener to the AynscThread in ProcessGDBRemote, specifically for dealing with any async notification packets.
From the broadcast our listener receives we can process the notify packet from the event data. A handler function then sets the thread stop info from this packet, and updates lldb by setting the process private state to stopped. Allowing the async thread to go back to sleep and getting the main thread to handle the implications of a state change.
When sending a vCont in nonstop mode we also get a different reply from all-stop mode, an OK response as opposed to a stop reply. So a condition is added to handle this and set the process state without the stop-reply data.

We have been working on reducing the packet count that is sent between LLDB and the debugserver on MacOSX and iOS. Our approach to this was to reduce the packets required when debugging multiple threads. We currently make one qThreadStopInfoXXXX call (where XXXX is the thread ID in hex) per thread except the thread that stopped with a stop reply packet. In order to implement multiple thread infos in a single reply, we need to use structured data, which means JSON. The new jThreadsInfo packet will attempt to retrieve all thread infos in a single packet. The data is very similar to the stop reply packets, but packaged in JSON and uses JSON arrays where applicable. The JSON output looks like:
[

"metype":6,
"medata":[2,0],

It contains an array of dicitionaries with all of the key value pairs that are normally in the stop reply packet. Including the expedited registers. Notice that is also contains expedited memory in the "memory" key. Any values in this memory will get included in a new L1 cache in lldb_private::Process where if a memory read request is made and that memory request fits into one of the L1 memory cache blocks, it will use that memory data. If a memory request fails in the L1 cache, it will fall back to the L2 cache which is the same block sized caching we were using before these changes. This allows a process to expedite memory that you are likely to use and it reduces packet count. On MacOSX with debugserver, we expedite the frame pointer backchain for a thread (up to 256 entries) by reading 2 pointers worth of bytes at the frame pointer (for the previous FP and PC), and follow the backchain. Most backtraces on MacOSX and iOS now don't require us to read any memory!
We will try these packets out and if successful, we should port these to lldb-server in the near future.

For some communication channels, sending large packets can be very
slow. In those cases, it may be faster to compress the contents of
the packet on the target device and decompress it on the debug host
system. For instance, communicating with a device using something
like Bluetooth may be an environment where this tradeoff is a good one.
This patch adds a new field to the response to the "qSupported" packet
(which returns a "qXfer:features:" response) -- SupportedCompressions
and DefaultCompressionMinSize. These tell you what the remote
stub can support.
lldb, if it wants to enable compression and can handle one of those
algorithms, it can send a QEnableCompression packet specifying the
algorithm and optionally the minimum packet size to use compression
on. lldb may have better knowledge about the best tradeoff for
a given communication channel.
I added support to debugserver an lldb to use the zlib APIs
(if -DHAVE_LIBZ=1 is in CFLAGS and -lz is in LDFLAGS) and the
libcompression APIs on Mac OS X 10.11 and later
(if -DHAVE_LIBCOMPRESSION=1). libz "zlib-deflate" compression.
libcompression can support deflate, lz4, lzma, and a proprietary
lzfse algorithm. libcompression has been hand-tuned for Apple
hardware so it should be preferred if available.
debugserver currently only adds the SupportedCompressions when
it is being run on an Apple watch (TARGET_OS_WATCH). Comment
that #if out from RNBRemote.cpp if you want to enable it to
see how it works. I haven't tested this on a native system
configuration but surely it will be slower to compress & decompress
the packets in a same-system debug session.
I haven't had a chance to add support for this to
GDBRemoteCommunciationServer.cpp yet.

llvm-svn: 240066
In order to support asynchronous notifications for non-stop mode this patch adds a packet read thread. This is done by implementing AppendBytesToCache() from the communications class, which continually reads packets into a packet queue. To initialize this thread StartReadThread() must be called by the client, so since llgs and platform tools use the GBDRemoteCommunicatos code they must also call this function as well as ProcessGDBRemote.
When the read thread detects an async notify packet it broadcasts this event, where the matching listener will be added in the next non-stop patch.
Packets are now accessed by calling ReadPacket() which pops a packet from the queue, instead of using WaitForPacketWithTimeoutMicroSecondsNoLock()

qEcho:%s
where '%s' is any valid string. The response to this packet is the exact packet itself with no changes, just reply with what you received!
This will help us to recover from packets timing out much more gracefully. Currently if a packet times out, LLDB quickly will hose up the debug session. For example, if we send a "abc" packet and we expect "ABC" back in response, but the "abc" command takes longer than the current timeout value this will happen:
--> "abc"
<-- <<<error: timeout>>>
Now we want to send "def" and get "DEF" back:
--> "def"
<-- "ABC"
We got the wrong response for the "def" packet because we didn't sync up with the server to clear any current responses from previously issues commands.
The fix is to modify GDBRemoteCommunication::WaitForPacketWithTimeoutMicroSecondsNoLock() so that when it gets a timeout, it syncs itself up with the client by sending a "qEcho:%u" where %u is an increasing integer, one for each time we timeout. We then wait for 3 timeout periods to sync back up. So the above "abc" session would look like:
--> "abc"
<-- <<<error: timeout>>> 1 second
--> "qEcho:1"
<-- <<<error: timeout>>> 1 second
<-- <<<error: timeout>>> 1 second
<-- "abc"
<-- "qEcho:1"
The first timeout is from trying to get the response, then we know we timed out and we send the "qEcho:1" packet and wait for 3 timeout periods to get back in sync knowing that we might actually get the response for the "abc" packet in the mean time...
In this case we would actually succeed in getting the response for "abc". But lets say the remote GDB server is deadlocked and will never response, it would look like:
--> "abc"
<-- <<<error: timeout>>> 1 second
--> "qEcho:1"
<-- <<<error: timeout>>> 1 second
<-- <<<error: timeout>>> 1 second
<-- <<<error: timeout>>> 1 second
We then disconnect and say we lost connection.
We might also have a bad GDB server that just dropped the "abc" packet on the floor. We can still recover in this case and it would look like:
--> "abc"
<-- <<<error: timeout>>> 1 second
--> "qEcho:1"
<-- "qEcho:1"
Then we know our remote GDB server is still alive and well, and it just dropped the "abc" response on the floor and we can continue to debug.

We know have on API we should use for all XML within LLDB in XML.h. This API will be easy back the XML parsing by different libraries in case libxml2 doesn't work on all platforms. It also allows the only place for #ifdef ...XML... to be in XML.h and XML.cpp. The API is designed so it will still compile with or without XML support and there is a static function "bool XMLDocument::XMLEnabled()" that can be called to see if XML is currently supported. All APIs will return errors, false, or nothing when XML isn't enabled.
Converted all locations that used XML over to using the host XML implementation.
Added target.xml support to debugserver. Extended the XML register format to work for LLDB by including extra attributes and elements where needed. This allows the target.xml to replace the qRegisterInfo packets and allows us to fetch all register info in a single packet.

on android the dynamic linker only reports the name of the SO file and
the platform can't always find it without a full path (the process can
