This patch introduces a concept of "frame recognizer" and "recognized frame". This should be an extensible mechanism that retrieves information about special frames based on ABI, arguments or other special properties of that frame, even without source code. A few examples where that could be useful could be 1) objc_exception_throw, where we'd like to get the current exception, 2) terminate_with_reason and extracting the current terminate string, 3) recognizing Objective-C frames and automatically extracting the receiver+selector, or perhaps all arguments (based on selector).

We had hard-coded the path in the docs but that got
out of date - showing again that -P is the better
way to do this.

Summary:
There were previously no instructions for building LLDB on Mac OS X
with CMake. It's sufficiently close to building on Linux/FreeBSD/NetBSD that a
well-motivated developer could figure out the steps themselves. However, having
an explicit guide is better and can provide Mac OS X specific configurations
(e.g. LLDB_BUILD_FRAMEWORK).

Summary:
LLDB_TEST_COMPILER is not a valid option for CMake for LLDB. There are instead two properties LLDB_TEST_C_COMPILER and LLDB_TEST_CXX_COMPILER. Update the documents accordingly to reflect the correct information.

Summary:
Due to recent refactors, the descriptions of various modules were wildly
out of date. With this patch, I am not trying to legislate anything,
I am merely documenting the current state of affairs.
I am also deleting one copy of the architecture docs. AFAIK, this one is
not referenced from the web page.

Summary:
The toolchain file has been deprecated in favor of the "official"
toolchain file present in the Android NDK. Also update the web
build instructions to reflect this.

Summary:
After this change a sythetic child provider can generate a special child
named "$$dereference$$" what if present is used when "operator*" or
"operator->" used on a ValueObject. The goal of the change is to make
expressions like "up->foo" work inside the "frame variable" command.

This was a list that I've had kicking around for a while, and would
add to whenever some hallway conversation would bring up another good
idea. It's not doing any good on my desktop, but it might generate
some inspiration here. Please add to this if you have any other
good ideas.
I apologize for the formatting, but if I wait to get it looking
nice it would probably stay on my desktop.

Summary:
This change fixes an issue where I was leaking a weakly-linked symbol in
the SBAPI. It also updates the docs to call out what I did wrong.

I added a "thread-stop-format" to distinguish between the form
that is just the thread info (since the stop printing immediately prints
the frame info) and one with more frame 0 info - which is useful for
"thread list" and the like.
I also added a frame.no-debug boolean to the format entities so you can
print frame information differently between frames with source info and those
without.
This closes https://reviews.llvm.org/D26383.

autoconf+make have been removed from LLVM and LLDB ~6month ago. We
shouldn't advertise it on the website as a valid way to build LLDB.
