Main changes in this patch include:
- cleanup plug-in interface and use ConstStrings for plug-in names
- Modfiied the BSD Archive plug-in to be able to pick out the correct .o file when .a files contain multiple .o files with the same name by using the timestamp
- Modified SymbolFileDWARFDebugMap to properly verify the timestamp on .o files it loads to ensure we don't load updated .o files and cause problems when debugging
The plug-in interface changes:
Modified the lldb_private::PluginInterface class that all plug-ins inherit from:
Changed:
virtual const char * GetPluginName() = 0;
To:
virtual ConstString GetPluginName() = 0;
Removed:
virtual const char * GetShortPluginName() = 0;
- Fixed up all plug-in to adhere to the new interface and to return lldb_private::ConstString values for the plug-in names.
- Fixed all plug-ins to return simple names with no prefixes. Some plug-ins had prefixes and most ones didn't, so now they all don't have prefixed names, just simple names like "linux", "gdb-remote", etc.

LLDB is crashing when logging is enabled from lldb-perf-clang. This has to do with the global destructor chain as the process and its threads are being torn down.
All logging channels now make one and only one instance that is kept in a global pointer which is never freed. This guarantees that logging can correctly continue as the process tears itself down.

Found a race condition when sending async packets in the ProcessGDBRemote.
A little background: GDB remote clients can only send one packet at a time. You must send a packet and wait for a response. So when we continue, we obviously can't hold up the calling thread waiting for the process to stop again, so we have an async thread in the ProcessGDBRemote whose only job is to run packets that control the inferior process. When you send a continue packet, the only packet you can send is an interrupt packet (which consists of sending a CTRL+C (or a '\x03' byte)). This then stops the inferior and we can send the async packet, and then resume the target. There was a race condition that often happened during stepping where we are doing a source level single step which consists of many instruction steps and a few runs here and there when we step into a function. So the flow looks like:
inst single step
inst single step
inst single step
inst single step
inst single step
step BP and run
inst single step
inst single step
inst single step
Now if we got an async packet while the program is running we get something like:
send --> continue
send --> interrupt
recv <-- interrupt stop reply packet
send --> async packet
recv <-- async response
send --> continue again and wait for actual stop
Problems arise when this was happening when single stepping a thread where we would get:
send --> step thread 123
send --> interrupt
send --> stop reply for thread 123 (from the step)
Now we _might_ have an extra stop reply packet from the "interrupt" which we weren't checking for and we could end up with:
send --> async packet (like memory read!)
recv <-- async response (which is the interrupt stop reply packet)
Now we have the read memroy reply sitting in our buffer and waiting to be used as the reply for the next packet...
To further complicate things, the single step should have exited the async thread since the run control is finished, but now it will continue if it was interrupted.
The fixes I checked in to two major things:
- watch for the extra stop reply if we need to
- make sure we exit from the async thread run loop when the previous run control (like the instruction level single step) is finished.
Needless to say this makes very fast stepping in Xcode much more reliable.

due to RTTI worries since llvm and clang don't use RTTI, but I was able to
switch back with no issues as far as I can tell. Once the RTTI issue wasn't
an issue, we were looking for a way to properly track weak pointers to objects
to solve some of the threading issues we have been running into which naturally
led us back to std::tr1::weak_ptr. We also wanted the ability to make a shared
pointer from just a pointer, which is also easily solved using the
std::tr1::enable_shared_from_this class.
The main reason for this move back is so we can start properly having weak
references to objects. Currently a lldb_private::Thread class has a refrence
to its parent lldb_private::Process. This doesn't work well when we now hand
out a SBThread object that contains a shared pointer to a lldb_private::Thread
as this SBThread can be held onto by external clients and if they end up
using one of these objects we can easily crash.
So the next task is to start adopting std::tr1::weak_ptr where ever it makes
sense which we can do with lldb_private::Debugger, lldb_private::Target,
lldb_private::Process, lldb_private::Thread, lldb_private::StackFrame, and
many more objects now that they are no longer using intrusive ref counted
pointer objects (you can't do std::tr1::weak_ptr functionality with intrusive
pointers).

changing it to use it. There was an extra parameter added to the static
accessor global user settings controllers that wasn't needed. A bool was being
used as a parameter to the accessor just so it could be used to clean up
the global user settings controller which is now fixed by splitting up the
initialization into the "static void Class::Initialize()", access into the
"static UserSettingsControllerSP & Class::GetSettingsController()", and
cleanup into "static void Class::Terminate()".
Also added initialize and terminate calls to the logging code to avoid issues
when LLDB is shutting down. There were cases after the logging was switched
over to use shared pointers where we could crash if the global destructor
chain was being run and it causes the log to be destroyed and any any logging
occurred.

don't crash if we disable logging when some code already has a copy of the
logger. Prior to this fix, logs were handed out as pointers and if they were
held onto while a log got disabled, then it could cause a crash. Now all logs
are handed out as shared pointers so this problem shouldn't happen anymore.
We are also using our new shared pointers that put the shared pointer count
and the object into the same allocation for a tad better performance.

than just the entire log channel.
Add checks, where appropriate, to make sure a log channel/category has
not been disabled before attempting to write to it.

all of the calls inlined in the header file for better performance.
Fixed the summary for C string types (array of chars (with any combo if
modifiers), and pointers to chars) work in all cases.
Fixed an issue where a forward declaration to a clang type could cause itself
to resolve itself more than once if, during the resolving of the type itself
it caused something to try and resolve itself again. We now remove the clang
type from the forward declaration map in the DWARF parser when we start to
resolve it and avoid this additional call. This should stop any duplicate
members from appearing and throwing all the alignment of structs, unions and
classes.
