For Hexagon we want to be able to call functions during debugging, however currently lldb only supports this when there is JIT support.
Although emulation using IR interpretation is an alternative, it is currently limited in that it can't make function calls.
In this patch we have extended the IR interpreter so that it can execute a function call on the target using register manipulation.
To do this we need to handle the Call IR instruction, passing arguments to a new thread plan and collecting any return values to pass back into the IR interpreter.
The new thread plan is needed to call an alternative ABI interface of "ABI::PerpareTrivialCall()", allowing more detailed information about arguments and return values.

Summary:
This is the first part of our effort to make llgs single threaded. Currently, llgs consists of
about three threads and the synchronisation between them is a major source of latency when
debugging linux and android applications.
In order to be able to go single threaded, we must have the ability to listen for events from
multiple sources (primarily, client commands coming over the network and debug events from the
inferior) and perform necessary actions. For this reason I introduce the concept of a MainLoop.
A main loop has the ability to register callback's which will be invoked upon receipt of certain
events. MainLoopPosix has the ability to listen for file descriptors and signals.
For the moment, I have merely made the GDBRemoteCommunicationServerLLGS class use MainLoop
instead of waiting on the network socket directly, but the other threads still remain. In the
followup patches I indend to migrate NativeProcessLinux to this class and remove the remaining
threads.

- Don't have any header files claim to be part of the lldb-core target. If they are part of the lldb-core target then any file can just #include the header file name without the prefix (#include "Foo.h") when the cmake/make/other builds would require a full path (#include "lldb/Core/Foo.h"). This will help make sure the builds succeed on all platforms when changes are made on MacOSX.
- Add the Hexagon dynamic loader to the DynamicLoader plug-in folder so it gets compiled in MacOSX. There was a recent build bot failure that wasn't caught due to this code not being compile in the MacOSX build

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.

lldb::addr_t SBFrame::GetCFA();
This gets the CFA (call frame address) of the frame so it allows us to take an address that is on the stack and figure out which thread it comes from.
Also modified the heap.py module to be able to find out which variable in a frame's stack frame contains an address. This way when ptr_refs finds a match on the stack, it get then report which variable contains the pointer.

This works for Python commands defined via a class (implement get_flags on your class) and C++ plugin commands (which can call SBCommand::GetFlags()/SetFlags())
Flags allow features such as not letting the command run if there's no target, or if the process is not stopped, ...
Commands could always check for these things themselves, but having these accessible via flags makes custom commands more consistent with built-in ones

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.

Summary:
Since all TSC operations are now executed synchronously, TSC has become a little more than a
messenger between different parts of NativeProcessLinux. Therefore, the reason for its existance
has disappeared.
This commit moves the contents of the TSC into the NPL class. This will enable us to remove all
the boilerplate code in NPL (as it stands now, this is most of the class), which I plan to do in
subsequent commits.
Unfortunately, this also means we will lose the unit tests for the TSC. However, since the size
of the TSC has diminished, the unit tests were not testing much at this point anyway, so it's not
a big loss.
No functional change.
Test Plan: All tests continue to pass.

In an effort to reduce binary size for components not wishing to
link against all of LLDB, as well as a parallel effort to reduce
link dependencies on Python, this patch splits out the notion of
LLDB initialization into "full" and "common" initialization.
All code related to initializing the full LLDB suite lives directly
in API now. Previously it was only referenced from API, but because
it was defined in lldbCore, it would get implicitly linked against
by everything including lldb-server, causing a considerable
increase in binary size.
By moving this to the API layer, it also creates a better layering
for the ongoing effort to make the embedded interpreter replacable
with one from a different language (or even be completely removeable).
One semantic change necessary to get this all working was to remove
the notion of a shared debugger refcount. The debugger is either
initialized or uninitialized now, and calling Initialize() multiple
times will simply have no effect, while the first Terminate() will
now shut it down no matter how many times Initialize() was called.
This behaves nicely with all of our supported usage patterns though,
and allows us to fix a number of nasty hacks from before.

This creates a new top-level folder called Initialization which
is intended to hold code specific to LLDB system initialization.
Currently this holds the Initialize() and Terminate() functions,
as well as the fatal error handler.
This provides a means to break the massive dependency cycle which
is caused by the fact that Debugger depends on Initialize and
Terminate which then depends on the entire LLDB project. With
this structure, it will be possible for applications to invoke
lldb_private::Initialize() directly, and have that invoke
Debugger::Initialize.
