This builds on https://reviews.llvm.org/D43884 and https://reviews.llvm.org/D43886 and extends LLDB support of Obj-C exceptions to also look for a "current exception" for a thread in the C++ exception handling runtime metadata (via call to __cxa_current_exception_type). We also construct an actual historical SBThread/ThreadSP that contains frames from the backtrace in the Obj-C exception object.
The high level goal this achieves is that when we're already crashed (because an unhandled exception occurred), we can still access the exception object and retrieve the backtrace from the throw point. In Obj-C, this is particularly useful because a catch+rethrow is very common and in those cases you currently don't have any access to the throw point backtrace.

Summary:
This function was named such because in the case of MachO files, the
mach header is located at this address. However all (most?) usages of
this function were not interested in that fact, but the fact that this
address is used as the base address for expressing various relative
addresses in the object file.
For other object file formats, this name is not appropriate (and it's
probably the reason why this function was not implemented in these
classes). In the ELF case the ELF header will usually end up at this
address, but this is a result of the linker optimizing the file layout
and not a requirement of the spec. For COFF files, I believe the is no
header located at this address either.

This patch changes the way the reproducer is initialized. Rather than
making changes at run time we now do everything at initialization time.
To make this happen we had to introduce initializer options and their SB
variant. This allows us to tell the initializer that we're running in
reproducer capture/replay mode.
Because of this change we also had to alter our testing strategy. We
cannot reinitialize LLDB when using the dotest infrastructure. Instead
we use lit and invoke two instances of the driver.
Another consequence is that we can no longer enable capture or replay
through commands. This was bound to go away form the beginning, but I
had something in mind where you could enable/disable specific providers.
However this seems like it adds very little value right now so the
corresponding commands were removed.
Finally this change also means you now have to control this through the
driver, for which I replaced --reproducer with --capture and --replay to
differentiate between the two modes.

This adds new APIs and a command to deal with exceptions (mostly Obj-C exceptions): SBThread and Thread get GetCurrentException API, which returns an SBValue/ValueObjectSP with the current exception for a thread. "Current" means an exception that is currently being thrown, caught or otherwise processed. In this patch, we only know about the exception when in objc_exception_throw, but subsequent patches will expand this (and add GetCurrentExceptionBacktrace, which will return an SBThread/ThreadSP containing a historical thread backtrace retrieved from the exception object. Currently unimplemented, subsequent patches will implement this).
Extracting the exception from objc_exception_throw is implemented by adding a frame recognizer.
This also add a new sub-command "thread exception", which prints the current exception.

When I landed the initial reproducer framework I knew there were some
things that needed improvement. Rather than bundling it with a patch
that adds more functionality I split it off into this patch. I also
think the API is stable enough to add unit testing, which is included in
this patch as well.
Other improvements include:
- Refactor how we initialize the loader and generator.
- Improve naming consistency: capture and replay seems the least ambiguous.
- Index providers by name and make sure there's only one of each.
- Add convenience methods for creating and accessing providers.

When debugging read-only memory we cannot use software breakpoint. We
already have support for hardware breakpoints and users can specify them
with `-H`. However, there's no option to force LLDB to use hardware
breakpoints internally, for example while stepping.
This patch adds a setting target.require-hardware-breakpoint that forces
LLDB to always use hardware breakpoints. Because hardware breakpoints
are a limited resource and can fail to resolve, this patch also extends
error handling in thread plans, where breakpoints are used for stepping.

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.

For the reproducer feature I need to be able to export and import the

functionality to print settings. With the help of a new formatting
option, we can now write the settings and their values to a file
structured as regular commands.
Concretely the functionality works as follows:
(lldb) settings export -f /path/to/file
This file contains a bunch of settings set commands, followed by the
setting's name and value.
...
settings set use-external-editor false
settings set use-color true
settings set auto-one-line-summaries true
settings set auto-indent true
...
You can import the settings again by either sourcing the file or using
the settings read command.

When we get the `resolve_scope` parameter from the SB API, it's a
`uint32_t`. We then pass it through all of LLDB this way, as a uint32.
This is unfortunate, because it means the user of an API never actually
knows what they're dealing with. We can call it something like
`resolve_scope` and have comments saying "this is a value from the
`SymbolContextItem` enumeration, but it makes more sense to just have it
actually *be* the correct type in the actual C++ type system to begin
with. This way the person reading the code just knows what it is.
The reason to use integers instead of enumerations for flags is because
when you do bitwise operations on enumerations they get promoted to
integers, so it makes it tedious to constantly be casting them back
to the enumeration types, so I've introduced a macro to make this
happen magically. By writing LLDB_MARK_AS_BITMASK_ENUM after defining
an enumeration, it will define overloaded operators so that the
returned type will be the original enum. This should address all
the mechanical issues surrounding using rich enum types directly.
This way, we get a better debugger experience, and new users to
the codebase can get more easily acquainted with the codebase because
their IDE features can help them understand what the types mean.

The -force option allows you to pass an empty value to settings set to
reset the value to its default. This means that the following operations
are equivalent:
settings set -f <setting>
settings clear <setting>
The motivation for this change is the ability to export and import
settings from LLDB. Because of the way the dumpers work, we don't know
whether a value is going to be the default or not. Hence we cannot use
settings clear and use settings set -f, potentially providing an empty
value.

Summary:
Add settings to control command echoing:
```
(lldb) settings set interpreter.echo-commands true
(lldb) settings set interpreter.echo-comment-commands true
```
Both settings default to true, which keeps LLDB's existing behavior in non-interactive mode (echo all command inputs to the output).
So far the only way to change this behavior was the `--source-quietly` flag, which disables all output including evaluation results.
Now `echo-commands` allows to turn off echoing for commands, while evaluation results are still printed. No effect if `--source-quietly` was present.
`echo-comment-commands` allows to turn off echoing for commands in case they are pure comment lines. No effect if `echo-commands` is false.
Note that the behavior does not change immediately! The new settings take effect only with the next command source.
LLDB lit test are the main motivation for this feature. So far incoming `#CHECK` line have always been echoed to the output and so they could never fail. Now we can disable it in lit-lldb-init.
Todos: Finish test for this feature. Add to lit-lldb-init. Check for failing lit tests.

When creating a target, lldb loads all dependent files (i.e. libs in
LC_LOAD_DYLIB for Mach-O). This can be confusing, especially when two
versions of the same library end up in the shared cache. It's possible
to change this behavior, by specifying target create -d <target> these
dependents are not loaded.
This patch changes the default behavior to only load dependent files
only when the target is an executable. When creating a target for a
library, it is now no longer necessary to pass -d. The user can still
override this behavior by specifying the -d option to change this
behavior.

Summary:
This patch adds a framework for adding descriptions to the command completions we provide.
It also adds descriptions for completed top-level commands so that we can test this code.
Completions are in general supposed to be displayed alongside the completion itself. The descriptions
can be used to provide additional information about the completion to the user. Examples for descriptions
are function signatures when completing function calls in the expression command or the binary name
when providing completion for a symbol.
There is still some boilerplate code from the old completion API left in LLDB (mostly because the respective
APIs are reused for non-completion related purposes, so the CompletionRequest doesn't make sense to be
used), so that's why I still had to change some function signatures. Also, as the old API only passes around a
list of matches, and the descriptions are for these functions just another list, I had to add some code that
essentially just ensures that both lists are always the same side (e.g. all the manual calls to
`descriptions->AddString(X)` below a `matches->AddString(Y)` call).
The initial command descriptions that come with this patch are just reusing the existing
short help that is already added in LLDB.
An example completion with descriptions looks like this:
```
(lldb) pl
Available completions:
platform -- Commands to manage and create platforms.
plugin -- Commands for managing LLDB plugins.
```

Summary:
This patch adds initial code completion support for the `expr` command.
We now have a completion handler in the expression CommandObject that
essentially just attempts to parse the given user expression with Clang with
an attached code completion consumer. We filter and prepare the
code completions provided by Clang and send them back to the completion
API.
The current completion is limited to variables that are in the current scope.
This includes local variables and all types used by local variables. We however
don't do any completion of symbols that are not used in the local scope (or
in some other way already in the ASTContext).
This is partly because there is not yet any code that manually searches for additiona
information in the debug information. Another cause is that for some reason the existing
code for loading these additional symbols when requested by Clang doesn't seem to work.
This will be fixed in a future patch.
