The test invokes the 'targetname' test command before setting a
target executable, which caused Python to raise TypeError: cannot
concatenate 'str' and 'NoneType' objects.

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
llvm-svn: 238286
The semi-unofficial way of returning a status from a Python command was to return a string (e.g. return "no such variable was found") that LLDB would pick as a clue of an error having happened
This checkin changes that:
- SBCommandReturnObject now exports a SetError() call, which can take an SBError or a plain C-string
- script commands now drop any return value and expect the SBCommandReturnObject ("return object") to be filled in appropriately - if you do nothing, a success will be assumed
If your commands were relying on returning a value and having LLDB pick that up as an error, please change your commands to SetError() through the return object or expect changes in behavior

a) adds a new --synchronicity (-s) setting for "command script add" that allows the user to decide if scripted commands should run synchronously or asynchronously (which can make a difference in how events are handled)
b) clears up several error messages
c) adds a new --allow-reload (-r) setting for "command script import" that allows the user to reload a module even if it has already been imported before
d) allows filename completion for "command script import" (much like what happens for "target create")
e) prevents "command script add" from replacing built-in commands with scripted commands
f) changes AddUserCommand() to take an std::string instead of a const char* (for performance reasons)
plus, it fixes an issue in "type summary add" command handling which caused several test suite errors
