This implements the interactive trace start and stop methods.
This diff ended up being much larger than I anticipated because, by doing it, I found that I had implemented in the beginning many things in a non optimal way. In any case, the code is much better now.
There's a lot of boilerplate code due to the gdb-remote protocol, but the main changes are:
- New tracing packets: jLLDBTraceStop, jLLDBTraceStart, jLLDBTraceGetBinaryData. The gdb-remote packet definitions are quite comprehensive.
- Implementation of the "process trace start|stop" and "thread trace start|stop" commands.
- Implementaiton of an API in Trace.h to interact with live traces.
- Created an IntelPTDecoder for live threads, that use the debugger's stop id as checkpoint for its internal cache.
- Added a functionality to stop the process in case "process tracing" is enabled and a new thread can't traced.
- Added tests
I have some ideas to unify the code paths for post mortem and live threads, but I'll do that in another diff.

We have a plugin.process.gdb-remote.packet-timeout setting, which can be
used to control how long the lldb client is willing to wait before
declaring the server side dead. Our test suite makes use of this
feature, and sets the setting value fairly high, as the low default
value can cause flaky tests, particularly on slower bots.
After fixing TestPlatformConnect (one of the few tests exercising the
remote platform capabilities of lldb) in 4b284b9ca, it immediately
started being flaky on the arm bots. It turns out this is because the
packet-timeout setting is not being applied to platform connections.
This patch makes the platform connections also respect the value of this
setting. It also adds a test which checks that the timeout value is
being honored.

Native register descriptions in LLDB specify lldb register numbers in
value_regs and invalidate_regs lists. These register numbers may not
match with Process gdb-remote register numbers which are generated by
native process after counting all registers in its register sets.
It was coincidentally not causing any problems as we never came across
a native target with dynamically changing register sets and register
numbers generated by counter matched with LLDB native register numbers.
This came up while testing target AArch64 SVE which can choose register
sets based on underlying hardware.
This patch fixes this behavior and always tries to use remote register
numbers while reading/writing registers over gdb-remote protocol.

This patch builds on previously submitted SVE patches regarding expedited
register set and per thread register infos. (D82853 D82855 and D82857)
We need to resize SVE register based on value received in expedited list.
Also we need to resize SVE registers when we write vg register using
register write vg command. The resize will result in a updated offset
for all of fpr and sve register set. This offset will be configured
in native register context by RegisterInfoInterface and will also be
be updated on client side in GDBRemoteRegisterContext.
A follow up patch will provide a API test to verify this change.

In gdb-remote process we have register infos defind as a refernce object of

constant througout the life time of a process.
This has changed after AArch64 SVE support where register infos will have
per-thread configuration. SVE registers will have per-thread size and can
be updated while running. This patch aims to build up for that support by
changing GDBRemoteDynamicRegisterInfo reference to a shared pointer deinfed

This patch carries forward our aim to remove offset field from qRegisterInfo
packets and XML register description. I have created a new function which
returns if offset fields are dynamic meaning client can calculate offset on
its own based on register number sequence and register size. For now this
function only returns true for NativeRegisterContextLinux_arm64 but we can
test this for other architectures and make it standard later.
As a consequence we do not send offset field from lldb-server (arm64 for now)
while other stubs dont have an offset field so it wont effect them for now.
On the client side we have replaced previous offset calculation algorithm
with a new scheme, where we sort all primary registers in increasing
order of remote regnum and then calculate offset incrementally.
This committ also includes a test to verify all of above functionality
on Arm64.

Depends on D89283.
The goal of this packet (jTraceGetSupportedType) is to be able to query the gdb-server for the tracing technology that can work for the current debuggeer, which can make the user experience simpler but allowing the user to simply type
thread trace start
to start tracing the current thread without even telling the debugger to use "intel-pt", for example. Similarly, `thread trace start [args...]` would accept args beloging to the working trace type.
Also, if the user typed
help thread trace start
We could directly show the help information of the trace type that is supported for the target, or mention instead that no tracing is supported, if that's the case.
I added some simple tests, besides, when I ran this on my machine with intel-pt support, I got
$ process plugin packet send "jTraceSupportedType"
packet: jTraceSupportedType
response: {"description":"Intel Processor Trace","pluginName":"intel-pt"}
On a machine without intel-pt support, I got
$ process plugin packet send "jTraceSupportedType"

This patch redesigns the Target::GetUtilityFunctionForLanguage API:
- Use a unique_ptr instead of a raw pointer for the return type.
- Wrap the result in an llvm::Expected instead of using a Status object as an I/O parameter.
- Combine the action of "getting" and "installing" the UtilityFunction as they always get called together.
- Pass std::strings instead of const char* and std::move them where appropriate.
There's more room for improvement but I think this tackles the most
prevalent issues with the current API.

ptsname is not thread-safe. ptsname_r is available on most (but not all)
systems -- use it preferentially.
In the patch I also improve the thread-safety of the ptsname fallback
path by wrapping it in a mutex. This should guarantee the safety of a
typical ptsname implementation using a single static buffer, as long as
all callers go through this function.
I also remove the error arguments, as the only way this function can
fail is if the "primary" fd is not valid. This is a programmer error as
this requirement is documented, and all callers ensure that is the case.

Summary:
This packet is necessary to make lldb work with the remote-gdb stub in
user mode qemu when running position-independent binaries. It reports
the relative position (load bias) of the loaded executable wrt. the
addresses in the file itself.
Lldb needs to know this information in order to correctly set the load
address of the executable. Normally, lldb would be able to find this out
on its own by following the breadcrumbs in the process auxiliary vector,
but we can't do this here because qemu does not support the
qXfer:auxv:read packet.
This patch does not implement full scope of the qOffsets packet (it only
supports packets with identical code, data and bss offsets), because it
is not fully clear how should the different offsets be handled and I am
not aware of a producer which would make use of this feature (qemu will
always
<https://github.com/qemu/qemu/blob/master/linux-user/elfload.c#L2436>
return the same value for code and data offsets). In fact, even gdb
ignores the offset for the bss sections, and uses the "data" offset
instead. So, until the we need more of this packet, I think it's best
to stick to the simplest solution possible. This patch simply rejects
replies with non-uniform offsets.

This is how it should've been and brings it more in line with

This is mostly mechanical from a custom clang-tidy check, with a lot of

This doesn't actually modify StringRef yet, I'll do that in a follow-up.
Summary:
A *.cpp file header in LLDB (and in LLDB) should like this:
```
//===-- TestUtilities.cpp -------------------------------------------------===//
```
However in LLDB most of our source files have arbitrary changes to this format and
these changes are spreading through LLDB as folks usually just use the existing
source files as templates for their new files (most notably the unnecessary
editor language indicator `-*- C++ -*-` is spreading and in every review
someone is pointing out that this is wrong, resulting in people pointing out that this
is done in the same way in other files).
This patch removes most of these inconsistencies including the editor language indicators,
all the different missing/additional '-' characters, files that center the file name, missing
trailing `===//` (mostly caused by clang-format breaking the line).

When running the test suite with always capture on, a handful of tests
are failing because they have multiple targets and therefore multiple
GDB remote connections. The current reproducer infrastructure is capable
of dealing with that.
This patch reworks the GDB remote provider to support multiple GDB
remote connections, similar to how the reproducers support shadowing
multiple command interpreter inputs. The provider now keeps a list of
packet recorders which deal with a single GDB remote connection. During
replay we rely on the order of creation to match the number of packets
to the GDB remote connection.

Summary:
Previously the ABI plugin exposed some "register infos" and the
gdb-remote code used those to fill in the missing bits. Now, the
"filling in" code is in the ABI plugin itself, and the gdb-remote code
just invokes that.
The motivation for this is two-fold:
a) the "augmentation" logic is useful outside of process gdb-remote. For
instance, it would allow us to avoid repeating the register number
definitions in minidump code.
b) It gives more implementation freedom to the ABI classes. Now that
these "register infos" are essentially implementation details, classes
can use other methods to obtain dwarf/eh_frame register numbers -- for
instance they can consult llvm MC layer.
Since the augmentation code was not currently tested anywhere, I took
the opportunity to create a simple test for it.

Originally the idea was for providers to be defined close to where they
are used. While this helped designing the providers in such a way that
they don't depend on each other, it also means that it's not possible to
access them from a central place. This proved to be a problem for some
providers and resulted in them living in the reproducer class.
The ProcessGDBRemote provider is the last remaining exception. This
patch makes things consistent and moves it into the reproducer like the
other providers.
