Eliminate boilerplate of having each test manually assign to `mydir` by calling
`compute_mydir` in lldbtest.py.

This infrastructure has proven proven its worth, so give it a more
prominent place.
My immediate motivation for this is the desire to reuse this
infrastructure for qemu platform testing, but I believe this move makes
sense independently of that. Moving this code to the packages tree will
allow as to add more structure to the gdb client tests -- currently they
are all crammed into the same test folder as that was the only way they
could access this code.
I'm splitting the code into two parts while moving it. The first once
contains just the generic gdb protocol wrappers, while the other one
contains the unit test glue. The reason for that is that for qemu
testing, I need to run the gdb code in a separate process, so I will
only be using the first part there.

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.
