This patch introduces Scripted Processes to lldb.
The goal, here, is to be able to attach in the debugger to fake processes
that are backed by script files (in Python, Lua, Swift, etc ...) and
inspect them statically.
Scripted Processes can be used in cooperative multithreading environments
like the XNU Kernel or other real-time operating systems, but it can
also help us improve the debugger testing infrastructure by writting
synthetic tests that simulates hard-to-reproduce process/thread states.
Although ScriptedProcess is not feature-complete at the moment, it has
basic execution capabilities and will improve in the following patches.

In order to facilitate the writting of Scripted Processes, this patch
introduces a `ScriptedProcess` python base class in the lldb module.
The base class holds the python interface with all the - abstract -
methods that need to be implemented by the inherited class but also some
methods that can be overwritten.
This patch also provides an example of a Scripted Process with the
`MyScriptedProcess` class.
