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.

The new FreeBSDRemote plugin has reached feature parity with the legacy
plugin, so we can finally remove the latter. The new plugin will
be renamed to FreeBSD in a separate commit to avoid confusion.

Renamed ThreadIntelPT to TreaceThread, making it a top-level class. I noticed that this class can and shuld work for any trace plugin and there's nothing intel-pt specific in it.
With that TraceThread change, I was able to move most of the json file parsing logic to the base class TraceSessionFileParser, which makes adding new plug-ins easier.
This originally was part of https://reviews.llvm.org/D89283

Depends on D88841
As per the discussion in the RFC, we'll implement both
thread trace dump [instructions | functions]
This is the first step in implementing the "instructions" dumping command.
It includes:
- A minimal ProcessTrace plugin for representing processes from a trace file. I noticed that it was a required step to mimic how core-based processes are initialized, e.g. ProcessElfCore and ProcessMinidump. I haven't had the need to create ThreadTrace yet, though. So far HistoryThread seems good enough.
- The command handling itself in CommandObjectThread, which outputs a placeholder text instead of the actual instructions. I'll do that part in the next diff.
- Tests

Add a new FreeBSD Process plugin using client/server model. This plugin
is based on the one used by NetBSD. It currently supports a subset
of functionality for amd64. It is automatically used when spawning
lldb-server. It can also be used by lldb client by setting
FREEBSD_REMOTE_PLUGIN environment variable (to any value).
The code is capable of debugging simple single-threaded programs. It
supports general purpose, debug and FPU registers (up to XMM) of amd64,
basic signalling, software breakpoints.
Adding the support for the plugin involves removing some dead code
from FreeBSDPlatform plugin (that was not ever used because
CanDebugProcess() returned false), and replacing it with appropriate
code from NetBSD platform support.
Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D88796
Summary:
The plugin already builds fine on other platforms (linux, at least). All
that was necessary was to revitalize the hack in PlatformDarwinKernel
(not a very pretty hack, but it gets us going at least).
I haven't done a thorough investigation of the state of the plugin on
other platforms, but at least the two core file tests we have seem to
pass, so I enable them.

Summary:
This is the base for introduction of further features to support Process Tracing on NetBSD, in local and remote setup.
This code is also a starting point to synchronize the development with other BSDs. Currently NetBSD is ahead and other systems can catch up.

Summary:
This patch removes the over-specified dependencies from LLDBDependencies and instead relies on the dependencies as expressed in each library and tool.
This also removes the library looping in favor of allowing CMake to do its thing. I've tested this patch on Darwin, and found no issues, but since linker semantics vary by system I'll also work on testing it on other platforms too.
Help testing would be greatly appreciated.

Summary:
The NDK cmake toolchain file defines CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME=Android, so switch the
build to use that. I have also updated the in-tree toolchain file to do that
(instead of defining __ANDROID_NDK__), so it can still be used to build.
After migrating the last bits of non-toolchainy bits out of the in-tree
toolchain, I intend to delete it.

The Windows process plugin was broken up into multiple pieces a while back in
order to share code between debugging live processes and minidumps
(postmortem) debugging. The minidump portion was replaced by a cross-platform
solution. This left the plugin split into a formerly "common" base classes and
the derived classes for live debugging. This extra layer made the code harder
to understand and work with.
This patch simplifies these class hierarchies by rolling the live debugging
concrete classes up to the base classes. Last week I posted my intent to make
this change to lldb-dev, and I didn't hear any objections.
This involved moving code and changing references to classes like
ProcessWindowsLive to ProcessWindows. It still builds for both 32- and 64-bit,
and the tests still pass on 32-bit. (Tests on 64-bit weren't passing before
this refactor for unrelated reasons.)

With the cross-platform minidump plugin working, the Windows-specific one is no longer needed. This eliminates the unnecessary code.
This does not eliminate the Windows-specific tests, as they hit a few cases the general tests don't. (The Windows-specific tests are currently passing.) I'll look into a separate patch to make sure we're not doing too much duplicate testing.
After that I might do a little re-org in the Windows plugin, as there was some factoring there (Common & Live) that probably isn't necessary anymore.

Summary:
This is a Minidump parsing code.
There are still some more structures/data streams that need to be added.
The aim ot this is to be used in the implementation of
a minidump debugging plugin that works on all platforms/architectures.
Currently we have a windows-only plugin that uses the WinAPI to parse
the dump files.
Also added unittests for the current functionality.

This patch moves creates a thread abstraction that represents a
thread running inside the LLDB process. This is a replacement for
otherwise using lldb::thread_t, and provides a platform agnostic
interface to managing these threads.

RegisterContextCoreLinux_x86_64 inherits from RegisterContextLinux_x86_64 which inherits from RegisterContext_x86_64 which uses has:
ProcessMonitor &GetMonitor();
This register context used by the core file can't use this since the process plug-in will be ProcessElfCore and the implementation of GetMonitor() does:
ProcessMonitor &
RegisterContext_x86_64::GetMonitor()
{
ProcessSP base = CalculateProcess();
ProcessPOSIX *process = static_cast<ProcessPOSIX*>(base.get());
return process->GetMonitor();
}
ProcessELFCore doesn't, nor should it inherit from ProcessPOSIX and any call to GetMonitor() will fail for ELF core files.
Suggested cleanups:
- Make a register context class that is a base class that doesn't have any reading smarts, then make one that uses ProcessPOSIX and the has the GetMonitor() call, and one that gets its data straight from the core file.

- generate-vers.pl has to be called by cmake to generate the version number
- parallel builds not yet supported; dependency on clang must be explicitly specified
Tested on Linux.
- Building on Mac will require code-signing logic to be implemented.
- Building on Windows will require OS-detection logic and some selective directory inclusion
