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"
packet: jTraceSupportedType
response: E00;

A lot of comments in LLDB are surrounded by an ASCII line to delimit the
begging and end of the comment.
Its use is not really consistent across the code base, sometimes the
lines are longer, sometimes they are shorter and sometimes they are
omitted. Furthermore, it looks kind of weird with the 80 column limit,
where the comment actually extends past the line, but not by much.
Furthermore, when /// is used for Doxygen comments, it looks
particularly odd. And when // is used, it incorrectly gives the
impression that it's actually a Doxygen comment.
I assume these lines were added to improve distinguishing between
comments and code. However, given that todays editors and IDEs do a
great job at highlighting comments, I think it's worth to drop this for
the sake of consistency. The alternative is fixing all the
inconsistencies, which would create a lot more churn.

to reflect the new license.
We understand that people may be surprised that we're moving the header
entirely to discuss the new license. We checked this carefully with the
Foundation's lawyer and we believe this is the correct approach.
Essentially, all code in the project is now made available by the LLVM
project under our new license, so you will see that the license headers
include that license only. Some of our contributors have contributed
code under our old license, and accordingly, we have retained a copy of
our old license notice in the top-level files in each project and
repository.

Summary:
It defined a couple of types (condition_t) which we don't use anymore,
as we have c++11 goodies now. I remove these definitions.
Also it unnecessarily included a couple of headers which weren't
necessary for it's operation. I remove these, and place the includes in
the relevant files (usually .cpp, usually in Host code) which use them.
This allows us to reduce namespace pollution in most of the lldb files
which don't need the OS-specific definitions.

Summary:
The classes have no dependencies, and they are used both by lldb and
lldb-server, so it makes sense for them to live in the lowest layers.

Summary:
This patch implements support for Intel(R) Processor Trace
in lldb server. The changes have support for
starting/stopping and reading the trace data. The code
is only available on Linux versions where the perf
attributes for aux buffers are available.
The patch also consists of Unit tests for testing the
core buffer reading function.
