Initially, lli only supported lazy mode for ORC. Greedy mode was added with e1579894d2 and it's the default setting now. DebugObjectManagerPlugin tests don't rely on laziness, so we can switch them to greedy in order to avoid some unnecessary complexity.
These tests were disabled by accident after D107640. Actually, REQUIRES lines don't support `x86_64` and so these tests stopped running on all targets.
`native && target-x86_64` should be the correct term to express "x86_64 host targeting native arch".
These tests rely on running IR code with an explicit x86_64 target triple. They won't work on other architectures. (They won't work for 32-bit processes on x86_64 hosts either. We will take care of this later.)

When lli runs the below IR, it emits in-memory debug objects and registers them with the GDB JIT interface. The tests dump and check the registered information. IR has limited ability to produce complex output in a portable way. Instead the tests rely on built-in functions implemented in lli. They use a new command line flag `-generate=function-name` to instruct the ORC JIT to expose the built-in function with the given name to the JITed program.
`debug-descriptor-elf-minimal.ll` calls `__dump_jit_debug_descriptor()` to reflect the list of debug entries issued for itself after emitting the main module. The output is textual and can be checked straight away.
`debug-objects-elf-minimal.ll` calls `__dump_jit_debug_objects()`, which instructs lli to walk through the list of debug entries and append the encountered in-memory objects to the program output. We feed this output into llvm-dwarfdump to parse the DWARF in each file and dump their structures.
We can do the same for JITLink once D97335 has landed.
