Summary:
We sometimes need to write to the object file we've mapped into memory,
generally to apply relocations to debug info sections. We've had that
ability before, but with the introduction of DataBufferLLVM, we have
lost it, as the underlying llvm class (MemoryBuffer) only supports
read-only mappings.
This switches DataBufferLLVM to use the new llvm::WritableMemoryBuffer
class as a back-end, as this one guarantees to return a writable buffer.
This removes the need for the "Private" flag to the DataBufferLLVM
creation functions, as it was really used to mean "writable". The LLVM
function also does not have the NullTerminate flag, so I've modified our
clients to not require this feature and removed that flag as well.

This patch makes adjustments to header file includes in
lldbUtility based on recommendations by the iwyu tool
(include-what-you-use). The goal here is to make sure that
all files include the exact set of headers which are needed
for that file only, to eliminate cases of dead includes (e.g.
someone deleted some code but forgot to delete the header
includes that that code necessitated), and to eliminate the
case where header includes are picked up transitively.

This functionality is subsumed by DataBufferLLVM, which is
also more efficient since it will try to mmap. However, we
don't yet support mmaping writable private sections, and in
some cases we were using ReadFileContents and then modifying
the buffer. To address that I've added a flag to the
DataBufferLLVM methods that allow you to map privately, which
disables the mmaping path entirely. Eventually we should teach
DataBufferLLVM to use mmap with writable private, but that is
orthogonal to this effort.
