Summary:
Some of these were present in files which should never be read by swig
(and we also had one in the interface file, which is only read by swig).
They are probably leftovers from the time when we were running swig over
lldb headers directly.
While writing this patch, I noticed that some of the #ifdefs were
guarding public functions that were operating on lldb_private data
types. While it wasn't strictly necessary for this patch, I made these
private, as nobody should really be accessing them. This can potentially
break existing code if it happened to use these methods, though it will
only break at build time -- if someone builds against an old header, he
should still be able to link to a new lldb library, since the functions
are still there.
We could keep these public for backward compatbility, but I would argue
that if anyone was actually using these functions for anything, his code
is already broken.

This patch moves the modify-python-lldb code for adding new functions to

class using this functionality, I also remove all support for this kind
of modifications from modify-python-lldb.py.

Summary:
Instead of modifying the swig-generated code, just add the appropriate
methods to the interface files in order to get the swig to do the
generation for us.
This is a straight-forward move from the python script to the interface
files. The single class which has nontrivial handling in the script
(SBModule) has been left for a separate patch.
For the cases where I did not find any tests exercising the
iteration/length methods (i.e., no tests failed after I stopped emitting
them), I tried to add basic tests for that functionality.

Summary:
modify-python-lldb.py had code to insert python equality operators to
some classes. Some of those classes already had c++ equality operators,
and some didn't.
This makes the situation more consistent, by removing all equality
handilng from modify-python-lldb. Instead, I add c++ operators to
classes where they were missing, and expose them in the swig interface
files so that they are available to python too.
The only tricky case was the SBAddress class, which had an operator==
defined as a free function, which is not handled by swig. This function
cannot be removed without breaking ABI, and we cannot add an extra
operator== member, as that would make equality comparisons ambiguous.
For this class, I define a python __eq__ function by hand and have it
delegate to the operator!=, which I have defined as a member function.
This isn't fully NFC, as the semantics of some equality functions in
python changes slightly, but I believe it changes for the better (e.g.,
previously SBBreakpoint.__eq__ would consider two breakpoints with the
same ID as equal, even if they belonged to different targets; now they
are only equal if they belong to the same target).

Summary:
In my next step at cleaning up modify-python-lldb.py, I started focusing
on equality comparison. To my surprise, I found out that both python and
c++ versions of the SBType class implement equality comparison, but each
one does it differently. While the python version was implemented in
terms of type name equality, the C++ one used a deep comparison on the
underlying objects.
Removing the python version caused one test to fail (TestTypeList). This
happened because the c++ version of operator== boiled down to
TypePair::operator==, which contains two items: the compiler_type and
type_sp. In this case, the compiler_type was identical, but one of the
objects had the type_sp field unset.
I tried fixing the code so that both objects keep their type_sp member,
but it wasn't easy, because there are so many operations which just work
with the CompilerType types, and so any operation on the SBType (the
test in question was doing GetPointeeType on the type of one variable
and expecting it to match the type of another variable), cause that
second member to be lost.
So instead, here I relax the equality comparison on the TypePair
class. Now, this class ignores the type_sp for the purposes of
comparison, and uses the CompilerType only. This seems reasonable, as
each TypeSP is able to convert itself to a CompilerType.

Summary:
Our python version of the SB API has (the python equivalent of)
operator bool, but the C++ version doesn't.
This is because our python operators are added by modify-python-lldb.py,
which performs postprocessing on the swig-generated interface files.
In this patch, I add the "operator bool" to all SB classes which have an
IsValid method (which is the same logic used by modify-python-lldb.py).
This way, we make the two interfaces more constent, and it allows us to
rely on swig's automatic syntesis of python __nonzero__ methods instead
of doing manual fixups.

Summary:
Swig is perfectly capable of inserting blocks of python code into its
output (and we use those fascilities already), so there's no need for
this to be done in a post-process step.
lldb_iter is a general-purpose utility used from many classes, so I add
it to the main swig file. The other two blocks are tied to a specific
class, so I add it to the interface file of that class.

Summary:
This patch adds support of expression evaluation in a context of some object.
Consider the following example:
```
struct S {
int a = 11;
int b = 12;
};
int main() {
S s;
int a = 1;
int b = 2;
// We have stopped here
return 0;
}
```
This patch allows to do something like that:
```
lldb.frame.FindVariable("s").EvaluateExpression("a + b")
```
and the result will be `33` (not `3`) because fields `a` and `b` of `s` will be
used (not locals `a` and `b`).
This is achieved by replacing of `this` type and object for the expression. This
has some limitations: an expression can be evaluated only for values located in
the debuggee process memory (they must have an address of `eAddressTypeLoad`
type).

This builds on https://reviews.llvm.org/D43884 and https://reviews.llvm.org/D43886 and extends LLDB support of Obj-C exceptions to also look for a "current exception" for a thread in the C++ exception handling runtime metadata (via call to __cxa_current_exception_type). We also construct an actual historical SBThread/ThreadSP that contains frames from the backtrace in the Obj-C exception object.
The high level goal this achieves is that when we're already crashed (because an unhandled exception occurred), we can still access the exception object and retrieve the backtrace from the throw point. In Obj-C, this is particularly useful because a catch+rethrow is very common and in those cases you currently don't have any access to the throw point backtrace.

This patch changes the way the reproducer is initialized. Rather than
making changes at run time we now do everything at initialization time.
To make this happen we had to introduce initializer options and their SB
variant. This allows us to tell the initializer that we're running in
reproducer capture/replay mode.
Because of this change we also had to alter our testing strategy. We
cannot reinitialize LLDB when using the dotest infrastructure. Instead
we use lit and invoke two instances of the driver.
Another consequence is that we can no longer enable capture or replay
through commands. This was bound to go away form the beginning, but I
had something in mind where you could enable/disable specific providers.
However this seems like it adds very little value right now so the
corresponding commands were removed.
Finally this change also means you now have to control this through the
driver, for which I replaced --reproducer with --capture and --replay to
differentiate between the two modes.

Summary:
This patch fixes the next situation. On Windows clang-cl makes no stub before
the main function, so the main function is located exactly on module entry
point. May be it is the same on other platforms. So consider the following
sequence:
- set a breakpoint on main and stop there;
- try to evaluate expression, which requires a code execution on the debuggee
side. Such an execution always returns to the module entry, and the plan waits
for it there;
- the plan understands that it is complete now and removes its breakpoint. But
the breakpoint site is still there, because we also have a breakpoint on
entry;
- StopInfo analyzes a situation. It sees that we have stopped on the breakpoint
site, and it sees that the breakpoint site has owners, and no one logical
breakpoint is internal (because the plan is already completed and it have
removed its breakpoint);
- StopInfo thinks that it's a user breakpoint and skips it to avoid recursive
computations;
- the program continues.
So in this situation the program continues without a stop right after
the expression evaluation. To avoid this an additional check that
the plan was completed was added.

When I landed the initial reproducer framework I knew there were some
things that needed improvement. Rather than bundling it with a patch
that adds more functionality I split it off into this patch. I also
think the API is stable enough to add unit testing, which is included in
this patch as well.
Other improvements include:
- Refactor how we initialize the loader and generator.
- Improve naming consistency: capture and replay seems the least ambiguous.
- Index providers by name and make sure there's only one of each.
- Add convenience methods for creating and accessing providers.

When debugging read-only memory we cannot use software breakpoint. We
already have support for hardware breakpoints and users can specify them
with `-H`. However, there's no option to force LLDB to use hardware
breakpoints internally, for example while stepping.
This patch adds a setting target.require-hardware-breakpoint that forces
LLDB to always use hardware breakpoints. Because hardware breakpoints
are a limited resource and can fail to resolve, this patch also extends
error handling in thread plans, where breakpoints are used for stepping.

This patch teaches lldb to detect when there are missing frames in a
backtrace due to a sequence of tail calls, and to fill in the backtrace
with artificial tail call frames when this happens. This is only done
when the execution history can be determined from the call graph and
from the return PC addresses of calls on the stack. Ambiguous sequences
of tail calls (e.g anything involving tail calls and recursion) are
detected and ignored.

Summary:
This patch adds a framework for adding descriptions to the command completions we provide.
It also adds descriptions for completed top-level commands so that we can test this code.
Completions are in general supposed to be displayed alongside the completion itself. The descriptions
can be used to provide additional information about the completion to the user. Examples for descriptions
are function signatures when completing function calls in the expression command or the binary name
when providing completion for a symbol.
There is still some boilerplate code from the old completion API left in LLDB (mostly because the respective
APIs are reused for non-completion related purposes, so the CompletionRequest doesn't make sense to be
used), so that's why I still had to change some function signatures. Also, as the old API only passes around a
list of matches, and the descriptions are for these functions just another list, I had to add some code that
essentially just ensures that both lists are always the same side (e.g. all the manual calls to
`descriptions->AddString(X)` below a `matches->AddString(Y)` call).
The initial command descriptions that come with this patch are just reusing the existing
short help that is already added in LLDB.
An example completion with descriptions looks like this:
```
(lldb) pl
Available completions:
platform -- Commands to manage and create platforms.
plugin -- Commands for managing LLDB plugins.
