This fixes a few bugs, effectively through a fallback to `p` when `po` fails.
The motivating bug this fixes is when an error within the compiler causes `po` to fail.
Previously when that happened, only its value (typically an object's address) was
printed – and problematically, no compiler diagnostics were shown. With this change,
compiler diagnostics are shown, _and_ the object is fully printed (ie `p`).
Another bug this fixes is when `po` is used on a type that doesn't provide an object
description (such as a struct). Again, the normal `ValueObject` printing is used.
Additionally, this also improves how lldb handles an object description method that
fails in some way. Now an error will be shown (it wasn't before), and the value will be
printed normally.
When printing an ObjC object, which is a pointer, lldb has handled it
the same way it treats any other pointer – printing only class name and
pointer address. The object is not expanded, its children are not shown.
This change updates `dwim-print` to print objc pointers by expanding (ie
dereferencing), with the assumption that it's what the user wants.
Note that this is currently possible using the `--ptr-depth`/`-P` flag.
With this change, when `dwim-print` prints root level objc objects, it's
the same effect as using `--ptr-depth 1`.
ValueObject is part of lldbCore for historical reasons, but conceptually
it deserves to be its own library. This does introduce a (link-time) circular
dependency between lldbCore and lldbValueObject, which is unfortunate
but probably unavoidable because so many things in LLDB rely on
ValueObject. We already have cycles and these libraries are never built
as dylibs so while this doesn't improve the situation, it also doesn't
make things worse.
The header includes were updated with the following command:
```
find . -type f -exec sed -i.bak "s%include \"lldb/Core/ValueObject%include \"lldb/ValueObject/ValueObject%" '{}' \;
```
This change uses the information from target.xml sent by
the GDB stub to produce C types that we can use to print
register fields.
lldb-server *does not* produce this information yet. This will
only work with GDB stubs that do. gdbserver or qemu
are 2 I know of. Testing is added that uses a mocked lldb-server.
```
(lldb) register read cpsr x0 fpcr fpsr x1
cpsr = 0x60001000
= (N = 0, Z = 1, C = 1, V = 0, TCO = 0, DIT = 0, UAO = 0, PAN = 0, SS = 0, IL = 0, SSBS = 1, BTYPE = 0, D = 0, A = 0, I = 0, F = 0, nRW = 0, EL = 0, SP = 0)
```
Only "register read" will display fields, and only when
we are not printing a register block.
For example, cpsr is a 32 bit register. Using the target's scratch type
system we construct a type:
```
struct __attribute__((__packed__)) cpsr {
uint32_t N : 1;
uint32_t Z : 1;
...
uint32_t EL : 2;
uint32_t SP : 1;
};
```
If this register had unallocated bits in it, those would
have been filled in by RegisterFlags as anonymous fields.
A new option "SetChildPrintingDecider" is added so we
can disable printing those.
Important things about this type:
* It is packed so that sizeof(struct cpsr) == sizeof(the real register).
(this will hold for all flags types we create)
* Each field has the same storage type, which is the same as the type
of the raw register value. This prevents fields being spilt over
into more storage units, as is allowed by most ABIs.
* Each bitfield size matches that of its register field.
* The most significant field is first.
The last point is required because the most significant bit (MSB)
being on the left/top of a print out matches what you'd expect to
see in an architecture manual. In addition, having lldb print a
different field order on big/little endian hosts is not acceptable.
As a consequence, if the target is little endian we have to
reverse the order of the fields in the value. The value of each field
remains the same. For example 0b01 doesn't become 0b10, it just shifts
up or down.
This is needed because clang's type system assumes that for a struct
like the one above, the least significant bit (LSB) will be first
for a little endian target. We need the MSB to be first.
Finally, if lldb's host is a different endian to the target we have
to byte swap the host endian value to match the endian of the target's
typesystem.
| Host Endian | Target Endian | Field Order Swap | Byte Order Swap |
|-------------|---------------|------------------|-----------------|
| Little | Little | Yes | No |
| Big | Little | Yes | Yes |
| Little | Big | No | Yes |
| Big | Big | No | No |
Testing was done as follows:
* Little -> Little
* LE AArch64 native debug.
* Big -> Little
* s390x lldb running under QEMU, connected to LE AArch64 target.
* Little -> Big
* LE AArch64 lldb connected to QEMU's GDB stub, which is running
an s390x program.
* Big -> Big
* s390x lldb running under QEMU, connected to another QEMU's GDB
stub, which is running an s390x program.
As we are not allowed to link core code to plugins directly,
I have added a new plugin RegisterTypeBuilder. There is one implementation
of this, RegisterTypeBuilderClang, which uses TypeSystemClang to build
the CompilerType from the register fields.

When printing a value, allow the root value's name to be elided, without omiting the
names of child values.
At the API level, this adds `SetHideRootName()`, which joins the existing
`SetHideName()` function.
This functionality is used by `dwim-print` and `expression`.

This adds a setting (`target.max-children-depth`) that will provide a default value for the `--depth` flag used by `expression` and `frame variable`.
The new setting uses the same default that's currently fixed in source: `UINT32_MAX`.
This provides two purposes:
1. Allowing downstream forks to provide a customized default.
2. Allowing users to set their own default.
Following `target.max-children-count`, a warning is emitted when the max depth is reached. The warning lets users know which flags or settings they can customize. This warning is shown only when the limit is the default value.

Summary:
A *.cpp file header in LLDB (and in LLDB) should like this:
```
//===-- TestUtilities.cpp -------------------------------------------------===//
```
However in LLDB most of our source files have arbitrary changes to this format and
these changes are spreading through LLDB as folks usually just use the existing
source files as templates for their new files (most notably the unnecessary
editor language indicator `-*- C++ -*-` is spreading and in every review
someone is pointing out that this is wrong, resulting in people pointing out that this
is done in the same way in other files).
This patch removes most of these inconsistencies including the editor language indicators,
all the different missing/additional '-' characters, files that center the file name, missing
trailing `===//` (mostly caused by clang-format breaking the line).

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.

This patch removes the comments grouping header includes. They were

*** to conform to clang-format’s LLVM style. This kind of mass change has
*** two obvious implications:
Firstly, merging this particular commit into a downstream fork may be a huge
effort. Alternatively, it may be worth merging all changes up to this commit,
performing the same reformatting operation locally, and then discarding the
merge for this particular commit. The commands used to accomplish this
reformatting were as follows (with current working directory as the root of
the repository):
find . \( -iname "*.c" -or -iname "*.cpp" -or -iname "*.h" -or -iname "*.mm" \) -exec clang-format -i {} +
find . -iname "*.py" -exec autopep8 --in-place --aggressive --aggressive {} + ;
The version of clang-format used was 3.9.0, and autopep8 was 1.2.4.
Secondly, “blame” style tools will generally point to this commit instead of
a meaningful prior commit. There are alternatives available that will attempt
to look through this change and find the appropriate prior commit. YMMV.

This option evaluates an expression and, if the result is of pointer type, treats it as if it was an array of that many elements and displays such elements
This has a couple subtle points but is mostly as straightforward as it sounds
Add a parray N <expr> alias for this new mode
Also, extend the --object-description mode to do the moral equivalent of the above but display each element in --object-description mode
Add a poarray N <expr> alias for this
