[lldb][Format] Reject recursive format entities (#174750)
Depends on:
* https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/174618

If a format entity calls back into `Format` and passes it a format
entity type that we're already in the process of parsing, we are likely
going to run into infinite recursion and blow the stack. I think this is
only an issue when a format entity calls Format on a format string
provided by the user (otherwise we're in control of the recursion). An
example of this can be seen in the test-case adjusted by this patch.

This seems to be causing actual crashes in the field, so this patch adds
basic tracking to `Formatter::Format` that checks whether we're
recursively parsing the same entity. This may very well be intended by
some entities (e.g., `Root` and `Scope`), so there is an escape hatch
for those. There's also a special case where `Variable` causes a
recursive format (which I pointed out in a source comment).

We could narrow the scope of what kind of recursion is allowed by adding
a `UserProvidedFormatChild` (or similar) flag to `Entry`, and only
disallow recursing on those kinds of entries. For now I just use an
exemption list in `IsInvalidRecursiveFormat`.

Adding a unit-test for this is unfortunately tricky because the only
format entity that currently suffers from this is
`${function.name-with-args}`, which requires a language plugin and valid
target. If we really wanted to we could probably mock all of those, but
the shell test provides test coverage for the previously crashing case.

It was always expected to fail and now it sometimes times out instead.

d555b9f9a0 [lldb][CPlusPlus] Add plugin.cplusplus.display.function-name-format setting (#131836)
Adds the new `plugin.cplusplus.display.function-name-format` setting and makes the `${function.name-with-args}` query it for formatting the function name.

One caveat is that the setting can't itself be set to `${function.name-with-args}` because that would cause infinite recursion and blow the stack. I added an XFAILed test-case for it and will address it in a follow-up patch.
