scripted processes.

The newly added
test/API/functionalities/scripted_process_empty_memory_region/dummy_scripted_process.py
imports
examples/python/templates/scripted_process.py
which only has register definitions for x86_64 and arm64.
Only run this test on those two architectures for now.
If your arguments or option values are of a type that naturally uses one
of our common completion mechanisms, you will get completion for free.
But if you have your own custom values or if you want to do fancy things
like have `break set -s foo.dylib -n ba<TAB>` only complete on symbols
in foo.dylib, you can use this new mechanism to achieve that.
Following a feedback request in #97262, I took out the scripted thread
plan python base class from it and make a separate PR for it.
This patch adds the scripted thread plan base python class to the lldb
python module as well as the lldb documentation website.

This patch adds the documentation for a subset of scripting extensions
such as scripted process, scripted thread, operating system threads &
scritped thread plans to the lldb website.

Python3.9 does not allow you to put a reference to a class staticmethod
in a table and call it from there. Python3.10 and following do allow
this, but we still support 3.9. staticmethod was slightly cleaner,
but this will do.
This allows you to specify options and arguments and their definitions
and then have lldb handle the completions, help, etc. in the same way
that lldb does for its parsed commands internally.
This feature has some design considerations as well as the code, so I've
also set up an RFC, but I did this one first and will put the RFC
address in here once I've pushed it...
Note, the lldb "ParsedCommand interface" doesn't actually do all the
work that it should. For instance, saying the type of an option that has
a completer doesn't automatically hook up the completer, and ditto for
argument values. We also do almost no work to verify that the arguments
match their definition, or do auto-completion for them. This patch
allows you to make a command that's bug-for-bug compatible with built-in
ones, but I didn't want to stall it on getting the auto-command checking
to work all the way correctly.
As an overall design note, my primary goal here was to make an interface
that worked well in the script language. For that I needed, for
instance, to have a property-based way to get all the option values that
were specified. It was much more convenient to do that by making a
fairly bare-bones C interface to define the options and arguments of a
command, and set their values, and then wrap that in a Python class
(installed along with the other bits of the lldb python module) which
you can then derive from to make your new command. This approach will
also make it easier to experiment.
See the file test_commands.py in the test case for examples of how this
works.
This patch introduces an `OperatingSystem` base implementation in the
`lldb` python module to make it easier for lldb users to write their own
implementation.
The `OperatingSystem` base implementation is derived itself from the
`ScriptedThread` base implementation since they share some common grounds.
To achieve that, this patch makes changes to the `ScriptedThread`
initializer since it gets called by the `OperatingSystem` initializer.
I also took the opportunity to document the `OperatingSystem` base
class and methods.

This patch moves the template files for the various scripting
affordances to a separate directory.
This is a preparatory work for upcoming improvements and consolidations
to other scripting affordances.
