This is an ongoing series of commits that are reformatting our Python
code. Reformatting is done with `black` (23.1.0).
If you end up having problems merging this commit because you have made
changes to a python file, the best way to handle that is to run `git
checkout --ours <yourfile>` and then reformat it with black.

Symbols that have the section index of SHN_ABS were previously creating extra top level sections that contained the value of the symbol as if the symbol's value was an address. As far as I can tell, these symbol's values are not addresses, even if they do have a size. To make matters worse, adding these extra sections can stop address lookups from succeeding if the symbol's value + size overlaps with an existing section as these sections get mapped into memory when the image is loaded by the dynamic loader. This can cause stack frames to appear empty as the address lookup fails completely.
This patch:
- doesn't create a section for any SHN_ABS symbols
- makes symbols that are absolute have values that are not addresses
- add accessors to SBSymbol to get the value and size of a symbol as raw integers. Prevoiusly there was no way to access a symbol's value from a SBSymbol because the only accessors were:
SBAddress SBSymbol::GetStartAddress();
SBAddress SBSymbol::GetEndAddress();
and these accessors would return an invalid SBAddress if the symbol's value wasn't an address
- Adds a test to ensure no ".absolute.<symbol-name>" sections are created
- Adds a test to test the new SBSymbol APIs
