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.
Adding command interpreter statistics into "statistics dump" command so
that we can track the command usage frequency for telemetry purpose.
This is useful to answer questions like what is the most frequently used
lldb commands across all our users.

This patch replaces uses of StringRef::{starts,ends}with with
StringRef::{starts,ends}_with for consistency with
std::{string,string_view}::{starts,ends}_with in C++20.
I'm planning to deprecate and eventually remove
StringRef::{starts,ends}with.
[lldb] Part 2 of 2 - Refactor `CommandObject::DoExecute(...)` to return
`void` instead of ~~`bool`~~
Justifications:
- The code doesn't ultimately apply the `true`/`false` return values.
- The methods already pass around a `CommandReturnObject`, typically
with a `result` parameter.
- Each command return object already contains:
- A more precise status
- The error code(s) that apply to that status
Part 1 refactors the `CommandObject::Execute(...)` method.
- See

This patch should allow the user to set specific auto-completion type
for their custom commands.
To do so, we had to hoist the `CompletionType` enum so the user can
access it and add a new completion type flag to the CommandScriptAdd
Command Object.
So now, the user can specify which completion type will be used with
their custom command, when they register it.
This also makes the `crashlog` custom commands use disk-file completion
type, to browse through the user file system and load the report.

We're suggesting people use the form of the command that takes an exe_ctx - it
is both more convenient and more correct - since you should not be using
GetSelected{Target, Process, etc.} in commands.
This didn't work previously because we had to check whether the incoming
command was an alias command, but if it wasn't we still used the result
of that lookup - which was by the command's node name. That fails for
non-top-level commands. In this case, the resolution is pretty simple since
we already have the node's CommandObject, so all we needed to do was turn
it into a shared pointer, for which I added enable_shared_from_this to the
CommandObject.

Refactor the command option enum values and the command argument table
to connect the two. This has two benefits:
- We guarantee that two options that use the same argument type have
the same accepted values.
- We can print the enum values and their description in the help
output. (D129707)

This is currently being done in an ad hoc way, and so for some
commands it isn't being checked. We have the info to make this check,
since commands are supposed to add their arguments to the m_arguments
field of the CommandObject. This change uses that info to check whether
the command received arguments in error.
A handful of commands weren't defining their argument types, I also had
to fix them. And a bunch of commands were checking for arguments by
hand, so I removed those checks in favor of the CommandObject one. That
also meant I had to change some tests that were checking for the ad hoc
error outputs.

Protecting against accidental overwriting of commands is good, but
having to pass a flag to overwrite the command when developing your
commands is pretty annoying. This adds a setting to defeat the protection
so you can do this once at the start of your session and not have to
worry about it again.

This way if you have a long stack, you can issue "thread backtrace --count 10"
and then subsequent <Return>-s will page you through the stack.
This took a little more effort than just adding the repeat command, since
the GetRepeatCommand API was returning a "const char *". That meant the command
had to keep the repeat string alive, which is inconvenient. The original
API returned either a nullptr, or a const char *, so I changed the private API to
return an llvm::Optional<std::string>. Most of the patch is propagating that change.
Also, there was a little thinko in fetching the repeat command. We don't
fetch repeat commands for commands that aren't being added to history, which
is in general reasonable. And we don't add repeat commands to the history -
also reasonable. But we do want the repeat command to be able to generate
the NEXT repeat command. So I adjusted the logic in HandleCommand to work
that way.

Allow users to create aliases for aliases to raw input commands. That probably
sounds convoluted, so here's an example:
```
command alias some-setup env SOMEVAR=SOMEVALUE
```
This an alias based on `env`, which itself is an alias for `_regex-env`.
`_regex-env` is a `command regex` command, which takes raw input.
The above `some-setup` alias fails with:
```
error: Unable to create requested alias.
```
This change allows such aliases to be created. lldb already supports aliases to
aliases for parsed commands.

Add the ability to silence command script import. The motivation for
this change is being able to add command script import -s
lldb.macosx.crashlog to your ~/.lldbinit without it printing the
following message at the beginning of every debug session.
"malloc_info", "ptr_refs", "cstr_refs", "find_variable", and
"objc_refs" commands have been installed, use the "--help" options on
these commands for detailed help.
In addition to forwarding the silent option to LoadScriptingModule, this
also changes ScriptInterpreterPythonImpl::ExecuteOneLineWithReturn and
ScriptInterpreterPythonImpl::ExecuteMultipleLines to honor the enable IO
option in ExecuteScriptOptions, which until now was ignored.
Note that IO is only enabled (or disabled) at the start of a session,
and for this particular use case, that's done when taking the Python
lock in LoadScriptingModule, which means that the changes to these two
functions are not strictly necessary, but (IMO) desirable nonetheless.

GetCommandSPExact is called exaclty once with include_aliases set to
true, so make it a default argument. Use early returns to simplify the
implementation.
This reverts commit a01b26fb51c710a3a8ef88cc83b0701461f5b9ab, because it
breaks the "finish" command in some way -- the command does not
terminate after it steps out, but continues running the target. The
exact blast radius is not clear, but it at least affects the usage of
the "finish" command in TestGuiBasicDebug.py. The error is *not*
gui-related, as the same issue can be reproduced by running the same
steps outside of the gui.
There is some kind of a race going on, as the test fails only 20% of the
time on the buildbot.
Currently, the interpreter's context is not updated until a command is executed.
This has resulted in the behavior of SB-interface functions and some commands
depends on previous user actions. The interpreter's context can stay uninitialized,
point to a currently selected target, or point to one of previously selected targets.
This patch removes any usages of CommandInterpreter::UpdateExecutionContext.
CommandInterpreter::HandleCommand* functions still may override context temporarily,
but now they always restore it before exiting. CommandInterpreter saves overriden
contexts to the stack, that makes nesting commands possible.
Added test reproduces one of the issues. Without this fix, the last assertion fails
because interpreter's execution context is empty until running "target list", so,
the value of the global property was updated instead of process's local instance.

Make it possible to use a relative path in command script import to the
location of the file being sourced. This allows the user to put Python
scripts next to LLDB command files and importing them without having to
specify an absolute path.
To enable this behavior pass `-c` to `command script import`. The
argument can only be used when sourcing the command from a file.

This patch moves the `history` subcommand from the `command` to `session`
command. I think it makes more sense to have it there because as the `command`
usage suggests, it should be used to manage custom LLDB commands.
However, `history` is essentially tied to a debugging session and holds
all the commands (not specifically custom ones).
This also makes it more discoverable by adding an alias for it (mimicking
the shell builtin).

In the similar review D81128, Jonas pointed out some style errors that also
apply to D80775 (which is already committed). Also applying the changes
suggested there to this code.
This is how it should've been and brings it more in line with
std::string_view. There should be no functional change here.
This is mostly mechanical from a custom clang-tidy check, with a lot of
manual fixups. It uncovers a lot of minor inefficiencies.
This doesn't actually modify StringRef yet, I'll do that in a follow-up.
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).

The 'asynchronously' argument to both GetLLDBCommandsFromIOHandler and
GetPythonCommandsFromIOHandler is true for all call sites. This commit
simplifies the API by dropping it and giving the baton a default

The `-r` option for `command script import` is there for legacy

patch removes the flag and any code that relies on it being false.
