Currently when jitting expressions, LLDB scans the IR instructions of
the `$__lldb_expr` and will insert a call to a utility function for each
load/store instruction. The purpose of the utility funciton is to
dereference the load/store operand. If that operand was an invalid
pointer the utility function would trap and LLDB asks the IR checker
whether it was responsible for the trap, in which case it prints out an
error message saying the expression dereferenced an invalid pointer.
This is a lot of setup for not much gain. In fact, creating/running this
utility expression shows up as ~2% of the expression evaluation time
(though we cache them for subsequent expressions). And the error message
we get out of it is arguably less useful than if we hadn't instrumented
the IR. It was also untested.
Before:
```
(lldb) expr int a = *returns_invalid_ptr()
error: Execution was interrupted, reason: Attempted to dereference an invalid pointer..
The process has been returned to the state before expression evaluation.
```
After:
```
(lldb) expr int a = *returns_invalid_ptr()
error: Expression execution was interrupted: EXC_BAD_ACCESS (code=1, address=0x5).
The process has been returned to the state before expression evaluation.
```
This patch removes this IR checker.
As specified in the docs,
1) raw_string_ostream is always unbuffered and
2) the underlying buffer may be used directly
( 65b13610a5226b84889b923bae884ba395ad084d for further reference )
* Don't call raw_string_ostream::flush(), which is essentially a no-op.
* Avoid unneeded calls to raw_string_ostream::str(), to avoid excess
indirection.
The constructor initializes `*this` with a copy of `M->getDataLayout()`,
which can just be spelled as `DataLayout DL = M->getDataLayout()`. In
all places where the constructor is used, Module outlives DataLayout, so
store a reference to it instead of cloning.

I came accross this, because a lot of regression tests were saying:
```
(lldb) p argc
error: expression failed to parse:
error: couldn't install checkers, unknown error
```
With this change, error messages provide more detail:
```
(lldb) p argc
error: expression failed to parse:
error: couldn't install checkers:
error: Couldn't lookup symbols:
__objc_load
```
I didn't find a case where `Diagnostics()` is not empty. Also it looks like this isn't covered in any test (yet).

Applied modernize-use-default-member-init clang-tidy check over LLDB.
It appears in many files we had already switched to in class member init but
never updated the constructors to reflect that. This check is already present in
the lldb/.clang-tidy config.

Most of our code was including Log.h even though that is not where the
"lldb" log channel is defined (Log.h defines the generic logging
infrastructure). This worked because Log.h included Logging.h, even
though it should.
After the recent refactor, it became impossible the two files include
each other in this direction (the opposite inclusion is needed), so this
patch removes the workaround that was put in place and cleans up all
files to include the right thing. It also renames the file to LLDBLog to
better reflect its purpose.
This patch redesigns the Target::GetUtilityFunctionForLanguage API:
- Use a unique_ptr instead of a raw pointer for the return type.
- Wrap the result in an llvm::Expected instead of using a Status object as an I/O parameter.
- Combine the action of "getting" and "installing" the UtilityFunction as they always get called together.
- Pass std::strings instead of const char* and std::move them where appropriate.
There's more room for improvement but I think this tackles the most
prevalent issues with the current API.

This method has been commented as deprecated for a while. Remove
it and replace all uses with the equivalent getCalledOperand().
I also made a few cleanups in here. For example, to removes use
of getElementType on a pointer when we could just use getFunctionType
from the call.

The GetOffset documentation was copied from the function above
so I completely deleted that one. The rest was just outdated
documentation that didn't keep up with renamed or changed
function parameters/return types.
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).

This patch replaces explicit calls to log::Printf with the new LLDB_LOGF
macro. The macro is similar to LLDB_LOG but supports printf-style format
strings, instead of formatv-style format strings.
So instead of writing:
if (log)
log->Printf("%s\n", str);
You'd write:
LLDB_LOG(log, "%s\n", str);
This change was done mechanically with the command below. I replaced the
spurious if-checks with vim, since I know how to do multi-line
replacements with it.
find . -type f -name '*.cpp' -exec \
sed -i '' -E 's/log->Printf\(/LLDB_LOGF\(log, /g' "{}" +

Summary:
IRDynamicChecks in its current form is specific to Clang since it deals
with the C language family. It is possible that we may want to
instrument code generated for other languages, but we can factor in a
more general mechanism to do so at a later time.
This decouples ObCLanguageRuntime from Expression!
