At the moment nearly every test calls something similar to
`self.dbg.CreateTarget(self.getBuildArtifact("a.out"))` and them sometimes
checks if the created target is actually valid with something like
`self.assertTrue(target.IsValid(), "some useless text")`.
Beside being really verbose the error messages generated by this pattern are
always just indicating that the target failed to be created but now why.
This patch introduces a helper function `createTestTarget` to our Test class
that creates the target with the much more verbose `CreateTarget` overload that
gives us back an SBError (with a fancy error). If the target couldn't be created
the function prints out the SBError that LLDB returned and asserts for us. It
also defaults to the "a.out" build artifact path that nearly all tests are using
to avoid to hardcode "a.out" in every test.
I converted a bunch of tests to the new function but I'll do the rest of the
test suite as follow ups.

The new FreeBSDRemote plugin has reached feature parity on i386
and amd64 targets. Use it by default on these architectures, while
allowing the use of the legacy plugin via FREEBSD_LEGACY_PLUGIN envvar.
Revisit the method of switching plugins. Apparently, the return value
of PlatformFreeBSD::CanDebugProcess() is what really decides whether
the legacy or the new plugin is used.
Update the test status. Reenable the tests that were previously
disabled on FreeBSD and do not cause hangs or are irrelevant to FreeBSD.
Mark all tests that fail reliably as expectedFailure. For now, tests
that are flaky (i.e. produce unstable results) are left enabled
and cause unpredictable test failures.

The reproducer don't model timeouts so tests that rely on them end up
with unexpected packets during replay. Skip them until we can handle
this scenario.
Summary: Moves lldbsuite tests to lldb/test/API.
This is a largely mechanical change, moved with the following steps:
```
rm lldb/test/API/testcases
mkdir -p lldb/test/API/{test_runner/test,tools/lldb-{server,vscode}}
mv lldb/packages/Python/lldbsuite/test/test_runner/test lldb/test/API/test_runner
for d in $(find lldb/packages/Python/lldbsuite/test/* -maxdepth 0 -type d | egrep -v "make|plugins|test_runner|tools"); do mv $d lldb/test/API; done
for d in $(find lldb/packages/Python/lldbsuite/test/tools/lldb-vscode -maxdepth 1 -mindepth 1 | grep -v ".py"); do mv $d lldb/test/API/tools/lldb-vscode; done
for d in $(find lldb/packages/Python/lldbsuite/test/tools/lldb-server -maxdepth 1 -mindepth 1 | egrep -v "gdbremote_testcase.py|lldbgdbserverutils.py|socket_packet_pump.py"); do mv $d lldb/test/API/tools/lldb-server; done
```
lldb/packages/Python/lldbsuite/__init__.py and lldb/test/API/lit.cfg.py were also updated with the new directory structure.
