Scopes can have an optional hint for how to present this scope in the UI:
https://microsoft.github.io/debug-adapter-protocol/specification#Types_Scope
The IDEs can use the hint to present the data accordingly. For example,
Visual Studio has a separate Registers window, which is populated with the
data from the scope with `presentationHint: "registers"`.

Based on post-commit review discussion on
2bd84938470bf2e337801faafb8a67710f46429d with Richard Smith.
Other uses of forcing HasEmptyPlaceHolder to false seem OK to me -
they're all around pointer/reference types where the pointer/reference
token will appear at the rightmost side of the left side of the type
name, so they make nested types (eg: the "int" in "int *") behave as
though there is a non-empty placeholder (because the "*" is essentially
the placeholder as far as the "int" is concerned).
This was originally committed in 277623f4d5a672d707390e2c3eaf30a9eb4b075c
Reverted in f9ad1d1c775a8e264bebc15d75e0c6e5c20eefc7 due to breakages
outside of clang - lldb seems to have some strange/strong dependence on
"char [N]" versus "char[N]" when printing strings (not due to that name
appearing in DWARF, but probably due to using clang to stringify type
names) that'll need to be addressed, plus a few other odds and ends in
other subprojects (clang-tools-extra, compiler-rt, etc).
VScode now sends a "scopes" DAP request immediately after any expression evaluation.
This scopes request would clear and invalidate any non-scoped expandable variables in g_vsc.variables, causing later "variables" request to return empty result.
The symptom is that any expandable variables in VScode watch window/debug console UI to return empty content.
This diff fixes this issue by only clearing the expandable variables at process continue time. To achieve this, we have to repopulate all scoped variables
during context switch for each "scopes" request without clearing global expandable variables.
So the PR puts the scoped variables into its own locals/globals/registers; and all expandable variables into separate "expandableVariables" list.
Also, instead of using the variable index for "variableReference", it generates a new variableReference id each time as the key of "expandableVariables".
As a further new feature, this PR adds a new "expandablePermanentVariables" which has the lifetime of debug session. Any expandable variables from debug console
are added into this list. This enables users to snapshot expanable old variable in debug console and compare with new variables if desire.

VSCode doesn't render multiple variables with the same name in the variables view. It only renders one of them. This is a situation that happens often when there are shadowed variables.
The nodejs debugger solves this by adding a number suffix to the variable, e.g. "x", "x2", "x3" are the different x variables in nested blocks.
In this patch I'm doing something similar, but the suffix is " @ <file_name:line>), e.g. "x @ main.cpp:17", "x @ main.cpp:21". The fallback would be an address if the source and line information is not present, which should be rare.
This fix is only needed for globals and locals. Children of variables don't suffer of this problem.

Convert `assertTrue(a == b)` to `assertEqual(a, b)` to produce better failure messages.
These were mostly done via regex search & replace, with some manual fixes.

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.
