The idea behind the address-expression is that it handles all the common
expressions that produce addresses. It handles actual valid expressions
that return a scalar, and it handles useful cases that the various
source languages don't support. At present, the fallback handles:
<symbol_name>{+-}<offset>
which isn't valid C but is very handy.
This patch adds handling of:
$<reg_name>
and
$<reg_name>{+-}<offset>
That's kind of pointless in C because the C expression parser handles
that expression already. But some languages don't have a straightforward
way to represent register values like this (swift) so having this
fallback is quite a quality of life improvement.
I added a test which tests that I didn't mess up either of these
fallbacks, though it doesn't test the actually handling of registers
that I added, since the expression parser for C succeeds in that case
and returns before this code gets run.
I will add a test on the swift fork for that checks that this works the
same way for a swift frame after this check.
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.

Eliminate boilerplate of having each test manually assign to `mydir` by calling
`compute_mydir` in lldbtest.py.

Summary:
This replaces the current use of LLDB's own `StringConvert` with LLVM's
`to_integer` which has a less error-prone API and doesn't use special 'error
values' to designate parsing problems.
Where needed I also added missing error handling code that prints a parsing
error instead of continuing with the error value returned from `StringConvert`
(which either gave a cryptic error message or just took the error value
performed an incorrect action with it. For example, `frame recognizer delete -1`
just deleted the frame recognizer at index 0).
