Raphael Isemann 6a4905ae2d [lldb] Mark expressions that couldn't be parsed or executed as failed expressions
Summary:
LLDB keeps statistics of how many expression evaluations are 'successful' and 'failed'
which are updated after each expression evaluation (assuming statistics are enabled).
From what I understand the idea is that this could be used to define how well LLDB's
expression evaluator is working.

Currently all expressions are considered successful unless the user passes an explicit
positive element counting to the expression command (with the `-Z` flag) and then passes
an expression that successfully evaluates to a type that doesn't support element counting.
Expressions that fail to parse, execute or any other outcome are considered successful
at the moment which means we nearly always have a 100% expression evaluation
success rate.

This patch makes that expressions that fail to parse or execute to count as failed
expressions.

We can't know whether the expression failed because of an user error
of because LLDB couldn't correctly parse/compile it, but I would argue that this is
still an improvement. Assuming that the percentage of valid user expressions stays
mostly constant over time (which seems like a reasonable assumption), then this
way we can still see if we are doing relatively better/worse from release to release.
