This adds memory tag reading using the new "qMemTags"
packet and ptrace on AArch64 Linux.
This new packet is following the one used by GDB.
(https://sourceware.org/gdb/current/onlinedocs/gdb/General-Query-Packets.html)
On AArch64 Linux we use ptrace's PEEKMTETAGS to read
tags and we assume that lldb has already checked that the
memory region actually has tagging enabled.
We do not assume that lldb has expanded the requested range
to granules and expand it again to be sure.
(although lldb will be sending aligned ranges because it happens
to need them client side anyway)
Also we don't assume untagged addresses. So for AArch64 we'll
remove the top byte before using them. (the top byte includes
MTE and other non address data)
To do the ptrace read NativeProcessLinux will ask the native
register context for a memory tag manager based on the
type in the packet. This also gives you the ptrace numbers you need.
(it's called a register context but it also has non register data,
so it saves adding another per platform sub class)
The only supported platform for this is AArch64 Linux and the only
supported tag type is MTE allocation tags. Anything else will
error.
Ptrace can return a partial result but for lldb-server we will
be treating that as an error. To succeed we need to get all the tags
we expect.
(Note that the protocol leaves room for logical tags to be
read via qMemTags but this is not going to be implemented for lldb
at this time.)

Add a new feature to process save-core on Darwin systems -- for
lldb to create a user process corefile with only the dirty (modified
memory) pages included. All of the binaries that were used in the
corefile are assumed to still exist on the system for the duration
of the use of the corefile. A new --style option to process save-core
is added, so a full corefile can be requested if portability across
systems, or across time, is needed for this corefile.
debugserver can now identify the dirty pages in a memory region
when queried with qMemoryRegionInfo, and the size of vm pages is
given in qHostInfo.
Create a new "all image infos" LC_NOTE for Mach-O which allows us
to describe all of the binaries that were loaded in the process --
load address, UUID, file path, segment load addresses, and optionally
whether code from the binary was executing on any thread. The old
"read dyld_all_image_infos and then the in-memory Mach-O load
commands to get segment load addresses" no longer works when we
only have dirty memory.

The variable.rst documentation says:
```
If it returns a value, and that value is True, LLDB will be allowed to cache the children and the children count it previously obtained, and will not return to the provider class to ask. If nothing, None, or anything other than True is returned, LLDB will discard the cached information and ask. Regardless, whenever necessary LLDB will call update.
```
However, several update methods in gnu_libstdcpp.py were returning True,
which made lldb unaware of any changes in the corresponding objects.
This problem was visible by lldb-vscode in the following way:
- If a breakpoint is hit and there's a vector with the contents {1, 2},
it'll be displayed correctly.
- Then the user steps and the next stop contains the vector modified.
The program changed it to {1, 2, 3}
- frame var then displays {1, 2} incorrectly, due to the caching caused
by the update method
It's worth mentioning that none of libcxx.py'd update methods return True. Same for LibCxxVector.cpp, which returns false.
Added a very simple test that fails without this fix.

Add a NativeDelegate API to pass new processes (forks) to LLGS,
and support detaching them via the 'D' packet. A 'D' packet without
a specific PID detaches all processes, otherwise it detaches either
the specified subprocess or the main process, depending on the passed
PID.

Introduce a NativeProcessProtocol API for indicating support for
protocol extensions and enabling them. LLGS calls
GetSupportedExtensions() method on the process factory to determine
which extensions are supported by the plugin. If the future is both
supported by the plugin and reported as supported by the client, LLGS
enables it and reports to the client as supported by the server.
The extension is enabled on the process instance by calling
SetEnabledExtensions() method. This is done after qSupported exchange
(if the debugger is attached to any process), as well as after launching
or attaching to a new inferior.
The patch adds 'fork' extension corresponding to 'fork-events+'
qSupported feature and 'vfork' extension for 'vfork-events+'. Both
features rely on 'multiprocess+' being supported as well.

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.

In certain occasions times, like when LLDB is initializing and
evaluating the .lldbinit files, it tries to print to stderr and stdout
directly. This confuses the IDE with malformed data, as it talks to
lldb-vscode using stdin and stdout following the JSON RPC protocol. This
ends up terminating the debug session with the user unaware of what's
going on. There might be other situations in which this can happen, and
they will be harder to debug than the .lldbinit case.
After several discussions with @clayborg, @yinghuitan and @aadsm, we
realized that the best course of action is to simply redirect stdout and
stderr to the console, without modifying LLDB itself. This will prove to
be resilient to future bugs or features.
I made the simplest possible redirection logic I could come up with. It
only works for POSIX, and to make it work with Windows should be merely
changing pipe and dup2 for the windows equivalents like _pipe and _dup2.
Sadly I don't have a Windows machine, so I'll do it later once my office
reopens, or maybe someone else can do it.
I'm intentionally not adding a stop-redirecting logic, as I don't see it
useful for the lldb-vscode case (why would we want to do that, really?).
I added a test.
Note: this is a simpler version of D80659. I first tried to implement a
RIIA version of it, but it was problematic to manage the state of the
thread and reverting the redirection came with some non trivial
complexities, like what to do with unflushed data after the debug
session has finished on the IDE's side.
This diff ass postRunCommands, which are the counterpart of the preRunCommands. TThey will be executed right after the target is launched or attached correctly, which means that the targets can assume that the target is running.

This functionality is used exactly once, and it is trivial to implement
it differently (capture into two distinct variables, and compare for
equality afterwards).
These two functions are doing the same thing, only one of them is
sending the packets immediately and the other "queues" them to be sent
later. The first one is better as in case of errors, the backtrace will
point straight to the place that caused them.
Modify the first method to avoid duplication, and ten standardize on it.
The annotation is now (since the introduction of @apple_simulator_test)
redundant, and the test could theoretically run on lldb-server too (if
it supported darwin hosts).
This fixes flakiness in TestVSCode_launch.test_progress_events

This patch fixes an issue, where if the thread has a signal blocked when
we try to inject it into the process (via vCont), then instead of
executing straight away, the injected signal will trigger another stop
when the thread unblocks the signal.
As (linux) threads start their life with SIGUSR1 (among others)
disabled, and only enable it during initialization, injecting the signal
during this window did not behave as expected. The fix is to change the
test to ensure the signal gets injected with the signal unblocked.
The simplest way to do this was to write a dedicated inferior for this
test. I also created a new header to factor out the function retrieving
the (os-specific) thread id.
Add a minimal support for the multiprocess extension in lldb-server.
The server indicates support for it via qSupported, and accepts
thread-ids containing a PID. However, it still does not support
debugging more than one inferior, so any other PID value results
in an error.

LLDB can often appear deadlocked to users that use IDEs when it is indexing DWARF, or parsing symbol tables. These long running operations can make a debug session appear to be doing nothing even though a lot of work is going on inside LLDB. This patch adds a public API to allow clients to listen to debugger events that report progress and will allow UI to create an activity window or display that can show users what is going on and keep them informed of expensive operations that are going on inside LLDB.

The cause is the non-async-signal-safety printf function (et al.). If
the test managed to interrupt the process and inject a signal before the
printf("@started") call returned (but after it has actually written the
output), that string could end up being printed twice (presumably,
because the function did not manage the clear the userspace buffer, and
so the print call in the signal handler would print it once again).
This patch fixes the issue by replacing the printf call in the signal
handler with a sprintf+write combo, which should not suffer from that
problem (though I wouldn't go as far as to call it async signal safe).
The TestGdbRemote_vContThreads.py were introduced to test NetBSD process
plugin's capability of sending per-thread and per-process signals.
However, at some point the tests started failing. From retrospective,
it is possible that they were relying on some bug in the plugin's
original signal handling.
Fix the tests not to expect the process to terminate after receiving
the signals. Instead, scan for output indicating that the signals were
received and match thread IDs in it. Enable 'signal to all threads'
test everywhere as it works fine on Linux. Add a new test for vCont
packet without specific thread IDs. Introduce a helper function
to cover the common part of tests.
While this does not fix all the problems on NetBSD, it enables a subset
of the tests on other systems. I am planning to add more tests
to the group while implementing multiprocess extension for vCont.

Summary:
The request "evaluate" supports a "context" attribute, which is sent by VSCode. The attribute is defined here https://microsoft.github.io/debug-adapter-protocol/specification#Requests_Evaluate
The "clipboard" context is not yet supported by lldb-vscode, so we can forget about it for now. The 'repl' (i.e. Debug Console) and 'watch' (i.e. Watch Expression) contexts must use the expression parser in case the frame's variable path is not enough, as the user expects these expressions to never fail. On the other hand, the 'hover' expression is invoked whenever the user hovers on any keyword on the UI and the user is fine with the expression not being fully resolved, as they know that the 'repl' case is the fallback they can rely on.
Given that the 'hover' expression is invoked many many times without the user noticing it due to it being triggered by the mouse, I'm making it use only the frame's variable path functionality and not the expression parser. This should speed up tremendously the responsiveness of a debug session when the user only sets source breakpoints and inspect local variables, as the entire debug info is not needed to be parsed.
Regarding tests, I've tried to be as comprehensive as possible considering a multi-file project. Fortunately, the results from the "hover" case are enough most of the times.
