As suggested by Greg in https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/66534,
I'm adding a setting at the Target level that controls whether to show
leading zeroes in hex ValueObject values.
This has the benefit of reducing the amount of characters displayed in
certain interfaces, like VSCode.
This patch simplifies the color handling logic in Editline and
IOHandlerEditline:
- Remove the m_color_prompts property from Editline and use the prompt
ANSI prefix and suffix as the single source of truth. This avoids
having to redraw the prompt unnecessarily, for example when colors
are enabled but the prompt prefix and suffix are empty.
- Rename m_color_prompts to just m_color in IOHandlerEditline and use
it to ensure consistency between colored prompts and colored
auto-suggestions. Some IOHandler explicitly turn off colors (such as
IOHandlerConfirm) and it doesn't really make sense to have one or the
other.
Users often want to change the look of their prompt and currently the
only way to do that is by using ANSI escape codes in the prompt itself.
This is not only tedious, it also results in extra whitespace because
our Editline wrapper, when computing the cursor column, doesn't ignore
the invisible escape codes.
We already have various *-ansi-{prefix,suffix} settings that allow the
users to customize the color of auto-suggestions and progress events,
using mnemonics like ${ansi.fg.yellow}. This patch brings the same
mechanism to the prompt.

This method was working as expected if LLDB_ENABLE_LIBEDIT is false, however, if it was true, then the variable m_current_lines_ptr was always pointing to an empty list, because Editline only updates its contents once the full input has been completed (see https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/blob/main/lldb/source/Host/common/Editline.cpp#L1576).
A simple fix is to invoke Editline::GetInputAsStringList() from GetCurrentLines(), which is already used in many places as the common way to get the full input list.

The REPL has a default tab size of 4 spaces, which seems to be a bit too much. The reason is that the REPL transforms tabs into spaces, and therefore whenever you want to manually deindent, you need to delete at least 4 characters. On the other hand, using 2 as default results in less keystrokes, without hurting readability.
Apple maintains a downstream fork of lldb in order to support swift
debugging. Much of that support is isolated to its own plugins, but some
of it is exposed in more generic code. I would like to take some of
the swift support we have downstream and move it upstream to llvm.org in
an effort to 1) reduce downstream maintenance burden, and 2) work
towards solidifying the process of adding new language support to lldb.

DynamicLoader::LoadBinaryWithUUIDAndAddress can create a Module based
on the binary image in memory, which in some cases contains symbol
names and can be genuinely useful. If we don't have a filename, it
creates a name in the form `memory-image-0x...` with the header address.
In practice, this is most useful with Darwin userland corefiles
where the binary was stored in the corefile in whole, and we can't
find a binary with the matching UUID. Using the binary out of
the corefile memory in this case works well.
But in other cases, akin to firmware debugging, we merely end up
with an oddly named binary image and no symbols.
Add a flag to control whether we will create these memory images
and add them to the Target or not; only set it to true when working
with a userland Mach-O image with the "all image infos" LC_NOTE for
a userland corefile.

Recently we've observed lldb crashes caused by missing object file linked to a thin archive (.a) files. The crash is due to a missing NULL check in the code when looking for child object file referred by the thin archive. Malformed archive file should not crash LLDB. Instead, it should report the error and continue.

`Instruction::TestEmulation` takes a `Stream *` and checks it for validity.
However, this is unnecessary as we can always ensure that we never pass
`nullptr` for the `Stream` argument. The only use of
`Instruction::TestEmulation` currently is `SBInstruction::TestEmulation`
which gets the `Stream` from an `SBStream`, and `SBStream::ref` can

We recently saw an uptick in internal reports complaining that LLDB is
slow when sources on network file systems are inaccessible. I looked at
the SourceManger and its cache and I think there’s some room for
improvement in terms of reducing file system accesses:
1. We always resolve the path.
2. We always check the timestamp.
3. We always recheck the file system for negative cache hits.
D153726 fixes (1) but (2) and (3) are necessary because of the cache’s
current design. Source files are cached at the debugger level which
means that the source file cache can span multiple targets and
processes. It wouldn't be correct to not reload a modified or new file
from disk.
We can however significantly reduce the number of file system accesses
by using a two level cache design: one cache at the debugger level and
one at the process level:
- The cache at the debugger level works the way it does today. There is
no negative cache: if we can't find the file on disk, we'll try again
next time the cache is queried. If a cached file's timestamp changes
or if its path remapping changes, the cached file is evicted and we
reload it from disk.
- The cache at the process level is design to avoid accessing the file
system. It doesn't check the file's modification time. It caches
negative results, so if a file didn't exist, it doesn't try to reread
it from disk. Checking if the path remapping changed is cheap
(doesn't involve checking the file system) and is the only way for a
file to get evicted from the process cache.
The result of this patch is that LLDB will not show you new content if a
file is modified or created while a process is running. I would argue
that this is what most people would expect, but it is a change from how
LLDB behaves today.
For an average stop, we query the source cache 4 times. With the current
implementation, that's 4 stats to get the modification time, If the file
doesn't exist on disk, that's an additional 4 stats. Before D153726, if
the path starts with a ~ there are another additional 4 calls to
realpath. When debugging sources on a slow (network) file system, this
quickly adds up.
In addition to the two level caching, this patch also adds a source
logging channel and synchronization to the source file cache. The
logging was helpful during development and hopefully will help us triage
issues in the future. The synchronization isn't a new requirement: as
the cache is shared across targets, there is no guarantees that it can't
be accessed concurrently. The patch also fixes a bug where we would only
set the source remapping ID if the un-remapped file didn't exist, which
led to the file getting evicted from the cache on every access.

Currently, source files are cached by their resolved path. This means
that before we can query the cache, we potentially have to resolve the

by caching both the resolved and unresolved path. We now only resolve
the path once when we create and cache a new file.
