the user level. It adds the ability to invent new stepping modes implemented by python classes,
and to view the current thread plan stack and to some extent alter it.
I haven't gotten to documentation or tests yet. But this should not cause any behavior changes
if you don't use it, so its safe to check it in now and work on it incrementally.

For the Objective-C case, we do not have a "function type" notion, so we actually end up wrapping the clang ObjCMethodDecl in the Impl object, and ask function-y questions of it
In general, you can always ask for return type, number of arguments, and type of each argument using the TypeMemberFunction layer - but in the C++ case, you can also acquire a Type object for the function itself, which instead you can't do in the Objective-C case

from Python. If you don't need to refer to the result in another expression, there's no
need to bloat the persistent variable table with them since you already have the result
SBValue to work with.

- Ported the SWIG wrapper shell scripts to Python so that they would work on Windows too along with other platforms
- Updated CMake handling to fix SWIG errors and manage sym-linking on Windows to liblldb.dll
- More build fixes for Windows
The pending issues are that two Python modules, termios and pexpect are not available on Windows.
These are currently required for the Python command interpreter to be used from within LLDB.

This commit allows you to control the signals that lldb will suppress, stop or forward using the Python and C++ APIs.
Change by Russell Harmon.
Xcode build system changes (and any mistakes) by Todd Fiala. Tested on MacOSX 10.9.3 and Xcode 6 beta. (Xcode 5 is hitting the dependency checker crasher on all my systems).

lldb support. I'll be doing more testing & cleanup but I wanted to
get the initial checkin done.
This adds a new SBExpressionOptions::SetLanguage API for selecting a
language of an expression.
I added adds a new SBThread::GetInfoItemByPathString for retriving
information about a thread from that thread's StructuredData.
I added a new StructuredData class for representing
key-value/array/dictionary information (e.g. JSON formatted data).
Helper functions to read JSON and create a StructuredData object,
and to print a StructuredData object in JSON format are included.
A few Cocoa / Cocoa Touch data formatters were updated by Enrico
to track changes in iOS 8 / Yosemite.
Before we query a thread's extended information, the system runtime may
provide hints to the remote debug stub that it will use to retrieve values
out of runtime structures. I added a new SystemRuntime method
AddThreadExtendedInfoPacketHints which allows the SystemRuntime to add
key-value type data to the initial request that we send to the remote stub.
The thread-format formatter string can now retrieve values out of a thread's
extended info structured data. The default thread-format string picks up
two of these - thread.info.activity.name and thread.info.trace_messages.
I added a new "jThreadExtendedInfo" packet in debugserver; I will
add documentation to the lldb-gdb-remote.txt doc soon. It accepts
JSON formatted arguments (most importantly, "thread":threadnum) and
it returns a variety of information regarding the thread to lldb
in JSON format. This JSON return is scanned into a StructuredData
object that is associated with the thread; UI layers can query the
thread's StructuredData to see if key-values are present, and if
so, show them to the user. These key-values are likely to be
specific to different targets with some commonality among many
targets. For instance, many targets will be able to advertise the
pthread_t value for a thread.
I added an initial rough cut of "thread info" command which will print
the information about a thread from the jThreadExtendedInfo result.
I need to do more work to make this format reasonably.
Han Ming added calls into the pmenergy and pmsample libraries if
debugserver is run on Mac OS X Yosemite to get information about the
inferior's power use.
I added support to debugserver for gathering the Genealogy information
about threads, if it exists, and returning it in the jThreadExtendedInfo
JSON result.

Rationale:
Pretty simply, the idea is that sometimes type names are way too long and contain way too many details for the average developer to care about. For instance, a plain ol' vector of int might be shown as
std::__1::vector<int, std::__1::allocator<....
rather than the much simpler std::vector<int> form, which is what most developers would actually type in their code
Proposed solution:
Introduce a notion of "display name" and a corresponding API GetDisplayTypeName() to return such a crafted for visual representation type name
Obviously, the display name and the fully qualified (or "true") name are not necessarily the same - that's the whole point
LLDB could choose to pick the "display name" as its one true notion of a type name, and if somebody really needs the fully qualified version of it, let them deal with the problem
Or, LLDB could rename what it currently calls the "type name" to be the "display name", and add new APIs for the fully qualified name, making the display name the default choice
The choice that I am making here is that the type name will keep meaning the same, and people who want a type name suited for display will explicitly ask for one
It is the less risky/disruptive choice - and it should eventually make it fairly obvious when someone is asking for the wrong type
Caveats:
- for now, GetDisplayTypeName() == GetTypeName(), there is no logic to produce customized display type names yet.
- while the fully-qualified type name is still the main key to the kingdom of data formatters, if we start showing custom names to people, those should match formatters

the SystemRuntime to check if a thread will have any problems
performing an inferior function call so the driver can skip
making that function call on that thread. Often the function
call can be executed on another thread instead.
