of the "self"/"this" pointer for the current stack
frame before wrapping expressions in C++ or
Objective-C methods. This works around bad debug
info where the compiler emits a "this" or "self"
but doesn't give any way to find its location.

Make breakpoint setting by file and line much more efficient by only looking for inlined breakpoint locations if we are setting a breakpoint in anything but a source implementation file. Implementing this complex for a many reasons. Turns out that parsing compile units lazily had some issues with respect to how we need to do things with DWARF in .o files. So the fixes in the checkin for this makes these changes:
- Add a new setting called "target.inline-breakpoint-strategy" which can be set to "never", "always", or "headers". "never" will never try and set any inlined breakpoints (fastest). "always" always looks for inlined breakpoint locations (slowest, but most accurate). "headers", which is the default setting, will only look for inlined breakpoint locations if the breakpoint is set in what are consudered to be header files, which is realy defined as "not in an implementation source file".
- modify the breakpoint setting by file and line to check the current "target.inline-breakpoint-strategy" setting and act accordingly
- Modify compile units to be able to get their language and other info lazily. This allows us to create compile units from the debug map and not have to fill all of the details in, and then lazily discover this information as we go on debuggging. This is needed to avoid parsing all .o files when setting breakpoints in implementation only files (no inlines). Otherwise we would need to parse the .o file, the object file (mach-o in our case) and the symbol file (DWARF in the object file) just to see what the compile unit was.
- modify the "SymbolFileDWARFDebugMap" to subclass lldb_private::Module so that the virtual "GetObjectFile()" and "GetSymbolVendor()" functions can be intercepted when the .o file contenst are later lazilly needed. Prior to this fix, when we first instantiated the "SymbolFileDWARFDebugMap" class, we would also make modules, object files and symbol files for every .o file in the debug map because we needed to fix up the sections in the .o files with information that is in the executable debug map. Now we lazily do this in the DebugMapModule::GetObjectFile()
Cleaned up header includes a bit as well.

current symbol context is a C++ or Objective-C
instance method.
Specifically, ensure that we fetch information
on the current block, not just the current
function.

allocations by section. We install these sections
in the target process and inform the JIT of their
new locations.
Also removed some unused variable warnings.

I started work on being able to add symbol files after a debug session
had started with a new "target symfile add" command and quickly ran into
problems with stale Address objects in breakpoint locations that had
lldb_private::Section pointers into modules that had been removed or
replaced. This also let to grabbing stale modules from those sections.
So I needed to thread harded the Address, Section and related objects.
To do this I modified the ModuleChild class to now require a ModuleSP
on initialization so that a weak reference can created. I also changed
all places that were handing out "Section *" to have them hand out SectionSP.
All ObjectFile, SymbolFile and SymbolVendors were inheriting from ModuleChild
so all of the find plug-in, static creation function and constructors now
require ModuleSP references instead of Module *.
Address objects now have weak references to their sections which can
safely go stale when a module gets destructed.
This checkin doesn't complete the "target symfile add" command, but it
does get us a lot clioser to being able to do such things without a high
risk of crashing or memory corruption.

parser. Specifically:
- ClangUserExpression now keeps weak pointers to the
structures it needs and then locks them when needed.
This ensures that they continue to be valid without
leaking memory if the ClangUserExpression is long
lived.
- ClangExpressionDeclMap, instead of keeping a pointer
to an ExecutionContext, now contains an
ExecutionContext. This prevents bugs if the pointer
or its contents somehow become stale. It also no
longer requires that ExecutionContexts be passed
into any function except its initialization function,
since it can count on the ExecutionContext still
being around.
There's a lot of room for improvement (specifically,
ClangExpressionDeclMap should also use weak pointers
insetad of shared pointers) but this is an important
first step that codifies assumptions that already
existed in the code.

due to RTTI worries since llvm and clang don't use RTTI, but I was able to
switch back with no issues as far as I can tell. Once the RTTI issue wasn't
an issue, we were looking for a way to properly track weak pointers to objects
to solve some of the threading issues we have been running into which naturally
led us back to std::tr1::weak_ptr. We also wanted the ability to make a shared
pointer from just a pointer, which is also easily solved using the
std::tr1::enable_shared_from_this class.
The main reason for this move back is so we can start properly having weak
references to objects. Currently a lldb_private::Thread class has a refrence
to its parent lldb_private::Process. This doesn't work well when we now hand
out a SBThread object that contains a shared pointer to a lldb_private::Thread
as this SBThread can be held onto by external clients and if they end up
using one of these objects we can easily crash.
So the next task is to start adopting std::tr1::weak_ptr where ever it makes
sense which we can do with lldb_private::Debugger, lldb_private::Target,
lldb_private::Process, lldb_private::Thread, lldb_private::StackFrame, and
many more objects now that they are no longer using intrusive ref counted
pointer objects (you can't do std::tr1::weak_ptr functionality with intrusive
pointers).

parser has hitherto been an implementation waiting
for a use. I have now tied the '-o' option for
the expression command -- which indicates that the
result is an Objective-C object and needs to be
printed -- to the ExpressionParser, which
communicates the desired type to Clang.
Now, if the result of an expression is determined
by an Objective-C method call for which there is
no type information, that result is implicitly
cast to id if and only if the -o option is passed
to the expression command. (Otherwise if there
is no explicit cast Clang will issue an error.
This behavior is identical to what happened before
r146756.)
Also added a testcase for -o enabled and disabled.

the expression parser to locate instances where
dyn_cast<>() and isa<>() are used on types, and
replace them with getAs<>() as appropriate.
The difference is that dyn_cast<>() and isa<>()
are essentially LLVM/Clang's equivalent of RTTI
-- that is, they try to downcast the object and
return NULL if they cannot -- but getAs<>() can
traverse typedefs to perform a semantic cast.

validates the "self," "this," and "_cmd" pointers
that get passed into expressions. It used to check
them aggressively for validity before allowing the
expression to run as an object method; now, this
functionality is gated by a bool and off by default.
Now the default is that when LLDB is stopped in a
method of a class, code entered using "expr" will
always masquerade as an instance method. If for
some reason "self," "this," or "_cmd" is unavailable
it will be reported as NULL. This may cause the
expression to crash if it relies on those pointers,
but for example getting the addresses of ivars will
now work as the user would expect.
