Added two new GDB server packets to debugserver: "QSaveRegisterState" and "QRestoreRegiterState".
"QSaveRegisterState" makes the remote GDB server save all register values and it returns a save identifier as an unsigned integer. This packet can be used prior to running expressions to save all registers.
All registers can them we later restored with "QRestoreRegiterState:SAVEID" what SAVEID is the integer identifier that was returned from the call to QSaveRegisterState.
Cleaned up redundant code in lldb_private::Thread, lldb_private::ThreadPlanCallFunction.
Moved the lldb_private::Thread::RegisterCheckpoint into its own header file and it is now in the lldb_private namespace. Trimmed down the RegisterCheckpoint class to omit stuff that wasn't used (the stack ID).
Added a few new virtual methods to lldb_private::RegisterContext that allow subclasses to efficiently save/restore register states and changed the RegisterContextGDBRemote to take advantage of these new calls.

Found a race condition when killing an application where the state could be set to exited by the waitpid_thread() _before_ we call task resume (via MachProcess::PrivateResume()) in MachProcess::Kill().

325,000 breakpoints for running "breakpoint set --func-regex ." on lldb itself (after hitting a breakpoint at main so that LLDB.framework is loaded) used to take up to an hour to set, now we are down under a minute. With warm file caches, we are at 40 seconds, and that is with setting 325,000 breakpoint through the GDB remote API. Linux and the native debuggers might be faster. I haven't timed what how much is debug info parsing and how much is the protocol traffic to/from GDB remote.
That there were many performance issues. Most of them were due to storing breakpoints in the wrong data structures, or using the wrong iterators to traverse the lists, traversing the lists in inefficient ways, and not optimizing certain function name lookups/symbol merges correctly.
Debugging after that is also now very efficient. There were issues with replacing the breakpoint opcodes in memory that was read, and those routines were also fixed.

number in RNBRemote::HandlePacket_qProcessInfo -- add a new
GetCurrentThreadMachPort() so callers who need to make a mach
thred_get_state() call at the RNBRemote level will have a way to
get the port number.

Make it configurable what to profile.
For Mac, we don't use the dirty page size yet and hence there is no need to gather that. This should be way better in not draining the battery since we are operating between 0% to 0.1% on the Mac after this change.

own port namepsace) as the thread identifier to using the system-wide
globally unique thread id as the thread identifier number.
MachThread.cpp keeps both the unique id and the mach port number
for each thread. All layers outside MachThread class use the unique
id with three exceptions: (1) Mach exceptions come in with the port
number (thread_port) which needs to be translated, (2) any calls to
low-level thread_get_state/thread_set_state/thread_suspend etc need
to use the mach port number, (3) MachThreadList::UpdateThreadList
which creates the MachThread objects gets the unique id and passes
it to the MachThread ctor as an argument.
In general, any time nub_thread_t is used, it is now referring to a
unique thread id. Any time a thread_t is used, it is now referring
to a mach port number. There was some interchangability of these
types previously. nub_thread_t has also been changed to a 64-bit
type which necessitated some printf specification string changes.
I haven't been able to test these changes extensively yet but want
to checkpoint the work. The scenarios I've been testing are all
working correctly so while there may be some corner cases I haven't
hit yet, I think it is substantially correct.

Prevent profiling from working on older debugserver. Just a simple renaming since the caller is prepared to handle the ‘unimplemented’ answer.
llvm-svn: 172583
Add unconditional logging messages to every place in debugserver
where we send a SIGKILL signal or do a ptrace PT_KILL call to
terminate the inferior process. When the debuggee is silently
killed off, the console logging from debugserver can disambiguate
whether debugserver killed off the process because it failed to
completely set it up, becuase it was told to (via the "k" packet),
or if some external daemon killed it.

Prevent async and sync calls to get profile data from stomping on each other.
At the same time, don't use '$' as end delimiter per chunk of profile data.

Allow debugserver to match process names that are longer than MAXCOMLEN (16) characters. We do this by digging up argv[0] from another sysctl if the process name supplied is longer than 16 characters.

Add default Process::GetWatchpointSupportInfo() impl which returns an error of "not supported".
Add "qWatchpointSupportInfo" packet to the gdb communication layer to support this, and modify TestWatchpointCommands.py to test it.
