This module was originally intended to be imported by top-level
scripts to be able to find the LLDB packages and third party
libraries. Packages themselves shouldn't need to import it,
because by the time it gets into the package, the top-level
script should have already done this. Indeed, it was just
adding the same values to sys.path multiple times, so this
patch is essentially no functional change.
To make sure it doesn't get re-introduced, we also delete the
`use_lldb_suite` module from `lldbsuite/test`, although the
original copy still remains in `lldb/test`

packages/Python/lldbsuite is now a Python package, and it relies
on its __init__.py being called to do package-level initialization.
If you exec packages/Python/lldbsuite/dotest.py directly, you won't
get this package level initialization, and things will fail. But
without this patch, this is exactly what dosep itself does. To
launch the multi-processing fork, it was hardcoding a path to
dotest.py and exec'ing it from inside the package.
The fix here is to get the path of the top-level script, and
then exec'ing that instead. A more robust solution would involve
refactoring the code so that dosep execs some internal script that
imports lldbsuite, but that's a bit more involved.

This is the conclusion of an effort to get LLDB's Python code
structured into a bona-fide Python package. This has a number
of benefits, but most notably the ability to more easily share
Python code between different but related pieces of LLDB's Python
infrastructure (for example, `scripts` can now share code with
`test`).
