This patch adds support for Linux on SystemZ:
- A new ArchSpec value of eCore_s390x_generic
- A new directory Plugins/ABI/SysV-s390x providing an ABI implementation
- Register context support
- Native Linux support including watchpoint support
- ELF core file support
- Misc. support throughout the code base (e.g. breakpoint opcodes)
- Test case updates to support the platform
This should provide complete support for debugging the SystemZ platform.
Not yet supported are optional features like transaction support (zEC12)
or SIMD vector support (z13).
There is no instruction emulation, since our ABI requires that all code
provide correct DWARF CFI at all PC locations in .eh_frame to support
unwinding (i.e. -fasynchronous-unwind-tables is on by default).
The implementation follows existing platforms in a mostly straightforward
manner. A couple of things that are different:
- We do not use PTRACE_PEEKUSER / PTRACE_POKEUSER to access single registers,
since some registers (access register) reside at offsets in the user area
that are multiples of 4, but the PTRACE_PEEKUSER interface only allows
accessing aligned 8-byte blocks in the user area. Instead, we use a s390
specific ptrace interface PTRACE_PEEKUSR_AREA / PTRACE_POKEUSR_AREA that
allows accessing a whole block of the user area in one go, so in effect
allowing to treat parts of the user area as register sets.
- SystemZ hardware does not provide any means to implement read watchpoints,
only write watchpoints. In fact, we can only support a *single* write
watchpoint (but this can span a range of arbitrary size). In LLDB this
means we support only a single watchpoint. I've set all test cases that
require read watchpoints (or multiple watchpoints) to expected failure
on the platform. [ Note that there were two test cases that install
a read/write watchpoint even though they nowhere rely on the "read"
property. I've changed those to simply use plain write watchpoints. ]

Summary:
There was a bug in linux core file handling, where if there was a running process with the same
process id as the id in the core file, the core file debugging would fail, as we would pull some
pieces of information (ProcessInfo structure) from the running process instead of the core file.
I fix this by routing the ProcessInfo requests through the Process class and overriding it in
ProcessElfCore to return correct data.
A (slightly convoluted) test is included.

Summary:
This also adds a basic smoke test for linux core file reading. I'm checking in the core files as
well, so that the tests can run on all platforms. With some tricks I was able to produce
reasonably-sized core files (~40K).
This fixes the first part of pr26322.

32-bit processes on 64-bit Windows run in a layer called WoW64 (Windows-on-Windows64). If you capture a mini dump of such a process from a 32-bit debugger, you end up with a register context for the 64-bit WoW64 process rather than the 32-bit one you probably care about.
This detects WoW64 by looking to see if there's a module named wow64.dll loaded. For such processes, it then looks in the 64-bit Thread Environment Block (TEB) to locate a copy of the 32-bit CONTEXT record that the plugin needs for the register context.
Added some rudimentary tests. I'd like to improve these later once we figure out how to get the exception information from these mini dumps.

Similar to rL256704 and rL256707, fix a few text files which were
accidentally checked in with DOS line endings, or mixed line endings.

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`

For convenience, we had added the folder that dotest.py was in
to sys.path, so that we could easily write things like
`import lldbutil` from anywhere and any test. This introduces
a subtle problem when using Python's package system, because when
unittest2 imports a particular test suite, the test suite is detached
from the package. Thus, writing "import lldbutil" from dotest imports
it as part of the package, and writing the same line from a test
does a fresh import since the importing module was not part of
the same package.
The real way to fix this is to use absolute imports everywhere. Instead
of writing "import lldbutil", we need to write "import
lldbsuite.test.util". This patch fixes up that and all other similar
cases, and additionally removes the script directory from sys.path
to ensure that this can't happen again.

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`).
