[lldb] Introduce ScriptedFrame affordance (#149622)

This patch introduces a new scripting affordance in lldb:
`ScriptedFrame`.

This allows user to produce mock stackframes in scripted threads and
scripted processes from a python script.

With this change, StackFrame can be synthetized from different sources:
- Either from a dictionary containing a load address, and a frame index,
  which is the legacy way.
- Or by creating a ScriptedFrame python object.

One particularity of synthezising stackframes from the ScriptedFrame
python object, is that these frame have an optional PC, meaning that
they don't have a report a valid PC and they can act as shells that just
contain static information, like the frame function name, the list of
variables or registers, etc. It can also provide a symbol context.

The LLVM Compiler Infrastructure

OpenSSF Scorecard OpenSSF Best Practices libc++

Welcome to the LLVM project!

This repository contains the source code for LLVM, a toolkit for the construction of highly optimized compilers, optimizers, and run-time environments.

The LLVM project has multiple components. The core of the project is itself called “LLVM”. This contains all of the tools, libraries, and header files needed to process intermediate representations and convert them into object files. Tools include an assembler, disassembler, bitcode analyzer, and bitcode optimizer.

C-like languages use the Clang frontend. This component compiles C, C++, Objective-C, and Objective-C++ code into LLVM bitcode -- and from there into object files, using LLVM.

Other components include: the libc++ C++ standard library, the LLD linker, and more.

Getting the Source Code and Building LLVM

Consult the Getting Started with LLVM page for information on building and running LLVM.

For information on how to contribute to the LLVM project, please take a look at the Contributing to LLVM guide.

Getting in touch
