From #143177. This combines the summaries for the pre- and post C++ 11
`std::string` as well as `std::wstring`. In all cases, the data pointer
is reachable through `_M_dataplus._M_p`. It has the correct type (i.e.
`char*`/`wchar_t*`) and it's null terminated, so LLDB knows how to
format it as expected when using `GetSummaryAsCString`.</content>

<title>[lldb] Refactor away UB in SBValue::GetLoadAddress (#141799)</title>

<content type='text'>
The problem was in calling GetLoadAddress on a value in the error state,
where `ValueObject::GetLoadAddress` could end up accessing the
uninitialized "address type" by-ref return value from `GetAddressOf`.
This probably happened because each function expected the other to
initialize it.

We can guarantee initialization by turning this into a proper return
value.

I've added a test, but it only (reliably) crashes if lldb is built with
ubsan.</content>

<title>[LLDB] Avoid crashes when inspecting MSVC STL types (#140761)</title>

<content type='text'>
When inspecting/printing types from MSVC's STL, LLDB would crash because
it assumes these types were from libstdc++. Specifically,
`std::shared_ptr` and `std::optional` would crash because of a null
pointer dereference. I added a minimal test that tests the types with
C++ helpers for libstdc++ (only tests for crashes).

- Fixes #115216 
- Fixes #120310 

This still has one unresolved discussion: What about MS STL types? This
is https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/24834, but there was a
bit of discussion in #120310 as well. The main issue is that MSVC's STL
uses the same type names as libstdc++ (i.e. neither uses an inline
namespace like libc++ for some types).</content>

<id>b3d130279f5c59a82d48d4647bef626ac4e202cf</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch replaces the use of `UINT32_MAX` as the error return value of
`GetIndexOfChildWithName` with `llvm::Expected`.


# Tasks to do in another PR

1. Replace `CalculateNumChildrenIgnoringErrors` with
`CalculateNumChildren`. See [this
comment](https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/136693#discussion_r2056319358).
2. Update `lldb_private::formatters::ExtractIndexFromString` to use
`llvm::Expected`. See [this
comment](https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/136693#discussion_r2054217536).
3. Create a new class which carries both user and internal errors. See
[this
comment](https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/136693#discussion_r2056439608).</content>

<title>[lldb] Upgrade CompilerType::GetBitSize to return llvm::Expected  (#129601)</title>

<content type='text'>
This patch pushes the error handling boundary for the GetBitSize()
methods from Runtime into the Type and CompilerType APIs. This makes it
easier to diagnose problems thanks to more meaningful error messages
being available. GetBitSize() is often the first thing LLDB asks about a
type, so this method is particularly important for a better user
experience.

The vast majority of `SyntheticChildrenFrontEnd` subclasses provide
children, and as such implement `MightHaveChildren` with a constant
value of `true`. This change makes `true` the default value. With this
change, `MightHaveChildren` only needs to be implemented by synthetic
providers that can return `false`, which is only 3 subclasses.</content>

ValueObject is part of lldbCore for historical reasons, but conceptually
it deserves to be its own library. This does introduce a (link-time) circular
dependency between lldbCore and lldbValueObject, which is unfortunate
but probably unavoidable because so many things in LLDB rely on
ValueObject. We already have cycles and these libraries are never built
as dylibs so while this doesn't improve the situation, it also doesn't
make things worse.

The header includes were updated with the following command:

```
find . -type f -exec sed -i.bak "s%include \"lldb/Core/ValueObject%include \"lldb/ValueObject/ValueObject%" '{}' \;
```</content>
