[lldb] Track CFA pointer metadata in StackID

    In this commit:

9c8e71644227 [lldb] Make StackID call Fix{Code,Data} pointers (#152796)

We made StackID keep track of the CFA without any pointer metadata in
it. This is necessary when comparing two StackIDs to determine which one
    is "younger".

However, the CFA inside StackIDs is also used in other contexts through
    the method StackID::GetCallFrameAddress. One notable case is
DWARFExpression: the computation of `DW_OP_call_frame_address` is done
    using StackID. This feeds into many other places, e.g. expression
evaluation may require the address of a variable that is computed from
    the CFA; to access the variable without faulting, we may need to
preserve the pointer metadata. As such, StackID must be able to provide
    both versions of the CFA.

    In the spirit of allowing consumers of pointers to decide what to do
with pointer metadata, this patch changes StackID to store both versions
of the cfa pointer. Two getter methods are provided, and all call sites
    except DWARFExpression preserve their existing behavior (stripped
    pointer). Other alternatives were considered:

    * Just store the raw pointer. This would require changing the
comparisong operator `&lt;` to also receive a Process, as the comparison
requires stripped pointers. It wasn't clear if all call-sites had a
non-null process, whereas we know we have a process when creating a
      StackID.

* Store a weak pointer to the process inside the class, and then strip
      metadata as needed. This would require a `weak_ptr::lock` in many
operations of LLDB, and it felt wasteful. It also prevents stripping
      of the pointer if the process has gone away.

This patch also changes RegisterContextUnwind::ReadFrameAddress, which
is the method computing the CFA fed into StackID, to also preserve the
    signature pointers.</content>

Some comments were "suffixed" to member variable declarations; these are
moved to before the variable.

Some constructors and operators were just defaulted and not necessary.

Some comments dividing the class into logical sections, like "//
constructors and destructors", were not applied everywhere. These were
removed. They are used in some parts of LLDB, but are the exception.

An include was not needed.

The operator != can be defined in terms of ==.</content>

In architectures where pointers may contain metadata, such as arm64e, it
is important to ignore those bits when comparing two different StackIDs,
as the metadata may not be the same even if the pointers are.

This patch is a step towards allowing consumers of pointers to decide
whether they want to keep or remove metadata, as opposed to discarding
metadata at the moment pointers are created. See
https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/150537.

This was tested running the LLDB test suite on arm64e.</content>

Summary:
A *.cpp file header in LLDB (and in LLDB) should like this:
```
//===-- TestUtilities.cpp -------------------------------------------------===//
```
However in LLDB most of our source files have arbitrary changes to this format and
these changes are spreading through LLDB as folks usually just use the existing
source files as templates for their new files (most notably the unnecessary
editor language indicator `-*- C++ -*-` is spreading and in every review
someone is pointing out that this is wrong, resulting in people pointing out that this
is done in the same way in other files).

This patch removes most of these inconsistencies including the editor language indicators,
all the different missing/additional '-' characters, files that center the file name, missing
trailing `===//` (mostly caused by clang-format breaking the line).

to reflect the new license.

We understand that people may be surprised that we're moving the header
entirely to discuss the new license. We checked this carefully with the
Foundation's lawyer and we believe this is the correct approach.

Essentially, all code in the project is now made available by the LLVM
project under our new license, so you will see that the license headers
include that license only. Some of our contributors have contributed
code under our old license, and accordingly, we have retained a copy of
our old license notice in the top-level files in each project and
repository.

This patch removes the comments grouping header includes. They were
added after running IWYU over the LLDB codebase. However they add little
value, are often outdates and burdensome to maintain.

This is intended as a clean up after the big clang-format commit
(r280751), which unfortunately resulted in many of the comment
paragraphs in LLDB being very hard to read.

FYI, the script I used was:

import textwrap
import commands
import os
import sys
import re
tmp = "%s.tmp"%sys.argv[1]
out = open(tmp, "w+")
with open(sys.argv[1], "r") as f:
  header = ""
  text = ""
  comment = re.compile(r'^( *//) ([^ ].*)$')
  special = re.compile(r'^((([A-Z]+[: ])|([0-9]+ )).*)|(.*;)$')
  for line in f:
      match = comment.match(line)
      if match and not special.match(match.group(2)):
          # skip intentionally short comments.
          if not text and len(match.group(2)) &lt; 40:
              out.write(line)
              continue

          if text:

          else:
              header = match.group(1)
              text = match.group(2)

          continue

      if text:
          filled = textwrap.wrap(text, width=(78-len(header)),
                                 break_long_words=False)
          for l in filled:
              out.write(header+" "+l+'\n')

<title>Move classes from Core -&gt; Utility.</title>

This moves the following classes from Core -&gt; Utility.

ConstString
Error
RegularExpression
Stream
StreamString

The goal here is to get lldbUtility into a state where it has
no dependendencies except on itself and LLVM, so it can be the
starting point at which to start untangling LLDB's dependencies.
These are all low level and very widely used classes, and
previously lldbUtility had dependencies up to lldbCore in order
to use these classes.  So moving then down to lldbUtility makes
sense from both the short term and long term perspective in
solving this problem.

*** to conform to clang-format’s LLVM style.  This kind of mass change has
*** two obvious implications:

Firstly, merging this particular commit into a downstream fork may be a huge
effort.  Alternatively, it may be worth merging all changes up to this commit,
performing the same reformatting operation locally, and then discarding the
merge for this particular commit.  The commands used to accomplish this
reformatting were as follows (with current working directory as the root of
the repository):

    find . \( -iname "*.c" -or -iname "*.cpp" -or -iname "*.h" -or -iname "*.mm" \) -exec clang-format -i {} +
    find . -iname "*.py" -exec autopep8 --in-place --aggressive --aggressive {} + ;

The version of clang-format used was 3.9.0, and autopep8 was 1.2.4.

Secondly, “blame” style tools will generally point to this commit instead of
a meaningful prior commit.  There are alternatives available that will attempt
to look through this change and find the appropriate prior commit.  YMMV.
