This PR introduces a new `ThreadPlanSingleThreadTimeout` that will be
used to address potential deadlock during single-thread stepping.

While debugging a target with a non-trivial number of threads (around
5000 threads in one example target), we noticed that a simple step over
can take as long as 10 seconds. Enabling single-thread stepping mode
significantly reduces the stepping time to around 3 seconds. However,
this can introduce deadlock if we try to step over a method that depends
on other threads to release a lock.

To address this issue, we introduce a new
`ThreadPlanSingleThreadTimeout` that can be controlled by the
`target.process.thread.single-thread-plan-timeout` setting during
single-thread stepping mode. The concept involves counting the elapsed
time since the last internal stop to detect overall stepping progress.
Once a timeout occurs, we assume the target is not making progress due
to a potential deadlock, as mentioned above. We then send a new async
interrupt, resume all threads, and `ThreadPlanSingleThreadTimeout`
completes its task.

To support this design, the major changes made in this PR are:
1. `ThreadPlanSingleThreadTimeout` is popped during every internal stop
and reset (re-pushed) to the top of the stack (as a leaf node) during
resume. This is achieved by always returning `true` from
`ThreadPlanSingleThreadTimeout::DoPlanExplainsStop()` and
`ThreadPlanSingleThreadTimeout::MischiefManaged()`.
2. A new thread-specific async interrupt stop is introduced, which can
be detected/consumed by `ThreadPlanSingleThreadTimeout`.
3. The clearing of branch breakpoints in the range thread plan has been
moved from `DoPlanExplainsStop()` to `ShouldStop()`, as it is not
guaranteed that it will be called.

The detailed design is discussed in the RFC below:

Ensure step-avoid-regexp logs are emitted in the case where the regex has no
capture groups.

Without this change, the log is printed only if the regex has at least one
capture group.

Another change is to the log message: the first capture group has been removed
from the message. There could be zero capture groups, and there could be two or
more capture groups.

Most of our code was including Log.h even though that is not where the
"lldb" log channel is defined (Log.h defines the generic logging
infrastructure). This worked because Log.h included Logging.h, even
though it should.

After the recent refactor, it became impossible the two files include
each other in this direction (the opposite inclusion is needed), so this
patch removes the workaround that was put in place and cleans up all
files to include the right thing. It also renames the file to LLDBLog to
better reflect its purpose.

<title>[lldb][NFC] Remove all uses of StringRef::withNullAsEmpty in LLDB</title>

A long time ago LLDB wanted to start using StringRef instead of
C-Strings/ConstString but was blocked by the fact that the StringRef constructor
that takes a C-string was asserting that the C-string isn't a nullptr. To
workaround this, D24697 introduced a special function called `withNullAsEmpty`
and that's what LLDB (and only LLDB) started to use to build StringRefs from
C-strings.

A bit later it seems that `withNullAsEmpty` was declared too awkward to use and
instead the assert in the StringRef constructor got removed (see D24904). The
rest of LLDB was then converted to StringRef by just calling the now perfectly
usable implicit constructor.

However, all the calls to `withNullAsEmpty` just remained and are now just
strange artefacts in the code base that just look out of place. It's also
curiously a LLDB-exclusive function and no other project ever called it since
it's introduction half a decade ago.

This patch removes all uses of `withNullAsEmpty`. The follow up will be to
remove the function from StringRef.

`QueueThreadPlanForStepInRange` accepts a `step_into_target`, but the constructor for
`ThreadPlanStepInRange` does not. Instead, a caller would optionally call
`SetStepInTarget()` in a separate statement.

This change adds `step_into_target` as a constructor argument. This simplifies
construction of `ThreadPlanSP`, by avoiding a subsequent downcast and conditional
assignment. This constructor is already used in downstream repos.

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).
