2023-05-25[NFC][Py Reformat] Reformat python files in lldbJonas Devlieghere
This is an ongoing series of commits that are reformatting our Python code. Reformatting is done with `black` (23.1.0). If you end up having problems merging this commit because you have made changes to a python file, the best way to handle that is to run `git checkout --ours <yourfile>` and then reformat it with black.

2022-11-10[lldb] Make callback-based formatter matching available from the CLI.Jorge Gorbe Moya
This change adds a `--recognizer-function` (`-R`) to `type summary add` and `type synth add` that allows users to specify that the names in the command are not type names but python function names. It also adds an example to lldb/examples, and a section in the data formatters documentation on how to use recognizer functions. Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D137000
2022-10-19[lldb] Add matching based on Python callbacks for data formatters.Jorge Gorbe Moya
This patch adds a new matching method for data formatters, in addition to the existing exact typename and regex-based matching. The new method allows users to specify the name of a Python callback function that takes a `SBType` object and decides whether the type is a match or not. Here is an overview of the changes performed: - Add a new `eFormatterMatchCallback` matching type, and logic to handle it in `TypeMatcher` and `SBTypeNameSpecifier`. - Extend `FormattersMatchCandidate` instances with a pointer to the current `ScriptInterpreter` and the `TypeImpl` corresponding to the candidate type, so we can run registered callbacks and pass the type to them. All matcher search functions now receive a `FormattersMatchCandidate` instead of a type name. - Add some glue code to ScriptInterpreterPython and the SWIG bindings to allow calling a formatter matching callback. Most of this code is modeled after the equivalent code for watchpoint callback functions. - Add an API test for the new callback-based matching feature. For more context, please check the RFC thread where this feature was originally discussed: https://discourse.llvm.org/t/rfc-python-callback-for-data-formatters-type-matching/64204/11 Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D135648
