Reid Kleckner cb38af30a0 Implement the JIT side of the GDB JIT debugging interface. To enable this
feature, either build the JIT in debug mode to enable it by default or pass
-jit-emit-debug to lli.

Right now, the only debug information that this communicates to GDB is call
frame information, since it's already being generated to support exceptions in
the JIT.  Eventually, when DWARF generation isn't tied so tightly to AsmPrinter,
it will be easy to push that information to GDB through this interface.

Here's a step-by-step breakdown of how the feature works:

- The JIT generates the machine code and DWARF call frame info
  (.eh_frame/.debug_frame) for a function into memory.
- The JIT copies that info into an in-memory ELF file with a symbol for the
  function.
- The JIT creates a code entry pointing to the ELF buffer and adds it to a
  linked list hanging off of a global descriptor at a special symbol that GDB
  knows about.
- The JIT calls a function marked noinline that GDB knows about and has put an
  internal breakpoint in.
- GDB catches the breakpoint and reads the global descriptor to look for new
  code.
- When sees there is new code, it reads the ELF from the inferior's memory and
  adds it to itself as an object file.
- The JIT continues, and the next time we stop the program, we are able to
  produce a proper backtrace.

Consider running the following program through the JIT:

#include <stdio.h>
void baz(short z) {
  long w = z + 1;
  printf("%d, %x\n", w, *((int*)NULL));  // SEGFAULT here
}
void bar(short y) {
  int z = y + 1;
  baz(z);
}
void foo(char x) {
  short y = x + 1;
  bar(y);
}
int main(int argc, char** argv) {
  char x = 1;
  foo(x);
}

Here is a backtrace before this patch:
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
