[libc++abi][AIX] add personality and helper functions for the state table EH
Summary: This patch adds the personality and helper functions for the state table based EH used by IBM legacy compilers xlC and xlclang++ on AIX. * A high level description of the state table based EH is provided in the code comments. * Function scan_state_tab() is added to scan the state table. It is invoked by the state table personality routine __xlcxx_personality_v0() and returns scan_results like scan_eh_tab() does. * A couple of EH helper functions used by xlC and xlclang++ generated code are also added, e.g., __xlc_catch_matchv2() which checks whether the thrown object matches the catch handler's exception type. * Debugging macros _LIBCXXABI_TRACE_STATETAB, _LIBCXXABI_TRACE_STATETAB0, and _LIBCXXABI_TRACING_STATETAB are added to dump state table scanning traces if environment variable LIBCXXABI_PRINT_STATTAB is set. * The state variable and state table data is the LSDA found from the traceback table of the functi...
