Add a new capability to RegisterContextLLDB: To recognize when the
Full UnwindPlan is trying to do an impossible unwind; in that case
invalidate the Full UnwindPlan and replace it with the architecture
default unwind plan.
This is a scenario that happens occasionally with arm unwinds in
particular; the instruction analysis based full unwindplan can
mis-parse the functions and the stack walk stops prematurely. Now
we can do a simpleminded frame-chain walk to find the caller frame
and continue the unwind. It's not ideal but given the complicated
nature of analyzing the arm functions, and the lack of eh_frame
information on iOS, it is a distinct improvement and fixes some
long-standing problems with the unwinder on that platform.
This is fixing <rdar://problem/12091421>. I may re-use this
invalidate feature in the future if I can identify other cases where
the full unwindplan's unwind information is clearly incorrect.
This checkin also includes some cleanup for the volatile register
definition in the arm ABI plugin for <rdar://problem/10652166>
although work remains to be done for that bug.
