[NFC][Py Reformat] Reformat python files in lldb

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.

[lldb/qemu] Support setting arg0 of the debugged program

[lldb/qemu] Separate host and target environments

Qemu normally forwards its (host) environment variables to the emulated
process. While this works fine for most variables, there are some (few, but
fairly important) variables where this is not possible. LD_LIBRARY_PATH
is the probably the most important of those -- we don't want the library
search path for the emulated libraries to interfere with the libraries
that the emulator itself needs.

For this reason, qemu provides a mechanism (QEMU_SET_ENV,
QEMU_UNSET_ENV) to set variables only for the emulated process. This
patch makes use of that functionality to pass any user-provided
variables to the emulated process. Since we're piggy-backing on the
normal lldb environment-handling mechanism, all the usual mechanism to
provide environment (target.env-vars setting, SBLaunchInfo, etc.) work
out-of-the-box, and the only thing we need to do is to properly
construct the qemu environment variables.

This patch also adds a new setting -- target-env-vars, which represents
environment variables which are added (on top of the host environment)
to the default launch environments of all (qemu) targets. The reason for
its existence is to enable the configuration (e.g., from a startup
script) of the default launch environment, before any target is created.
The idea is that this would contain the variables (like the
aforementioned LD_LIBRARY_PATH) common to all targets being debugged on
the given system. The user is, of course, free to customize the
environment for a particular target in the usual manner.

The reason I do not want to use/recommend the "global" version of the
target.env-vars setting for this purpose is that the setting would apply
to all targets, whereas the settings (their values) I have mentioned
would be specific to the given platform.

[lldb] Fix flakyness in TestQemuLaunch.test_stdio_redirect

The test was flaky because it was trying to read from the (redirected)
stdout file before the data was been flushed to it. This would not be a
problem for a "normal" debug session, but since here the emulator and
the target binary coexist in the same process (and this is true both for
real qemu and our fake implementation), there
is a window of time between the stub returning an exit packet (which is
the event that the test is waiting for) and the process really exiting
(which is when the normal flushing happens).

This patch adds an explicit flush to work around this. Theoretically,
it's possible that real code could run into this issue as well, but such
a use case is not very likely. If we wanted to fix this for real, we
could add some code which waits for the host process to terminate (in
addition to receiving the termination packet), but this is somewhat
complicated by the fact that this code lives in the gdb-remote process
plugin.

[lldb/qemu] Add emulator-args setting

This setting allows the user to pass additional arguments to the qemu instance.
While we may want to introduce dedicated settings for the most common qemu
arguments (-cpu, for one), having this setting allows us to avoid creating a
setting for every possible argument.

[lldb/qemu] Add support for pty redirection

Lldb uses a pty to read/write to the standard input and output of the
debugged process. For host processes this would be automatically set up
by Target::FinalizeFileActions. The Qemu platform is in a unique
position of not really being a host platform, but not being remote
either. It reports IsHost() = false, but it is sufficiently host-like
that we can use the usual pty mechanism.

This patch adds the necessary glue code to enable pty redirection. It
includes a small refactor of Target::FinalizeFileActions and
ProcessLaunchInfo::SetUpPtyRedirection to reduce the amount of
boilerplate that would need to be copied.

I will note that qemu is not able to separate output from the emulated
program from the output of the emulator itself, so the two will arrive
intertwined. Normally this should not be a problem since qemu should not
produce any output during regular operation, but some output can slip
through in case of errors. This situation should be pretty obvious (to a
human), and it is the best we can do anyway.

For testing purposes, and inspired by lldb-server tests, I have extended
the mock emulator with the ability "program" the behavior of the
"emulated" program via command-line arguments.

[lldb] Introduce PlatformQemuUser

This adds a new platform class, whose job is to enable running
(debugging) executables under qemu.

(For general information about qemu, I recommend reading the RFC thread
on lldb-dev
<https://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/lldb-dev/2021-October/017106.html>.)

This initial patch implements the necessary boilerplate as well as the
minimal amount of functionality needed to actually be able to do
something useful (which, in this case means debugging a fully statically
linked executable).

The knobs necessary to emulate dynamically linked programs, as well as
to control other aspects of qemu operation (the emulated cpu, for
instance) will be added in subsequent patches. Same goes for the ability
to automatically bind to the executables of the emulated architecture.

Currently only two settings are available:
- architecture: the architecture that we should emulate
- emulator-path: the path to the emulator

Even though this patch is relatively small, it doesn't lack subtleties
that are worth calling out explicitly:
- named sockets: qemu supports tcp and unix socket connections, both of
them in the "forward connect" mode (qemu listening, lldb connecting).
Forward TCP connections are impossible to realise in a race-free way.
This is the reason why I chose unix sockets as they have larger, more
structured names, which can guarantee that there are no collisions
between concurrent connection attempts.
- the above means that this code will not work on windows. I don't think
that's an issue since user mode qemu does not support windows anyway.
- Right now, I am leaving the code enabled for windows, but maybe it
would be better to disable it (otoh, disabling it means windows
developers can't check they don't break it)
- qemu-user also does not support macOS, so one could contemplate
disabling it there too. However, macOS does support named sockets, so
one can even run the (mock) qemu tests there, and I think it'd be a
shame to lose that.
