Introduce a mechanism for reusing Python modules out of tree.
Right now our Python code does not all share a common root. Tests and scripts both contain python code that cannot take advantage of reusability since they are unrelated siblings of each other. In particular, this presents a problem for wanting to use third party packages from both sides, since it does not make sense to copy the module into both places. This patch solves this by introducing a script lldb_shared.py which is a very lightweight script that just searches up the tree until it finds a root, and then imports a module from there. That module knows how to find all of the shared code that LLDB uses, and adjusts sys.path accordingly to make them all visible. llvm-svn: 250858
