[lldb] Change the implementation of Status to store an llvm::Error (NFC)
Most APIs that currently vend a Status would be better served by
returning llvm::Expected<> instead. Where possible, APIs should be
refactored to avoid Status. The only legitimate long-term uses of
Status are objects that need to store an error for a long time (which
should be questioned as a design decision, too).
This patch makes the transition to llvm::Error easier by making the
places that cannot switch to llvm::Error explicit: They are marked
with a call to Status::clone(). Every other API can and should be
refactored to use llvm::Expected. In the end Status should only be
used in very few places.
Whenever an unchecked Error is dropped by Status it logs this to the
verbose API channel.
Implementation notes:
This patch introduces two new kinds of error_category as well as new
llvm::Error types. Here is the mapping of lldb::ErrorType to
llvm::Errors:
(eErrorTypeInvalid)
eErrorTypeGeneric llvm::StringError
eErrorTypePOSIX llvm::ECError
eErrorTypeMachKernel MachKernelError
eErrorTypeExpression llvm::ErrorList<ExpressionError>
eErrorTypeWin32 Win32Error
