I am open to different approaches to this problem, this is opening attempt at fixing it but I may be missing other interactions.

AFAICT starting the definition of `ToRecord` the way  `CompleteDecl(…)`  does when we know `FromRecord` is not defined is just broken for the `RecordDecl` case if we have bases.

It took me a lot of time to come up with this reproducer from a real life issue debugging `llc`.


In `ImportContext(…)` we may call into `CompleteDecl(…)` which if `FromRecrord` is not defined will start the definition of a `ToRecord` but from what I can tell at least one of the paths though here don't ensure we complete the definition. 
For a `RecordDecl` this can be problematic since this means we won’t import base classes and we won’t have any of the methods or types we inherit from these bases.

One such path is through `VisitTypedefNameDecl(…)` which is exercised by the reproducer.

For LLDB expression parsing this results in expressions failing but sometimes succeeding in subsequent attempts e.g.:

  (lldb) p BB->dump()
  error: no member named 'dump' in 'B'
  (lldb) p BB->dump()
  (lldb) 

This happens because the first time through `FromRecord` is not defined but in subsequent attempts through it may be.
