Another example of duplicated code is the debug info parsing (LLDB
source/Plugins/SymbolFile/DWARF vs LLVM lib/DebugInfo/DWARF). I took a
look at trying to rationalize the two when I first started working
with LLDB and it looked like a large task then, and they've only
continued to diverge.

However, diffs between the two trees are now at least not cluttered
with whitespace and formatting differences. I'll try to take another
look at these.
