  support attaching by name for platform android (#160931)

## Bug
Trying to attach to an android process by name fails:
```
(lldb) process attach -n com.android.bluetooth
error: attach failed: could not find a process named com.android.bluetooth
```

## Root Cause
PlatformAndroid does not implement the `FindProcesses` method.

As described in `include/lldb/Target/Platform.h`:
```
  // The base class Platform will take care of the host platform. Subclasses
  // will need to fill in the remote case.
  virtual uint32_t FindProcesses(const ProcessInstanceInfoMatch &match_info,
                                 ProcessInstanceInfoList &proc_infos);
```

## Fix
Implement the `FindProcesses` method in PlatformAndroid. Use adb to get
the pid of the process name on the device with the adb client connection
using `adb shell pidof <name>`.

## Reproduce
With an android device connected, run the following

Install and start lldb-server on device
```
adb push lldb-server /data/local/tmp/
adb shell chmod +x /data/local/tmp/lldb-server
adb shell /data/local/tmp/lldb-server platform  --listen 127.0.0.1:9500 --server
```

Start lldb, and run
```
platform select remote-android
platform connect connect://127.0.0.1:9500
log enable lldb platform
```

Connect to the process by name:
```
process attach -n com.android.bluetooth
```

## Test Plan
Before:
```
(lldb) process attach -n com.android.bluetooth
error: attach failed: could not find a process named com.android.bluetooth
```

After:
```
(lldb) process attach -n com.android.bluetooth
