The problem with this approach is that qModuleInfo is usually called before starting the inferior (at least for native applications) so we have ho process to use for this purpose.

I think (hope) when a library is loaded by System.loadLibrary then the debugger will capture the full path of the library, but currently a few feature is missing to try it out with a zygote child. If it isn't the case then we have to improve this function to handle that case also.

I think LD_LIBRARY_PATH is generally not used in android, but the bionic linker supports it so if somebody want to use it, then it is possible to do so. I can imagine a few case when you want to do it, so I would like to support it in lldb to be consistent with the library loader.
