LLDB can often appear deadlocked to users that use IDEs when it is indexing DWARF, or parsing symbol tables. These long running operations can make a debug session appear to be doing nothing even though a lot of work is going on inside LLDB. This patch adds a public API to install a progress callback that will allow IDEs and other tools to create an activity window that can show users what is going on and keep them informed of expensive operations that are going on inside LLDB.
