This diff is massive, but it's because it connects the client with lldb-server
and also ensures that the postmortem case works.

- Flatten the postmortem trace schema. The reason is that the schema has become quite complex due to the new multicore case, which defeats the original purpose of having a schema that could work for every trace plug-in. At this point, it's better that each trace plug-in defines it's own full schema. This means that the only common field is "type".
  - Because of this new approach, I merged the "common" trace load and saving functionalities into the IntelPT one. This simplified the code quite a bit. If we eventually implement another trace plug-in, we can see then what we could reuse.
  - The new schema, which is flattened, has now better comments and is parsed better. A change I did was to disallow hex addresses, because they are a bit error prone. I'm asking now to print the address in decimal.
- Implemented reading the context switch trace data buffer. I had to do

some refactors to do that cleanly.

  - A major change that I did here was to simplify the circular buffer reading logic. It was too complex. Maybe the original Intel author had something different in mind.
- Implemented all the necessary bits to read trace.json files with per-core data.
- Implemented all the necessary bits to save to disk per-core trace session.
- Added a test that ensures that parsing and saving to disk works.
