LLDB_EXPORT_ALL_SYMBOLS is useful when building out-of-tree plugins and extensions that rely on LLDB's internal symbols. For example, this is how the Mojo language provides its REPL and debugger support.
Supporting this on windows is kind of tricky because this is normally expected to be done using dllexport/dllimport, but lldb uses these with the public api. This PR takes an approach similar to what LLVM does with LLVM_EXPORT_SYMBOLS_FOR_PLUGINS, and what chromium does for [abseil](https://github.com/chromium/chromium/blob/253d14e20fdc0cab05e5516770dceca18f9bddaf/third_party/abseil-cpp/generate_def_files.py), and uses a python script to extract the necessary symbols by looking at the symbol table for the various lldb libraries.
