Before: 
- `lldb-server platform`
  - got the query `qLaunchGDBServer`
  - request a gdb port from the map (it may be 0)
  - launch `lldb-server gdbserver host:port`
  - if the port was 0, read the actual port back via pipe
  - answer OK and report the actual port and pid
- lldb client connects to gdbserver using host:port (if handshake failed, lldb client kills gdbserver by pid via platform protocol)

After:
- `lldb-server platform`
  - listen to gdbserver-port
  - got the query `qLaunchGDBServer`
  - answer OK and report always known gdbserver-port and ibvalid pid
- lldb client connects to gdbserver using host:port (do nothing if handshake failed)
- `lldb-server platform` got connection and launch `lldb-server gdbserver --fd socket`
  - `lldb-server platform` will transfer the socket info to gdbserver via pipe on Windows (or kill gdbserver if it failed)
