Settings aren't very discoverable by users and they're hard to used when scripting.
Instead of making the scripted symbol locator a global setting, I'd register it with the target with:
- New subcommand `target symbols scripted register -C "myscriptedsymbollocatormodule.myscriptedsymbollocatormodule" -k "key1" -v "val1"`. For completely, we should also have a `clear` subcommand  and may be an `info` subcommand` if the scripted symbol locator can describe itself.
- `SBTarget::RegisterScriptedSymbolLocator(const char *class_name, const SBStructuredData& args)` & `SBTarget::ClearScriptedSymbolLocator()`
