[lldb-dev] [Patch] Implement run length encoding

[Abid, Hafiz]

Hi All,
This patch implements the run-length encoding used by the gdb protocol. As gdb reads data 1 byte at a time, it is able to handle RLE as it is putting data in the buffer. We read data in a chunk so I check for RLE on a packet when we have detected its boundary. Tested by running LLDB with gdbserver and also by manually inspecting the packet logs from both sides. Is it ok?

Regards,
Abid
