[lldb-dev] Detailed logging from test runs

[Zachary Turner]

I'll look into -v tomorrow, not sure what it does. -t definitely isnt
enough though. I basically want all calls to LLDB's logging statements to
be output to a file somewhere when i run the test suite.

The reason this is useful is because i had a race condition that was
happening sporadically on different tests when run from the test runner,
but never individually. Attaching after the crash wasn't enough to figure
out what caused the error, since the crash was a symptom of something that
had happened earlier. So i wanted to see a full log for the crash run
