LLVM is presumably moving towards `std::string_view` -
`StringRef::startswith` is deprecated on tip. `SmallString::startswith`
was just renamed there (maybe with some small deprecation inbetween, but
if so, we've missed it).
The `SmallString::startswith` references were moved to
`.str().starts_with()`, rather than adding the `starts_with` on
`stable/20230725` as we only had a few of them. Open to switching that
over if anyone feels strongly though.
Rather than just on or off, I've changed it to allow "off", "fast",
or "full". "fast" means that we'll do symbol lookup, but we won't
try to find inline frames and we won't run line number programs
(those are the things that are taking considerable time in some
cases).

Symbolication can take some time, depending on the binaries involved.
In certain contexts it's better for the backtrace to finish quickly,
and then symbolication could be done offline.

We shouldn't try to erase the message when in non-color mode; mostly
that's intended for redirected output scenarios anyway, and in that case
we don't really want garbage in the output.
Also, improve the failure messages when the backtracer itself goes
wrong or can't be executed.
Finally, change the behaviour slightly so that *if* we're explicitly
enabled, *and* the backtracer path wasn't explicitly specified, *and*
we can't find the backtracer, we print a warning on start-up. We
don't do that in any other case because we don't want spurious warnings
everywhere.

When we crash, emit a message straight away that says we're working
on a backtrace. If starting the backtracer fails, report that also.
Finally, add a duration to the messages output by the backtracer, so
that we can see how long it took.

We have two stacks that we set up during crash handling, both of
which were potentially misaligned. This only tripped us up on
Ubuntu 20.04 on aarch64 - my guess is that maybe `clone()` aligns
the stack pointer on newer kernels which is why we didn't see it
on 22.04.

`__cxa_demangle()` is a rather unusual API; one of its "features" is that
the pointer you pass in must either be `nullptr`, in which case it
will call `malloc()` itself, _or_ it has to be a pointer to a block
of memory allocated with `malloc()`, because `__cxa_demangle()` may
`realloc()` it for you.
This seems to me to be something of a non-obvious footgun, so we never
pass the caller's pointer through to `__cxa_demangle()`, which lets them
decide how they want to allocate space.

The `status` argument to the `_swift_backtrace_demangle()` function
isn't especially useful, won't match behaviour on Windows, and we
actually don't use it in the Swift code that calls this SPI.
Remove it.

Use the new module structure rather the old SwiftShims header. This
is much cleaner and lets us include operating system headers to get
the relevant definitions where possible.
Add code to support ELF and DWARF, including decompression using
zlib, zstd and liblzma if those turn out to be required and available.

Mike and Max made various helpful suggestions, so I've added and updated
various comments and amended the code to cope with partial reads and
writes.

This also adds a function to demangle a symbol, and a way for the
backtracing code to report warning messages to the same place as
the main runtime.
I'd like to rename the _swift_isThunkFunction() SPI also, but we
can't do that until we've made the changes to the _Backtracing
library, so we'll do that there instead.

Some symbolication frameworks have a symbol cache; we probably don't want
to use that for test cases, to avoid running into problems where the cache
holds stale information.

We really, really shouldn't be running the external backtracer for setuid
binaries. It's just too dangerous.
So don't do that. And if someone tries to force us, emit a warning.
