19e9205a23 Simplify the pager support in DDB. Allowing different db commands to
install custom pager functions didn't actually happen in practice (they
all just used the simple pager and passed in a local quit pointer).  So,
just hardcode the simple pager as the only pager and make it set a global
db_pager_quit flag that db commands can check when the user hits 'q' (or a
suitable variant) at the pager prompt.  Also, now that it's easy to do so,
enable paging by default for all ddb commands.  Any command that wishes to
honor the quit flag can do so by checking db_pager_quit.  Note that the
pager can also be effectively disabled by setting $lines to 0.

Other fixes:
- 'show idt' on i386 and pc98 now actually checks the quit flag and
  terminates early.
- 'show intr' now actually checks the quit flag and terminates early.

d605beaaa8 Add two helper functions: db_lookup_thread() and db_lookup_proc(). They
take the addr value passed to a ddb command and attempt to use it to
lookup a struct thread * or struct proc *, respectively.  Each function
first reparses the passed in value as if it was an ID entered in base 10.
For threads the ID is treated as a thread ID, for proceses the ID is
treated as a PID.  If a thread or proc matching the ID is found, it is
returned.  For db_lookup_thread(), if the check_pid argument is true and
it didn't find a thread with a matching thread ID, it will treat the ID as
a PID and look for a matching process.  If it finds one it returns the
first thread in the process.  If none of the ID lookups succeeded, then
the functions assume that the passed in address is a thread or proc
pointer, respectively.  This allows one to use tids, pids, or structure
pointers interchangeably in ddb functions that want to lookup threads or
processes if desired.

2afce774e7 When printing information on the current thread, such as when entering
DDB, also print the pid of the process if present.  Since much
debugging still centers around processes, having the pid is quite
helpful.

d39d4a6e64 - Change the ddb paging "support" to use a variable (db_lines_per_page) to
control the number of lines per page rather than a constant.  The variable
  can be examined and changed in ddb as '$lines'.  Setting the variable to
  0 will effectively turn off paging.
- Change db_putchar() to force out pending whitespace before outputting
  newlines and carriage returns so that one can rub out content on the
  current line via '\r     \r' type strings.
- Change the simple pager to rub out the --More-- prompt explicitly when
  the routine exits.
- Add some aliases to the simple pager to make it more compatible with
  more(1): 'e' and 'j' do a single line.  'd' does half a page, and
  'f' does a full page.

37224cd3fc Mega update for the KDB framework: turn DDB into a KDB backend.
Most of the changes are a direct result of adding thread awareness.
Typically, DDB_REGS is gone. All registers are taken from the
trapframe and backtraces use the PCB based contexts. DDB_REGS was
defined to be a trapframe on all platforms anyway.
Thread awareness introduces the following new commands:
	thread X	switch to thread X (where X is the TID),
	show threads	list all threads.

The backtrace code has been made more flexible so that one can
create backtraces for any thread by giving the thread ID as an
argument to trace.

With this change, ia64 has support for breakpoints.
