David Chase d30e00c240 splitdwarf: initial working commit
splitdwarf osxMachoFile [ osxDsymFile ]

splitdwarf takes an executable produced by go build as input,
and uncompresses and copies the DWARF segment into a separate
file in the way that is expected by OSX-hosted tools
(lldb and ports of gdb).
If osxDsymFile is not named explicitly, the default of
"<osxMachoFile>.dSYM/Contents/Resources/DWARF/<osxMachoFile>"
is used instead, with directories created as needed.

If the input file contains no UUID, then one is created by
hashing non-DWARF segment contents, and added to the
executable. This is necessary because gdb and lldb both
expect matching UUIDs to be present in the executable
and its debugging symbols.

Includes a modified version of debug/macho, with additional
definitions and the ability to write segments, sections, and
some MachO load commands added.

Splitdwarf uncompresses and copies the DWARF segment of a Mach-O
executable into the "dSYM" file expected by lldb and ports of gdb
on OSX.
Usage: splitdwarf osxMachoFile [ osxDsymFile ]
Unless a dSYM file name is provided on the command line,
splitdwarf will place it where the OSX tools expect it, in
"<osxMachoFile>.dSYM/Contents/Resources/DWARF/<osxMachoFile>",
creating directories as necessary.
