LLDB has a setting (symbols.enable-background-lookup) that calls dsymForUUID on a background thread for images as they appear in the current backtrace. Originally, the laziness of only looking up symbols for images in the backtrace only existed to bring the number of dsymForUUID calls down to a manageable number. Users have requesting the same functionality but blocking. This gives them the same user experience as enabling dsymForUUID globally, but without the massive upfront cost of having to download all the images, the majority of which they'll likely not need. This patch renames the setting to have a more generic name (symbols.auto-download) and changes its values from a boolean to an enum. Users can now specify "off", "background" and "foreground". The default remains "off" although I'll probably change that in the near future. (cherry picked from commit 5f4b40c)
