Renato Golin 83ece7a499 Sanitize MCJIT remote execution
MCJIT remote execution (ChildTarget+RemoteTargetExternal) protocol was in
dire need of refactoring. It was fail-prone, had no error reporting and
implemented the same message logic on every single function.

This patch rectifies it, and makes it work on ARM, where it was randomly
failing. Other architectures shall profit from this change as well, making
their buildbots and releases more reliable.

// LLI messages from parent-to-child or vice versa follow an exceedingly simple
// protocol where the first four bytes represent the message type, the next
// four bytes represent the size of data for the command and following bytes
// represent the actual data.
//
// The protocol is not intended to be robust, secure or fault-tolerant. It is
// only here for testing purposes and is therefore intended to be the simplest
// implementation that will work. It is assumed that the parent and child
// share characteristics like endianness.
//
// Quick description of the protocol:
//
// { Header + Payload Size + Payload }
//
// The protocol message consist of a header, the payload size (which can be
// zero), and the payload itself. The payload can contain any number of items,
// and the size has to be the sum of them all. Each end is responsible for
// reading/writing the correct number of items with the correct sizes.
//
// The current four known exchanges are:
//
// * Allocate Space:
// Parent: { LLI_AllocateSpace, 8, Alignment, Size }
// Child: { LLI_AllocationResult, 8, Address }
//
// * Load Data:
// Parent: { LLI_LoadDataSection, 8+Size, Address, Data }
// Child: { LLI_LoadComplete, 4, StatusCode }
//
// * Load Code:
// Parent: { LLI_LoadCodeSection, 8+Size, Address, Code }
// Child: { LLI_LoadComplete, 4, StatusCode }
//
// * Execute Code:
// Parent: { LLI_Execute, 8, Address }
// Child: { LLI_ExecutionResult, 4, Result }
//
// It is the responsibility of either side to check for correct headers,
// sizes and payloads, since any inconsistency would misalign the pipe, and
// result in data corruption.
