'lldb-6.0 --python-path' reports wrong path

[Jeremy Morse]

LLDB supports an option (-P or --python-path) to report where its corresponding python library is installed, described thus in the man page:

       -P
       --python-path
            Prints out the path to the lldb.py file for this version of lldb.

However, it does not report the correct path on Ubuntu 18.04 / lldb-6.0 (1:6.0-1ubuntu2). Note that I have python-lldb-6.0 installed, so I believe this option should (TM) work:

What I tried:

    $ lldb-6.0 -P
    /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/python2.7/site-packages
    $ stat `lldb-6.0 -P`
    stat: cannot stat '/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/python2.7/site-packages': No such file or directory

What I expected:

python-lldb-6.0 symlinks 'lldb' in dist-packages to the correct directory, so I was expecting `lldb-6.0 -P` to report that path:

    $ lldb-6.0 -P
    /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages
    $ stat `lldb-6.0 -P`/lldb
    File: /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/lldb -> ../../llvm-6.0/lib/python2.7/site-packages/lldb

You should report this bug on the Debian side as the work is happening there.
