The standard remote debugging workflow with gdb is to start the application on the remote host under gdbserver (e.g.: gdbserver :5039 a.out) and then connect to it with gdb. The same workflow is supported by debugserver/lldb-gdbserver with a very similar syntax but to access all features of lldb we need to be connected also to an lldb-platform instance running on the target. Before this change this had to be done manually with starting a separate lldb-platform on the target machine and then connecting to it with lldb before connecting to the process. This change modifies the behavior of "platform connect" with automatically connecting to the process instance if it was started by the remote platform. With this command replacing gdbserver in a gdb based worflow is usually as simple as replacing the command to execute gdbserver with executing lldb-platform.
