lldb-addversion-suffix-to-llvm-server-exec

lldb-server exec users always /usr/bin/lldb-server. Server is required
for any debugging with lldb which makes it unusable unless default version
package has been installed. Small changes to code and debian/rules allows
a workaround for lldb-server start up.

To use this one needs to add cmake definition during configure. eg
-DDEBIAN_VERSION_SUFFIX=-$(LLVM_VERSION)

Better implementation would be to use /usr/share/llvm-$(VERSION)/bin but
that change seems to require a big change to the path handling code
which could then break something else.

This probably should have upstream bug but I couldn't find any existing report.
