We did not say so explictly, but I'd argue that via #195815, we are supporting 
stubs which do not refcount breakpoints. In these stubs the set/clear 
breakpoint packets are idempotent:
- setting a breakpoint for the second time is a no-op (returns OK)
- clearing a breakpoint clears it, regardless of how many times it has been set
- clearing a non-existent breakpoint (either because it was already cleared, or 
because it was never set) returns an error

This makes lldb-server one of those stubs, which makes the code slightly 
simpler, but more importantly, ensures we do not regress this behavior.

Subject: [PATCH] [lldb] Do not refcount breakpoints in lldb-server

We did not say so explictly, but I'd argue that via #195815, we are
supporting stubs which do not refcount breakpoints. In these stubs the
set/clear breakpoint packets are idempotent:
- setting a breakpoint for the second time is a no-op (returns OK)
- clearing a breakpoint clears it, regardless of how many times it has
  been set
- clearing a non-existent breakpoint (either because it was already
  cleared, or because it was never set) returns an error

This makes lldb-server one of those stubs, which makes the code slightly
simpler, but more importantly, ensures we do not regress this behavior.
