The parsing code uses DW_AT_call_tail_call to determine whether or not there's 
a tail call, which is already explicit. However, the CallEdge representation 
does take an invalid return_pc address to mean there's a tail call. My $0.02 is 
that that's legit, and a producer that emits DW_AT_call_return_pc at a tail 
call site is behaving badly. If we care to support that, we could do it by 
changing the condition on line 3710 to `attr == DW_AT_call_return_pc && 
!tail_call`.

Comment at: 
lldb/test/API/functionalities/tail_call_frames/disambiguate_paths_to_common_sink/main.cpp:8
+  // FROM-FUNC1-NEXT: func1
+  // FROM-FUNC1-SAME: [artificial]
+  // FROM-FUNC1-NEXT: main
----------------
Are these test updates necessary because lldb doesn't print '[opt]' and 
'[artificial]' next to frame descriptions in a consistent way across platforms? 
Or is it just that you don't think matching '[opt]' is relevant to the test?
