Swift 5.5.3 and LLDB SwiftNIO crash fix

I posted this bug [SR-15677] LLDB crashes when viewing frame in SwiftNIO code · Issue #4299 · apple/llvm-project · GitHub a week or so ago about LLDB crashing when debugging SwiftNIO on Linux. I since found it is fixed in the nightlies but not on the 5.5 nightly.

Is there any chance whatever fixed it (sorry I have no idea what change fixed the issue, maybe someone closer to the project might know) can be merged into the 5.5 branch while it is open for the 5.5.3 release? Without this fix it is virtually impossible to debug Swift NIO channel handler code using Visual Studio Code on Linux, or when running in a Linux container.

thank you
