Description
Right now, LLDB by default turns off ASLR, which could be an unwanted behavior in certain cases. We can have it turned off by adding " --disable-aslr false" to the launch command . On the other hand, it would not be easy to turn off ASLR in DbgEng (x64dbg does it, but I do not know exactly how; also I am not sure if the technique it uses can be used in DbgEng as well). So chances are that I will have to make this only available for LLDB adapter and not for the DbgEng, at least initailly.
Similar to #563 , but for that one, it is easy to do in DbgEng, but not obvious for LLDB

Research direction
Start by tracing how the LLDB launch command is constructed and compare the requested behavior with issue #563. Verify that the false --disable-aslr option preserves ASLR for LLDB, then determine whether an equivalent DbgEng path is feasible; done means the supported adapter behavior is documented and tested.
