Description

from @connor4312 in https://github.com/microsoft/debug-adapter-protocol/issues/163:

We also should have readMemory return information about whether the memory is writable, and whether it can be resized. In languages where the binary data is in a well-defined container, like JS or Python, we can grow or shrink it by assigning a new value. However, in statically compiled languages, changing the size of data is likely to be illegal.
