Previously, StartHandler() launched the handler process, then connected
over a pipe to register for crash handling. Instead, the initial client
can create and inherit handles to the handler and pass those handle
values and other data (addresses, etc.) on the command line.
This should improve startup time as there's no need to synchronize with
the process at startup, and allows avoiding a call to CreateProcess()
directly in StartHandler(), which is important for registration for
crash reporting from DllMain().
Incidentally adds new utility functions for string/number conversion and
string splitting.
Note: API change; UseHandler() is removed for all platforms.

Adds a new client API which allows causing an exception in another
process. This is accomplished by injecting a thread that calls
RaiseException(). A special exception code is used that indicates to the
handler that the exception arguments contain a thread id and exception
code, which are in turn used to fabricate an exception record. This is
so that the API can allow the client to "blame" a particular thread in
the target process.
The target process must also be a registered Crashpad client, as the
normal exception mechanism is used to handle the exception.
The injection of a thread is used instead of DebugBreakProcess() which
does not cause the UnhandledExceptionFilter() to be executed.
NtCreateThreadEx() is used in lieu of CreateRemoteThread() as it allows
passing of a flag which avoids calling DllMain()s. This is necessary to
allow thread creation to succeed even when the target process is
deadlocked on the loader lock.

This was done in Chromium’s local copy of Crashpad in 562827afb599. This
change is similar to that one, except more care was taken to avoid
including headers from a .cc or _test.cc when already included by the
associated .h. Rather than using <stddef.h> for size_t, Crashpad has
always used <sys/types.h>, so that’s used here as well.
This updates mini_chromium to 8a2363f486e3a0dc562a68884832d06d28d38dcc,
which removes base/basictypes.h.

By invoking crashpad_handler with --mach-service instead of
--handshake-fd, the handler will run as a well-behaved launchd job. The
launchd job may be as a launch agent or launch daemon, or be submitted
to launchd by on_demand_service_tool.

For multiprocess architectures, this method allows the pipe used for
registration to be obtained from CrashpadHandler, even when
CrashpadHandler chooses its own name. This may happen if the handler is
not running on a well-known pipe name but was instead started by
CrashpadHandler::StartHandler(). If Chrome uses this interface, for
example, the browser process will need to call
CrashpadClient::GetHandlerIPCPipe() and pass the pipe name to its child
processes.

If the task’s exception handler for EXC_CRASH, EXC_RESOURCE, and
EXC_GUARD exceptions cannot be set, clear the handler instead.
Nothing considered this function’s return value, and the only viable
fallback action on failure would have been to do what the function now
does, so its return type is changed to void.

Chrome’s relauncher process needs a way to sever ties with the
crashpad_handler instance running from the disk image in order to cause
that instance to exit so that the disk image may be unmounted. This new
function is otherwise not thought to be interesting, and its use is not
recommended.
This comes with a small refactoring to create a
SystemCrashReporterHandler() function, and a fix for a minor port leak
in CrashReportExceptionHandler::CatchMachException().

Windows requires the connection to the handler to do anything, so it
can't really be implemented or tested without CrashpadClient and the

This makes it easier for clients to start the Crashpad handler, instead
of requiring them to know how to construct arguments for the handler
themselves. Note in the TEST that -a is no longer required.

CrashpadClient is the primary interface for an application to have
Crashpad monitor it for crashes. It contains StartHandler(), which
starts a Crashpad handler process, and UseHandler(), which configures
the process to direct its crashes to a handler process.
