In https://codereview.chromium.org/1411523006, the Mach port scopers are
becoming better ScopedGenerics and are losing the type conversion
operators in the process. This is needed to adapt to that change. get()
is ugly, but being explicit about conversion isn’t a bad thing, and
these scopers will gain functionality such as Pass() as part of the
switch.
As a bonus, some would-be uses of get() to check for valid port rights
are becoming a more descriptive is_valid().

ExceptionPorts::GetExceptionPorts() returned a
std::vector<ExceptionPorts::ExceptionHandler>, which contained send
rights to Mach ports. The interface required callers to assume ownership
of each send right contained within the vector. This was cumbersome and
error-prone, and despite the care taken in Crashpad, port right leaks
did occur:
- SimulateCrash() didn’t make any attempt to release these resources at
all.
- Neither did crashpad_util_test ExceptionPorts.HostExceptionPorts,
which also reused a vector.
This replaces the vector with the interface-compatible (as far as
necessary) ExceptionPorts::ExceptionHandlerVector, which deallocates
collected port rights on destruction or clear().

implicit_cast<> only performs a cast in cases where an implicit
conversion would be possible. It’s even safer than static_cast<> It’s an
“explicit implicit” cast, which is not normally necsesary, but is
frequently required when working with the ?: operator, functions like
std::min() and std::max(), and logging and testing macros.
The public style guide does not mention implicit_cast<> only because it
is not part of the standard library, but would otherwise require it in
these situations. Since base does provide implicit_cast<>, it should be
used whenever possible.
The only uses of static_cast<> not converted to implicit_cast<> are
those that require static_cast<>, such as those that assign an integer
constant to a variable of an enum type.
