Previously, crashpad_handler made its own receive right, and transferred
a corresponding send right to its client. There are two advantages to
making the receive right in the client:
- It is possible to monitor the receive right for a port-destroyed
notificaiton in the client, allowing the handler to be restarted if
it dies.
- For the future run-from-launchd mode (bug crashpad:25), the handler
will obtain its receive right from the bootstrap server instead of
making its own. Having the handler get its receive right from
different sources allows more code to be shared than if it were to
sometimes get a receive right and sometimes make a receive right and
transfer a send right.
This includes a restructuring in crashpad_client_mac.cc that will make
it easier to give it an option to restart crashpad_handler if it dies.
The handler starting logic should all behave the same as before.

The intended use is to flip the client-server relationship in
CrashpadClient so that the initial client (parent process) furnishes the
handler process with a receive right. The parent can optionally receive
a port-destroyed notification allowing it to restart the handler if it
exits prematurely.

ChildPortHandshake is the most generic system yet to allow child
processes to provide their parents with Mach rights. These are
ordinarily expected to be send rights to the children’s own task ports,
or send rights to servers that the children hold receive rights to.
This updates DEPS to pull mini_chromium 1d3523dbda93, which includes
base::mac::ScopedMachPortSet.
