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.

All minidump objects now own their all of their children, rather than
having them maintain weak pointers and requiring callers to maintain
ownership.
The only weak object in the entire tree now is the “extra memory” added
to a MinidumpMemoryListWriter by its AddExtraMemory() method. Extra
memory aliases objects owned elsewhere in the tree, typically by a
MinidumpThreadWriter as stack memory. Non-“extra” memory added to a
MinidumpMemoryListWriter by its AddMemory() method is strongly owned.
Many objects are now deleted through base pointers, and in those cases,
the base classes now have public virtual destructors. The ultimate base,
MinidumpWritable, is still protected to guard against direct
instantiation and deletion, and thus its destructor does not need to be
virtual.
This updates mini_chromium to eeb3b6a4f020 specifically for that
revision, which includes necessary updates to scoped_ptr. It also picks
up:

This change was generated mechanically by running:
find . \( -name \*.cc -or -name \*.mm -or -name \*.h \) \
-and -not -path ./third_party/\* -and -not -path ./out/\* \
-exec sed -i '' -E -e 's/(^|[^_])NULL/\1nullptr/g' {} +
Further manual fix-ups were applied to remove casts of nullptr to other
pointer types where possible, to preserve the intentional use of NULL
(as a short form of MACH_PORT_NULL) in exception_port_tool, and to fix
80-column violations.
