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.

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.
e128dcf10122 Remove base/move.h; use std::move() instead of Pass()
8a2363f486e3 Move basictypes.h to macros.h

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.
