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 augments the standalone and in-Chromium models with an external
model, in which the dependencies and Crashpad are checked out as
siblings in the same directory, organized according to this structure:

root/gtest[/include/gtest/gtest.h]
root/gyp[/pylib/gyp]
root/mini_chromium[/build/common.gypi]
This is the directory structure used in google3.

I've heard/lived enough horror stories about AV, outbound-blocking
firewalls, etc. on Windows, that I think the best approach is to have
chrome.exe embed the majority of crashpad_handler and jump to it as
early as possible when running in that mode.
So, move most of crashpad_handler into a static_library with just main()
in the executable target.

I considered writing the CodeView records to the minidump, but I didn't
find a ton of docs and debugging is only lightly supported (e.g.
http://www.debuginfo.com/articles/gendebuginfo.html#debuggersandformats
and it doesn't attempt to load at all on more recent Visual Studios).
As we won't be generating symbols in this format, and we don't expect to
have symbols for any weird modules that get injected into us in the
wild, it seems like we don't lose anything by just ignoring them.

I thought I had confirmed that this still allocated and ignored the flag
on older OSs, but I must have not had the PLOG active yet? I'm not sure
what I did. (I might try to blame VMware as it has an annoying habit of
caching old binaries when you use it's "Shared Folders" feature to point
at the dev machine's build dir.)
I confirmed that it does work on Win8 and Win10 but doesn't on Win XP
and Win 7.

This replaces the registration server, and adds dispatch to a delegate
on crash requests.
(As you are already aware) we went around in circles on trying to come
up with a slightly-too-fancy threading design. All of them seemed to
have problems when it comes to out of order events, and orderly
shutdown, so I've gone back to something not-too-fancy.
Two named pipe instances (that clients connect to) are created. These
are used only for registration (which should take <1ms), so 2 should be
sufficient to avoid any waits. When a client registers, we duplicate
an event to it, which is used to signal when it wants a dump taken.
The server registers threadpool waits on that event, and also on the
process handle (which will be signalled when the client process exits).
These requests (in particular the taking of the dump) are serviced
on the threadpool, which avoids us needing to manage those threads,
but still allows parallelism in taking dumps. On process termination,
we use an IO Completion Port to post a message back to the main thread
to request cleanup. This complexity is necessary so that we can
unregister the threadpool waits without being on the threadpool, which
we need to do synchronously so that we can be sure that no further
callbacks will execute (and expect to have the client data around
still).
In a followup, I will readd support for DumpWithoutCrashing -- I don't
think it will be too difficult now that we have an orderly way to
clean up client records in the server.

When building in the Chromium tree, this swaps out Crashpad’s copies of
mini_chromium, gtest, and gmock for the equivalents provided by
Chromium. A GYP variable, crashpad_in_chromium, is used to determine the
behavior.
gclient doesn’t sync sub-DEPS, so when doing an in-Chromium build,
Crashpad’s copies of mini_chromium, gtest, and gmock are not available.

In Chromium, many targets are built, sharing a single output directory.
Collisions are likely. When integrating Crashpad into Chromium, the
ui/snapshot library and Crashpad’s snapshot library were found to
conflict.
This change gives most Crashpad targets a “crashpad_” prefix to avoid
conflicts. All library and test targets are given a target_name with
this prefix. Existing tools are not likely to conflict with anything
else and are not given a prefix.

When building in the Chromium tree, chromium_code is necessary to apply
Chromium’s build/filename_rules.gypi. Crashpad’s build depends on these
rules. chromium_code also enables a high warning level, which is

crashpad_handler is Crashpad’s exception handler server.
Currently, it runs a loop to receive exceptions, and exits when it no
longer has any clients. In the future, this will be extended to write
and potentially upload dumps.
The handler is expected to be started by its initial client via the
CrashpadClient interface.
