Crashpad has many tests that crash intentionally. Some of these are
gtest death tests, and others arrange for intentional crashes to test
Crashpad’s own crash-catching logic. On macOS, all of the gtest death
tests and some of the other intentional crashes were being logged by
ReportCrash, the system’s crash reporter. Since these reports
corresponded to intentional crashes, they were never useful, and served
only to clutter ~/Library/Logs/DiagnosticReports.
Since Crashpad is adept at handling exceptions on its own, this
introduces the “exception swallowing server”,
crashpad_exception_swallower, which is a Mach exception server that
implements a no-op exception handler routine for all exceptions
received. The exception swallowing server is established as the task
handler for EXC_CRASH and EXC_CORPSE_NOTIFY exceptions during gtest
death tests invoked by {ASSERT,EXPECT}_DEATH_{CHECK,CRASH}, and for all
child processes invoked by the Multiprocess test infrastructure. The
exception swallowing server is not in effect at other times, so
unexpected crashes in test code can still be handled by ReportCrash or
another crash reporter.
With this change in place, no new reports are generated in the
user-level ~/Library/Logs/DiagnosticReports or the system’s
/Library/Logs/DiagnosticReports during a run of Crashpad’s full test
suite on macOS.

I opted to leave casts to types that were definitely the same size
alone. reinterpret_cast<uintptr_t>(pointer) and
reinterpret_cast<intptr_t>(pointer) should always be safe, for example.
Casts to other integral types have been replaced with
FromPointerCast<>(), which does zero-extension or sign-extension based
on the target type.
To make it possible to use FromPointerCast<>() with some use sites that
were already using checked_cast<>(), FromPointerCast<>() now uses
check_cast<>() when converting to a narrower type.
Test: crashpad_util_test FromPointerCast*, others

Some of the new Linux/Android tests were failing in 32-bit code where
pointers were being casted via reinterpret_cast<>() to LinuxVMAddress,
an unsigned 64-bit type. The behavior of such casts is
implementation-defined, and in this case, sign-extension was being used
to convert the 32-bit pointers to 64 bits, resulting in very large
(unsigned) LinuxVMAddress values that could not possibly refer to proper
addresses in a 32-bit process’ address space.
The offending reinterpret_cast<>() conversions have been replaced with
the new FromPointerCast<>(), which is careful to do sign-extension when
converting to a signed type, and zero-extension when converting to an
unsigned type like LinuxVMAddress.
