The exception swallower server’s design and interface are both
considerably simpler when the server runs in a thread in the parent test
process, as opposed to a separate process. The only caveat is that this
results in calls to fork() while threaded. Uses of gtest
{ASSERT,EXPECT}_DEATH with the default “fast” gtest death test style
result in this warning:
[WARNING] ../../third_party/gtest/gtest/googletest/src/gtest-death-test.cc:836:: Death tests use fork(), which is unsafe particularly in a threaded context. For this test, Google Test detected 2 threads.

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.

Unreferenced, and not working at all in Crashpad-standalone.
Copied from Chromium at 52a9831d81f2099ef9f50fcdaca5853019262c35 to have
a point where a roll back into Chromium should be a no-op (with Chromium's
build/secondary/third_party/crashpad/... removed).
I'm not sure what we want to do about the various gni references into
Chromium (e.g. //build/config/sanitizers/sanitizers.gni, //testing/test.gni,
etc.) but I guess the sooner they live in Crashpad rather than in Chromium
the sooner we can figure out the sort of knobs and dials we need.
