This supports the “double handler” or “double handler with low
probability” models from https://crashpad.chromium.org/bug/143.
For crashpad_handler to be become its own client, it needs access to its
own executable path to pass to CrashpadClient::StartHandler(). This was
formerly available in the test-only test::Paths::Executable(). Bring
that function’s implementation to the non-test Paths::Executable() in
util/misc, and rename test::Paths to test::TestPaths to avoid future
confusion.
test::TestPaths must still be used to access TestDataRoot(), which does
not make any sense to non-test code.
test::TestPaths::Executable() is retained for use by tests, which most
likely prefer the fatal semantics of that function. Paths::Executable()
is not fatal because for the purposes of implementing the double
handler, a failure to locate the executable path (which may happen on
some systems in deeply-nested directory hierarchies) shouldn’t cause the
initial crashpad_handler to abort, even if it does prevent a second
crashpad_handler from being started.

As brought up in https://codereview.chromium.org/2475863004/, there's
the potential for failed startup if StartHandlerProcess() hangs for
whatever reason. Add a timeout to the wait function so that this case
can attempt to log an error.

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 switches the default behaviour of crashpad_handler.exe to be a
/subsystem:windows app, so that normal usage won't cause a console to be
popped up. At the same time, creates a copy of crashpad_handler.exe in
the output dir named crashpad_handler.com. The .com doesn't affect
normal operation, as the way StartHandler() uses CreateProcess()
requires a real path to a file. However, when run from a command prompt,
.com are found before .exe, so editbin the .com to be to a console app,
which will be run in preference to the exe when run as just
"crashpad_handler", as one tends to do from a command prompt when
debugging. That is:
d:\src\crashpad\crashpad\out\Debug>where crashpad_handler
d:\src\crashpad\crashpad\out\Debug\crashpad_handler.com
d:\src\crashpad\crashpad\out\Debug\crashpad_handler.exe
d:\src\crashpad\crashpad\out\Debug>crashpad_handler --help
Usage: crashpad_handler [OPTION]...
...
d:\src\crashpad\crashpad\out\Debug>crashpad_handler.exe --help
<no output>
d:\src\crashpad\crashpad\out\Debug>crashpad_handler.com --help
Usage: crashpad_handler.com [OPTION]...
...
We also use the .com file in test invocations so that output streams
will be visible.
