Mark Mentovai 2602e9d5d0 Add CrashpadClient.
CrashpadClient is the primary interface for an application to have
Crashpad monitor it for crashes. It contains StartHandler(), which
starts a Crashpad handler process, and UseHandler(), which configures
the process to direct its crashes to a handler process.

//! without having to start one. To begin directing crashes to the handler,
//! started by this method, call UseHandler() after this method returns
//! successfully.

//! On Mac OS X, this method starts a Crashpad handler and obtains a Mach
//! send right corresponding to a receive right held by the handler process.
//! The handler process runs an exception server on this port.
//!
//! \param[in] handler The path to a Crashpad handler executable.

//! \brief Configures the process to direct its crashes to a Crashpad handler.
//!
//! The Crashpad handler must previously have been started by StartHandler().
//!
//! On Mac OS X, this method sets the tasks exception port for `EXC_CRASH`,
//! `EXC_RESOURCE`, and `EXC_GUARD` exceptions to the Mach send right obtained
//! by StartHandler(). The handler will be installed with behavior
//! `EXCEPTION_STATE_IDENTITY | MACH_EXCEPTION_CODES` and thread state flavor
//! `MACHINE_THREAD_STATE`. Exception ports are inherited, so a Crashpad
//! handler chosen by UseHandler() will remain the handler for any child
//! processes created after UseHandler() is called. Child processes do not
//! need to call StartHandler() or UseHandler() or be aware of Crashpad in any
//! way. The Crashpad handler will receive crashes from child processes that
//! have inherited it as their exception handler even after the process that
//! called StartHandler() exits.
//!
//! \return `true` on success, `false` on failure with a message logged.
