Scott Graham 6a6a0c27ed win: Support dumping another process by causing it to crash
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.
