Heap-allocate MinidumpContextAMD64Writer objects with proper alignment
While making crashpad_minidump_test run in Chromium’s try- and buildbots (https://crbug.com/779790), crashes in the MinidumpThreadWriter.OneThread_AMD64_Stack test were observed in 32-bit x86 Windows builds produced by Clang in the release configuration. These crashes occurred in crashpad::test::InitializeMinidumpContextAMD64, which heap-allocates a MinidumpContextAMD64Writer object. These objects have an alignment requirement of 16, based on the alignment requirement of their MinidumpContextAMD64 member. Although this problem was never observed with MSVC, Clang was making use of the known strict alignment and producing code that depended on it. This code crashed if the requirement was not met. MSVC had raised a warning about this usage (C4316), but the warning was disabled as it did not appear to have any ill effect on code produced by that compiler. The problem surfaced in test code, but heap-allocated MinidumpContextAMD64Writer objects are created in non-test code as well. The impact is limited, because a 32-bit Windows Crashpad handler would not have a need to allocate one of these objects. As a fix, MinidumpContextAMD64Writer is given a custom allocation function (a static “operator new()” member and matching “operator delete()”) that returns properly aligned memory.
