A computation in the stack unwind algorithm could cause an overflow if a base
pointer read from crashed process is sufficiently close to top of address space.
This causes a memory read that causes the dump thread to crash, resulting in a
failure to generate crash dump. Check fixed to properly detect that this pointer
is greater than actual memory range of current stack.

This change is a pure refactoring of the common bits of minidump_writer.cc
that will be shared soon with the upcoming microdump_writer.cc.
In particular, this CL is extracting the following classes:
- ThreadInfo: handles the state of the threads in the crashing process.
- RawContextCPU: typedef for arch-specific CPU context structure.
- UContextReader: Fills out a dump RawContextCPU structure from the
ucontext struct provided by the kernel (arch-dependent).
- SeccompUnwinder: cleans out the stack frames of the Seccomp sandbox
on the supported architectures.
- MappingInfo: handles information about mappings
