Microdumps are a very lightweight variant of minidumps. They are meant
to dump a minimal crash report on the system log (logcat on Android),
containing only the state of the crashing thread.
This is to deal with cases where the user has opted out from crash
uploading but we still want to generate meaningful information on the
device to pull a stacktrace for development purposes.
Conversely to conventional stack traces (e.g. the one generated by
Android's debuggerd or Chromium's base::stacktrace) microdumps do NOT
require unwind tables to be present in the target binary. This allows
to save precious binary size (~1.5 MB for Chrome on Arm, ~10 MB on
arm64).

This is a refactoring of the logic which determines the
module name and path for a given MappingInfo in minidump_writer.cc.
Such logic, which will be soon shared also with the upcoming
microdump_writer.cc, is simply being moved to linux_dumper.cc,
extracting a GetMappingEffectiveNameAndPath method.
No behavioral change is intended.

Server is used is done by subtracting the crashing process creation time from
the current time when the crash is generated:
uptime = now - process_creation_time
There was a bug and instead of the process creation time the code was using the
time when the process was registered with the Crash Generation Server.

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

When parsing /proc/pid/maps, current code merges adjacent entries that
refer to the same library and where the start of the second is equal to
the end of the first, for example:
40022000-40025000 r-xp 00000000 b3:11 827 /system/lib/liblog.so
40025000-40026000 r--p 00002000 b3:11 827 /system/lib/liblog.so
40026000-40027000 rw-p 00003000 b3:11 827 /system/lib/liblog.so
When the system linker loads a library it first reserves all the address
space required, from the smallest start to the largest end address, using
an anonymous mapping, and then maps loaded segments inside that reservation.
If the loaded segments do not fully occupy the reservation this leaves
gaps, and these gaps prevent merges that should occur from occurring:
40417000-4044a000 r-xp 00000000 b3:11 820 /system/lib/libjpeg.so
> 4044a000-4044b000 ---p 00000000 00:00 0
4044b000-4044c000 r--p 00033000 b3:11 820 /system/lib/libjpeg.so
4044c000-4044d000 rw-p 00034000 b3:11 820 /system/lib/libjpeg.so
Where the segments that follow this gap do not contain executable code
the failure to merge does not affect breakpad operation. However, where
they do then the merge needs to occur. Packing relocations in a large
library splits the executable segment into two, resulting in:
73b0c000-73b21000 r-xp 00000000 b3:19 786460 /data/.../libchrome.2160.0.so
> 73b21000-73d12000 ---p 00000000 00:00 0
73d12000-75a90000 r-xp 00014000 b3:19 786460 /data/.../libchrome.2160.0.so
75a90000-75c0d000 rw-p 01d91000 b3:19 786460 /data/.../libchrome.2160.0.so
Here the mapping at 73d12000-75a90000 must be merged into 73b0c000-73b21000
so that breakpad correctly calculates the base address for text.
This change enables the full merge by also merging anonymous maps which
result from unused reservation, identified as '---p' with offset 0, and
which follow on from an executable mapping, into that executable mapping.

This CL adds three features that will allow the client to upload the report
file.
Three main modifications are made :
- Allow upload url to have a file:// scheme, and write the HTTP request to file
in that case
- Split the request in two parts in case of a file:// scheme, the request
time and the response time. A new API [handleNetworkResponse] is added.
- Give the opportunity to the client to get the configuration NSDictionary
to be able to recreate the breakpad context at response time.

This patch makes two changes to breakpad to enable crash reporting to work correctly when the library is inside another file (an archive):
- Do not filter mappings which map an executable at a non-zero offset.
- If such an executable is mapped look in the ELF information for the
shared object name and use that name in the minidump.
Note this change doesn't care about the archive format and isn't Android
specific (though loading the shared library this way is currently only done on Android).

The current CreateChildCrash logic is racy when it comes to creating a
crash dump for two reasons:
The main thread that calls kill() on a different thread is guaranteed
the signal will be *queued* when it returns, but not *delivered*. If
the kernel doesn't automatically schedule the receiving thread, but
instead lets the main thread run to the exit() call, then the signal
never triggers a coredump and the whole process simply exits.
The main thread is using kill() to try to deliver a signal to a
specific thread, but that function is for sending signals to a
process. That means the kernel is free to deliver the signal to
any thread in the process and not just the one requested. This
manifests itself as the pr_pid in the coredump not being the one
expected. Instead, we must use tkill() with the tid (which we
already took care of gathering) to deliver to a specific thread.
These are a lot easier to see on a UMP system as contention is heavier.

The Mac crash key manipulation code was intended to be thread-safe through the
provision of a mutex. The mutex operations were done inside an assert().
assert() is a no-op in NDEBUG (release) builds. Therefore, in release builds,
these operations were occurring without being protected by any mutex at all,
and were nowhere near thread-safe.

There are a bunch of tests that use invalid memory acesses (on purpose)
to trigger a crash so that we can detect things are dumped correctly.
When we run under ASAN, it catches those accesses and the breaks the
testing flow.
For now, use the existing ADDRESS_SANITIZER symbol to disable more tests.
Ideally we'd use a compile-time attribute to disable ASAN on a few funcs,
but that seems to be broken atm.

SIGABRT can be generated internally, usually by calling abort(),
or externally by another process. When the signal is generated
by the kernel, info->si_pid is 0 and the signal is treated in the
same way as an exception (SIGSEGV, etc.), but the assumption
that the exception happens again upon return from the handler
is wrong, so we must have a special case for this.

Apparently, as of the 10.8 SDK, Apple has quietly decided that the first
argument to NSLocalizedString is supposed to be usable as-is as a format
string, instead of simply being the key to obtain a usable format string.
The recent clang trunk enforces this, resulting in build breaks like
crash_report_sender.m:560:14: error: data argument not used by format string [-Werror,-Wformat-extra-args]
displayName];
^
Breaking the result of NSLocalizedString into a temporary NSString* is enough
to suppress the warning.
