This bug manifests itself on Android x64 (in ExceptionHandlerTest::ExternalDumper), but is possible on any platform.
The compiler is unaware of the code which runs in the signal handler which reads this variable. Without volatile the compiler is free to optimise away writes to this variable which it believes are never read.

This is an initial attempt to add Arm64 (aarch64) support to Breakpad for
Linux / Android platforms. This CL adds the Arm64 data structures, but does
not yet implement the Android getcontext support or CPUFillFromThreadInfo /
CPUFillFromUContext.

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.

(instead of C++) it gets upset about the default argument. Instead of
using a default argument I split the function up into two separate
functions.

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.

The inconsistent and duplicated references to gDebugLog caused
problems building on iOS and the current logging implementation
had little utility because it was never activated in debug builds.

Add a resetConfiguration method to BreakpadController for iOS. The new method
resets the controller configuration to its initial value, which is the
infoDictionary of the bundle of the application.

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.

For CPUs that don't support the MMX instruction set, such pre-Pentium III or industrial x86 embedded PCs, the minidump fails when it tries to retrieve MMX specific registers.
This patch adds MMX detection for that call.
Tested on Ubuntu 12.04 with i686, and on a custom Linux distro on a Vortex86DX microcontroller.
