benchan@chromium.org 30566abed8 Implement core dump to minidump conversion.
This patch is part of a bigger patch that helps merging the breakpad code
with the modified version in Chromium OS.

Specifically, this patch makes the following changes:
1. Turn the LinuxDumper class into a base class and move ptrace related
   code into a new derived class, LinuxPtraceDumper.
2. Add a LinuxCoreDumper class, which is derived from LinuxDumper, to
   extract information from a crashed process via a core dump file instead
   of ptrace.
3. Add a WriteMinidumpFromCore function to
     src/client/linux/minidump_writer/minidump_writer.h,
   which uses LinuxCoreDumper to extract information from a core dump file.
4. Add a core2md utility, which simply wraps WriteMinidumpFromCore, for
   converting a core dump to a minidump.

BUG=455
TEST=Tested the following:
1. Build on 32-bit and 64-bit Linux with gcc 4.4.3 and gcc 4.6.
2. Build on Mac OS X 10.6.8 with gcc 4.2 and clang 3.0 (with latest gmock).
3. All unit tests pass.
4. Run Chromium OS tests to test core2md.

benchan@chromium.org 3822e36b20 Skip ElfCoreDumpTest.ValidCoreFile test if no core dump is generated.
CrashGenerator::CreateChildCrash() may have some flakiness. This patch
changes ElfCoreDumpTest to temporarily skip the ValidCoreFile test if
no core dump is generated by CrashGenerator::CreateChildCrash(), but
print out the error message to help debug the flakiness.

benchan@chromium.org 07e521c396 Add utilities for processing Linux core dump files.
This patch is part of a bigger patch that helps merging the breakpad code
with the modified version in Chromium OS.

Specifically, this patch makes the following changes:
1. Add an ElfCoreDump class for processing Linux core dump files, which will
   later be used to implement the core dump to minidump conversion.
2. Add a CrashGenerator class for generating a crash with a core dump file
   for testing the functionalities of ElfCoreDump.
3. Move some utility functions for reading/writing files to file_utils.h.
