The system by which debuggerd filters its output to different locations
is now based on an enum called logtype with easy to understand
categories for log messages (like THREAD, MEMORY, etc.) instead of the
old, fairly esoteric scope_flags variable. Now much of the output that
previously went to logcat does not show up on the screen, but all output
can be found in the tombstone file. In addition, the tombstone's
location is now printed so it can be located easily.

Use the libbacktrace C++ interface instead of the C interface in debuggerd.
Reformat the debuggerd code to be closer to Google C++ style.
Fix all debuggerd casts to be C++ casts.
Add a frame number to the frame data structure for ease of formatting and
add another FormatFrameData function.
Change the format_test to use the new FormatFrameData function.
Modify all of the backtrace_test to use the C++ interface.

The old code was essentially trying to be C++ in C and was awkward. This
change makes it all objects with a thin layer that C code can use.
There is a C++ backtrace object that is not very useful, this code will
replace it.
This change also includes moving the backtrace test to a gtest, and adding
coverage of all major functionality.

Remove all of the code in debuggerd that uses libcorkscrew directly
and replace with libbacktrace.
Also do a bit of refactoring to clean up some functions that were
passing around variables that weren't used.

The Activity Manager sets up a permission-guarded domain socket, which
debuggerd connects to when a crash happens. If this is successful,
the daemon then mirrors the logged crash report to that socket, then
closes it.

Provides a new mechanism for dumpstate (while running as root)
to request that debuggerd dump the stacks of native processes that
we care about in bug reports. In this mode, the backtrace
is formatted to look similar to a Dalvik backtrace.
Moved the tombstone generating code into a separate file to
make it easier to maintain.
Fixed a bug where sometimes the stack traces would be incomplete
because we were not waiting for each thread to stop after issuing
PTRACE_ATTACH, only the main thread. So sometimes we were missing
traces for some threads.
Refactored the logging code to prevent accidentally writing data
to logcat when explicitly dumping a tombstone or backtrace from the
console.
Only root or system server can request to dump backtraces but
only root can dump tombstones.
