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.

This is part 1, only including the bare minimum changes because
our diff tool doesn't easily show differences when a file moves. This
also breaks it into a small chunk in case some other changes break things,
as unlikely as I think that will be.

Also remove a hack that claims to be "just like ARM", but which was
different from the ARM and MIPS behavior.

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.

Also fixed the LOG() macro to actually write to the log again, tracking
the change in _LOG() argument semantics.

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.

Keep track of whether memory maps are readable. Use the information
in try_get_word to try to avoid accidentally dereferencing an invalid
pointer within the current process. (Note that I haven't ever
seen that happen during normal unwinding, but it pays to be
a little more careful.)
Refactored try_get_word a little to make it easier to pass it the
needed state for validation checks by way of a little memory_t struct.
Improved how the memory map for the current process is cached. This is
important because we need up to date information about readable maps.
Use a 5 second cache expiration.
Improved the PC -> LR fallback logic in the unwinder so we can
eke out an extra frame sometimes.
Fixed a bug reading ELF program headers. The phnum & phentsize
fields are half-words. We were incorrectly interpreting
phnum as a whole word.
Used android_atomic_* operations carefully in the unwinder
to prevent possible memory races between the dumper and the dumpee.
This was highly unlikely (or even impossible due to the presence
of other barriers along the way) but the code is clearer now about
its invariants.
Fixed a bug in debuggerd where the pid was being passed to have
its stack dump taken instead of the tid, resulting in short
stacks because ptrace couldn't read the data if pid != tid.
Did a full sweep to ensure that we use pid / tid correctly everywhere.
Ported old code from debuggerd to rewind the program counter back
one instruction so that it points to the branch instruction itself
instead of the return address.
