Add optional file size limit for minidumps
When there are upwards of 200 threads in a crashing process, each having an
8KB stack, this can result in a huge, 1.8MB minidump file. So I added a
parameter that, if set, can compel the minidump writer to dump less stack.
More specifically, if the writer expects to go over the limit (due to the
number of threads), then it will dump less of a thread's stack after the
first 20 threads.
There are two ways to specify the limit, depending on how you write minidumps:
1) If you call WriteMinidump() directly, there's now a version of the
function that takes the minidump size limit as an argument.
2) If you use the ExceptionHandler class, the MinidumpDescriptor object you
pass to it now has a set_size_limit() method you would call before
passing it to the constructor.
