/// \brief Crash recovery helper object.
///
/// This class implements support for running operations in a safe context so
/// that crashes (memory errors, stack overflow, assertion violations) can be
/// detected and control restored to the crashing thread. Crash detection is
/// purely "best effort", the exact set of failures which can be recovered from
/// is platform dependent.
///
/// Clients make use of this code by first calling
/// CrashRecoveryContext::Enable(), and then executing unsafe operations via a
/// CrashRecoveryContext object. For example:
///
///    void actual_work(void *);
///
///    void foo() {
///      CrashRecoveryContext CRC;
///
///      if (!CRC.RunSafely(actual_work, 0)) {
///         ... a crash was detected, report error to user ...
///      }
///
///      ... no crash was detected ...
///    }
///
/// Crash recovery contexts may not be nested.
