Details

Breakpad's DWARF parser can't parse DWARF CFI sections (the .debug_frame data).  Following the pattern of the debugging info and line number info parsers, we should design an abstract handler class, and then implement a CFI parser that drives an instance of it.

I've sketched a possible interface for a DWARF CFI parser here:

The DWARF CFI parser is written, with unit tests:
