The process_vm_read function is much faster than ptrace, but sometimes
that will not work on a remote process. Modify the libunwindstack
MemoryRemote object to figure out which one it can use.
Wrote new unit test to verify this checking behavior.
Modify libbacktrace so that the read from libunwind is used instead of
using the default ptrace calls.
Add some benchmarks to libbacktrace to compare the two different methods.
Test: Ran unit tests libbacktrace/libunwindstack/debuggerd.
Test: Ran debuggerd -b <SYSTEM_SERVER_PID>
Test: Ran debuggerd -b <MEDIACODEC PID>
Test: Ran debuggerd -b <RANDOM_PID>
Test: Used crasher to create tombstones and verified stack data is
Test: dumped properly.

New function to create the process memory object. This allows for
a future where different remote process memory objects could be created
depending on the way remote memory can be created. Even different local
memory objects that access memory without doing any checks.
It also allows MemoryRange objects to share one single process memory object
and could help if the process memory object caches data.
Small changes to MapInfo::CreateMemory to when some errors are detected.
- Always check if the map is a device map, instead of only if the name
is not empty.
- Check if a memory map is readable before creating the memory from process
memory.
Bug: 23762183
Test: Ran unit tests, unwound on device using the new code.

Also add a comment to the GetElf function to indicate that it never returns
nullptr.
Also needed to add this library to the a million and one places that the vndk
has hard-coded this data.
Bug: 23762183
Test: Built, nothing uses the new code.
Test: However, I did run backtrace_test using this code, and all tests pass.
