// StackSamplingProfiler periodically stops a thread to sample its stack, for
// the purpose of collecting information about which code paths are
// executing. This information is used in aggregate by UMA to identify hot
// and/or janky code paths.
//
// Sample StackStackSamplingProfiler usage:
//
//   // Create and customize params as desired.
//   base::StackStackSamplingProfiler::SamplingParams params;
//   // Any thread's ID may be passed as the target.
//   base::StackSamplingProfiler profiler(base::PlatformThread::CurrentId()),
//       params);
//
//   // To process the profiles within Chrome rather than via UMA, set a custom
//   // completed callback:
//   base::Callback<void(const std::vector<Profile>&)>
//       thread_safe_callback = ...;
//   profiler.SetCustomCompletedCallback(thread_safe_callback);
//
//   profiler.Start();
//   // ... work being done on the target thread here ...
//   profiler.Stop();  // optional, stops collection before complete per params
//
// When all profiles are complete or the profiler is stopped, if the custom
// completed callback was set it will be called from the profiler thread with
// the completed profiles. If no callback was set, the profiles are stored
// internally and retrieved for UMA through
// GetPendingProfiles(). GetPendingProfiles() should never be called by other
// code; to retrieve profiles for in-process processing, set a completed
// callback.
