Description

Remove DumpWithoutCrashing() from broker_process_dispatcher There seems to be very few instances of these dumps on the crash server, but if no one is looking at them, I'd like to remove calls to it. DumpWithoutCrashing() can hide legitimate crashes due to crash throttling.

I searched for BrokerProcessDispatcher::OnMessageReceived on our crash server
and didn't see anyone reported by this DumpWithoutCrashing.
So I think it is okay to remove this.

The reason to introduce this DumpWithoutCrashing was to see whether there were
compromised renderers in the real world trying to send these IPC messages.
Removing DumpWithoutCrashing() doesn't make us any less safe because the check
is still there. But +Justin for input of security expert.
