Other information that may be useful (release notes, etc...)
The crashpad library includes tools for manipulating the local crashpad database and uploading to a URL. Developing with crashpad is considerably easier if these tools are built with vcpkg. Otherwise, you have to go download crashpad itself and build them, which kinda defeats the point of using vcpkg to obtain crashpad.
In a default build of crashpad, all the tools and test executables are built. I don't think we need the test executables, but the following tools would be useful:
There are some additional tools that are listed as macOS specific. See the full list of tools here:
