// StackSampler is an implementation detail of StackSamplingProfiler. It
// abstracts the native implementation required to record a set of stack frames
// for a given thread. It delegates to StackCopier for the
// platform-specific stack copying implementation.
// This class is used on both the SamplingThread and a worker thread of the
// thread pool. Recording stack frames always occurs on the
// SamplingThread but unwinding the stack can occur on either the SamplingThread
// or a worker thread. Sampling can start before the thread pool is running so
// unwinding will occur on the SamplingThread until the thread pool is ready.
