The way in which the Result class is used in Dawn can be fragile
with respect to memory management because the caller of AcquireError
must know they need to delete the returned pointer or a memory leak
will occur. We've had a couple of instances where developers have
accidentally left out the delete call and managed to get past code
review.
This CL changes the Result class so that it assumes the error is
allocated on the heap and forces the caller to use unique_ptr when
calling AcquireError.

More concretely this makes Result<T*, E*> able to be move-constructed
from Result<ChildClassOfT*, E*> for free.

The existing implementation of Result with tagged pointers was not able
to handle constant pointers for the result. This is required in
follow-up CLs to return internal formats in a ResultOrError.
This CL extracts the tagged pointer logic out of Result<T*, E*> so it
can be shared with Result<const T*, E*>.
Tests are also added to cover Result<const T*, E*>.

It currently is a tagged pair instead of a tagged union because it was
much easier to write and the optimization can come later.
