This seems sensible, but I can't see a clear statement that it's safe to
assume that MiniDumpWriteDump() ignores dump type flags it doesn't understand,
so it might be necessary to check the version of dbghelp.dll as well.

Originally, I was thinking of adding some named dump levels, like those
described at [1], but that hasn't happened yet.
