sandbox launch fails with "access denied"

Project Member Reported by joenotcharles@chromium.org, Jun 26 2018

Issue description

OS: Windows

BrokerServices::SpawnTarget occasionally fails with last_error set to 5 (access denied). In the field this happens more often on Windows 7.

An internal test can reproduce this on Windows 7 by spawning about 40 sandbox subprocesses that do minimal work in MULTIPROCESS_TEST_MAIN. The failures don't happen with --single-process-tests but it does happen with LaunchUnitTestsSerially (which I undertand splits into multiple shards but runs the tests in serial within each shard). Is it possible that with sharding starting so many short-lived sandboxes is running out of system resources?

I have a unit test that's failing repeatedly due to this error on win7 now. Sample failure: https://ci.chromium.org/p/chromium/builders/luci.chromium.try/win7_chromium_rel_ng/53472

This is the first time a sandbox has been started in the test run, so it doesn't seem to be due to load.

Bumping to P2 since this is blocking open-sourcing the Chrome Cleanup tool - this unit test is pretty basic that I don't want to continue with the open sourcing until it's working.
