The callback is executed in the same thread as the call to `sentry_capture_event`. Work performed by the function may thus block the executing thread. For this reason, consider avoiding heavy work in `before_send`.

The Crashpad Backend sends Minidumps with an additional event payload out-of-process. `before_send` hooks are not invoked when capturing crashes using Crashpad.
The Crashpad backend on macOS doesn't currently support notifying the crashing process and thus can't correctly terminate sessions or call the registered `before_send` hook. It will also lose any events queued for sending at the time of the crash.
