[common] crash/linux: generate core dump when handling SIGSEGV
Calling abort() instead of exit() will generate a core dump, allowing gdb to be used when the client crashes. This is desirable for the following reasons: 1. gdb can be used to inspect the call stack with far more detail than the our quick stack trace code, and also allows the access to the heap. 2. Our SIGSEGV handler is unable to use debug symbols for shared libraries, making it impossible to debug bugs involving drivers and similar.
