Claude 6e526fa6b9 Log the faulting host thread, pc and backtrace of a native crash on Linux
A SIGSEGV on the Steam Frame logged only the guest state and 'Host stack
trace unavailable on this platform'. With glibc the handler now names the
faulting thread, its pc and lr, and a backtrace, each as module + offset for
addr2line. The Dawn provider also says when a local package (--dawn-package)
replaces the download instead of printing the URL it does not fetch.
