Description
Would like to have Bug Reporter detect common crashes that we cannot fix such as Apple Intel graphics driver crashes, or Mac Qt display reconfiguration crashes and show advice to tell the user the cause of the crash so they can try to avoid it. Also this should reduce the number of bug report submissions.

Done.
Added messages for Apple graphics crash, Mac display config crash, and Linux Qt failed to initialize OpenGL.
More crash advice messages can be added to bug_reporter/crash_report.py in the _common_crash_message(traceback) function.
