Description
The Python faulthandler module can write the Python stack traceback to a file when a fatal signal is received (segfault, fpe, bus error, ...). Enable this and check for such crash logs on startup. This will help understand Mac crashes where we currently only get the C/C++ stack. And it will enable getting crash reports on Windows and Linux where we currently have no mechanism to get crash reports.
