JDK-8242181 - [Linux] Show source information when printing native stack traces in hs_err files
Description
The call stack is maybe the most important part of an hs-err file. We recently introduced printing of source information (https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8242181) which is nice but makes stack printing more vulnerable for two reasons:
- we may crash due to a programmer error (e.g. https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8293344)
- we may timeout on very slow machines/file systems when the source information are parsed from the debug info (we have seen those problems in the past)
