Due to various bugs in tests clean up code (usually), if host system is
misconfigured, it happens that test_progs will just crash in the middle of
running a test with little to no indication of where and why the crash
happened. For cases where coredump is not readily available (e.g., inside
a CI), it's very helpful to have a stack trace, which lead to crash, to be
printed out. This change adds a signal handler that will capture and print out
symbolized backtrace:
$ sudo ./test_progs -t mmap
test_mmap:PASS:skel_open_and_load 0 nsec
test_mmap:PASS:bss_mmap 0 nsec
test_mmap:PASS:data_mmap 0 nsec
Caught signal #11!
Stack trace:
./test_progs(crash_handler+0x18)[0x42a888]
/lib64/libpthread.so.0(+0xf5d0)[0x7f2aab5175d0]

Unfortunately, glibc's symbolization support is unable to symbolize static
functions, only global ones will be present in stack trace. But it's still a
step forward without adding extra libraries to get a better symbolization.
