RFR: JDK-8296907: VMError: add optional callstacks, siginfo for secondary errors [v3]

> To aid in analyzing secondary errors during error reporting, it would be useful to see their callstacks for secondary errors. But printing callstacks during error reporting is unsafe - if we get a second crash or assert, it will cause infinite recursion and interrupt error reporting. Also, the hs-err file would be quite verbose. Therefore this feature is optional and limited to debug builds.

> - adds optional callstack/siginfo printing via debug-only switch `-XX:+ErrorLogSecondaryErrorDetails`.
> - fixes a bug in secondary error handling where we would use the global scratch buffer recursively (via stringStream); that could lead to confusing output since it is used by the error log stream already. We can print directly to that one instead.
> - Removed a stray newline from print_native_stack to clean output.
> - added regression testing for this feature. I removed my name from the test since we don't do this anymore.
> - added clarifying comments to the test and code
> - added SAP copyright to the regression test (we introduced it years ago for JDK-8065895)

> Output looks like this:
> 
> 
> $ java ... -XX:+ErrorLogSecondaryErrorDetails

> will produce, for secondary errors, siginfo and call stack.
