> We add a small feature, which prints a warning if user explicitly requests `CreateCoredumpOnCrash`, but it's disabled on the os level.
> 
> Example:
> 
> 
> # ulimit -c 0                                                         
> # ./build/xcode/build/jdk/bin/java -XX:+CreateCoredumpOnCrash -version
> OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM warning: CreateCoredumpOnCrash specified, but Core dumps have been disabled. To enable core dumping, try "ulimit -c unlimited" before starting Java again
> openjdk version "24-internal" 2025-03-18
> OpenJDK Runtime Environment (build 24-internal-adhoc.gerard.jdk)
> OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 24-internal-adhoc.gerard.jdk, mixed mode, sharing)

> # ulimit -c 1024                                                      
> # ./build/xcode/build/jdk/bin/java -XX:+CreateCoredumpOnCrash -version
