/**
* android_set_abort_message() sets the abort message passed to
* [debuggerd](https://source.android.com/devices/tech/debug/native-crash)
* for inclusion in any crash.
*
* This is meant for use by libraries that deliberately abort so that they can
* provide an explanation. It is used within bionic to implement assert() and
* all FORTIFY and fdsan failures.
*
* The message appears directly in logcat at the time of crash. It will
* also be added to both the tombstone proto in the crash_detail field, and
* in the tombstone text format.
*
* Tombstone proto definition:
* https://cs.android.com/android/platform/superproject/main/+/main:system/core/debuggerd/proto/tombstone.proto
*
* An app can get hold of these for any `REASON_CRASH_NATIVE` instance of
* `android.app.ApplicationExitInfo`.
* https://developer.android.com/reference/android/app/ApplicationExitInfo#getTraceInputStream()
*
* The given message is copied at the time this function is called, and does
* not need to be valid until the crash actually happens, but typically this
* function is called immediately before aborting. See <android/crash_detail.h>
* for API more suited to the use case where the caller doesn't _expect_ a
* crash but would like to see the information _if_ a crash happens.
