Script for "one-click" opening of coredumps.
It extracts the build-id from the coredump, retrieves metadata for that
build, downloads the binary package, the source code and finally
launches the dbuild container, with everything ready to load the
coredump.
The script is idempotent: running it after the prepartory steps will
re-use what is already donwloaded.
The script is not trying to provide a debugging environment that caters
to all the different ways and preferences of debugging. Instead, it just
sets up a minimalistic environment for debugging, while providing
opportunities for the user to customization according to their
preferred.
I'm not entirely sure, coredumps from master branch will work, but we
can address this later when we confirm they don't.
Example:
$ ~/ScyllaDB/scylla/worktree0/scripts/open-coredump.sh ./core.scylla.113.bac3650b616f4f09a4d1ab160574b6a5.4349.1669185225000000000000
Build id: 5009658b834aaf68970135bfc84f964b66ea4dee
Matching build is scylla-5.0.5 0.20221009.5a97a1060 release-x86_64

To examine the coredump with gdb:
$ gdb -x scylla-gdb.py -ex 'set directories /src/scylla' --core ./core.scylla.113.bac3650b616f4f09a4d1ab160574b6a5.4349.1669185225000000000000 /opt/scylladb/libexec/scylla

Good luck!
