Support debugging crashes from binaries invoked via shell scripts.

[RokeJulianLockhart]

Both firefox ¹ and steamwebhelper ² are bash shell scripts:

RokeJulianLockhart@SNRW3Q:~$ command -v steam
/usr/bin/steam
RokeJulianLockhart@SNRW3Q:~$ command -v firefox
/usr/bin/firefox
RokeJulianLockhart@SNRW3Q:~$ file /usr/bin/steam
/usr/bin/steam: symbolic link to /usr/lib/steam/bin_steam.sh

RokeJulianLockhart@SNRW3Q:~$ file /usr/bin/firefox
/usr/bin/firefox: Bourne-Again shell script, ASCII text executable
RokeJulianLockhart@SNRW3Q:~$ file $(readlink /usr/bin/steam)
/usr/lib/steam/bin_steam.sh: Bourne-Again shell script, ASCII text executable

However, although neither steam nor firefox can be debugged by gdb (at least, not without trickery that I'm ultimately unfamiliar with), firefox can be debugged by gnome-abrt, whereas steam (and its more common crash blame receipient, steamwebhelper) cannot, as the undermentioned demonstrates:

Specifically, the undermentioned error appears to prevent it:

This obviously isn't useful either, and that's not surprising, because it's basically a frontend to gdb.
