Summary

When anaconda manages to actually crash the python interpreter,
there should be a /tmp/anaconda.core containing the core dump
(per clumens, see calls to 'gcore' in isys.c). Let's upload it.
This might help us track down the mysterious occasional crashes
openQA seems to trigger (RHBZ #1289704)

Test Plan

Try and trigger a python crash and see if the
file got uploaded. Of course, I did an entire freaking run on
staging and for *ONCE* not one test hit the mysterious crash,
thanks Murphy. I did at least check that this doesn't break
a 'normal' failure, if the file isn't there things don't
explode.
