stp: generate coredump and exit upon SIGABRT received

Previous code relied on abort() switching sigaction to SIG_FDL +
retriggering SIGABRT in case the signal handler returns, which would
then generate the coredump + terminate the process.
However, if a SIGABRT is received from somewhere else (kill -SIGABRT),
then the process would print the talloc report and continue running,
which is not desired.
