Description
From time to time Stem's integration tests crash tor (for example, #27500). When this happens our test output is pretty confusing since from the point of the crash onward we fail with generic 'cannot connect to tor' errors.
There's two issues here...
- Our test output doesn't indicate that tor crashed.
- When reporting tor segfaults we need its stacktrace, which is swallowed by our tests.
We should adjust our test's get_tor_controller() helper to check if tor is still alive, failing the test with a clearer message if it isn't and providing the tor stacktrace at the end of the test run.
