Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Currently when crash is occured, .dmp file is created and this file format can not be attached to issue. Not everyone knows (or able to understand) that solution is to zip this file.

So my suggestion is to zip this file by default and maybe attach it in crash handler.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Find where crash dumps are generated and modify the crash handler to zip the .dmp file before attaching.
