Some systems may provide backtrace() in libc but for some reason
not provide any frames when attempting to use it.
On those systems the fatal_signal_init() function currently logs
this debug message: "Capturing of dummy backtrace has failed."
A consequence of this logging may be false negative test results.
Logging the fact that backtrace() does not work has limited value
on a production system and I propose we drop it.
Fixes: 759a29dc2d97 ("backtrace: Extend the backtrace functionality.")
