Show C backtrace appropriately at core dump for GCC 8 or later
When ruby is compiled by GCC 8 or later, some frames of C level
backtrace information lacks.
```
$ ./miniruby -e '1.times { Process.kill(:SEGV, $$) }'

Details:
In short, it is an uninitialized variable bug.
Until GCC 7, all function locations are represented by a pair of
DW_AT_low_pc and DW_AT_high_pc in DWARF information.
But since GCC 8, some functions are split to multiple chunks, which are
represented by DW_AT_ranges.
DW_AT_ranges are represented as offsets from a base address.
According to DWARF specification, it is the base address of the
compilation unit, but GCC seems to use zero as default.
The function "di_read_cu" in addr2line.c had a comment about the fact.
However, the base address wasn't initialized as zero.
