Description
Add a crash reporter to Windows/OSX/Linux builds of APM Planner
For OSX see https://www.plcrashreporter.org which has extensive testing (used by Hockeyapp.net)
For Windows see http://hellstein.pl/wordpress/2014/03/03/adding-crash-reporter-to-qt-application-on-windows/
For Linux see for info http://stackoverflow.com/questions/18265/getting-stack-traces-on-unix-systems-automatically (sure we can find something better)
a multi-platfrom solution https://code.google.com/p/google-breakpad/ Used by Mozilla see http://kb.mozillazine.org/Breakpad
Will also need a server to post the data too. ;)
Please post suggestion & comments.

Research direction
No files, tests, or entry points are named. Review the Windows, OSX, and Linux build setup, then compare the platform-specific references and Google Breakpad option in the issue; the work is complete only when a chosen approach and crash-data posting server are defined for all three builds.
