Research direction

The report concerns Nemo 6.6.3 on Linux Mint 22.3 and includes stacktrace.txt; start by reading that trace and reproducing the crash by launching nemo from a console. Review the extension initialization messages around the free(): invalid pointer failure. Done means Nemo remains running after startup without the crash.
