[sr-dev] [kamailio/kamailio] core on broken config (#2599)

[Daniel-Constantin Mierla]

You have to install debugging symbols to have any useful lead. On the other hand, problems are startup can appear any time, trying to catch everything wrong there could bring a lot of complexity.

For an interpreter that focuses to be fast at runtime and offer a quick restart, trying to cover all the errors at startup that can crash (instead of a smoother shut down) may bring costs in performance that can impact the restart with good configs. So these two benefits have to be balanced: 

  * smooth shutdown on starting with broken config
  * quick start with valid config

We still have to see what is the cause of the crash here, just saying it needs proper consideration of benefits vs drawbacks.
