We have a bunch of crashes on the GMPChild::RecvStartPlugin path. It would be good to break these out to understand why the process is failing to sanitize the plugin path.

We are currently seeing crashes in GMPChild::RecvStartPlugin because we
fail to sanitize the plugin path in some way. This patch will make
nightly crash slightly sooner than before so that we can understand why
the sanitization is actually failing.

Nit: https://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/rev/27a68283e532be19f1db26fcdb55d5a98b2f7be0#l1.136 should be GMP_DIAGNOSTIC_CRASH

You're right. Builds using "ac_add_options --as-milestone=release" in mozconfig fail because of this.
