Bug Description
The 'apport' test checks to see if /var/crash is empty. If it is not, the test should provide any crash dumps from this directory as attachments so that bugs can be filed from the crash report.

Attaching everything in /var/crash is a straightforward solution to this; unfortunately, many of the files are rw------- root:root and since checkbox does not run as root, they cannot be read to be attached. This will require some mechanism for escalating privilege to attach these files.
