Major Description
When resolving bug reports, sometimes is not immediately obvious which distro is in use. Sometimes core dumps are provided, and with the right disto, this is resolvable without further user questioning.
Linux distros have converged on /etc/os-release to communicate the release information in a standard form.
There's sometimes up to 22 lines of information in this file, which is a bit verbose.
Looking at the samples in the following urls, 3 lines appears sufficient to communicate distro and version across a significant set of distros.
So lets include these in the crash handler information.

Resolved RPM side with pushing env variables via CMAKE_C{,XX}_LAUNCHER.
looks ok. please, verify that buildbot builds packages (both deb and rpm) with elfs that contain that additional info
Done - for the versions that support packages notes, packages notes are there. Otherwise no change.
RPM package notes stalled on https://gitlab.kitware.com/cmake/cmake/-/issues/26583 - env spec file needs env variable set but basic CMake targets don't have them set.
