Bug: On crash drive fills up (Linux) #1773

Description

Describe the bug

When p2ce crashes, specifically when the pop-up to fill out a crash report shows, systemd-coredump writes several gigabytes to my drive, often accumulating to 30-50 gb a crash.
I tried to take a video, but due to the nature of the bug filling up my drive I am unable to.
Using iotop, specifically "sudo iotop -oPa", I traced the multiple gigabyte writes to the command "systemd-coredump"
It seems to write when I type into the text box in the crash report window along as when it first pops up, this behavior could be do to iotop refreshing on keypress, however.
I am running Linux Mint with the recommended proton branch on AMD hardware (both cpu and gpu).

To Reproduce

Cause a crash (I was able to consistently by spamming quick load)
Simply type in the crash report pop up window, no need to submit a crash report or anything.

Issue Map

Seems to be any, it has happened to me on both community maps and the Portal 1 campaign.

Expected Behavior

systemd-coredump should not write this much to my drive.

Operating System

Linux Mint, Linux kernel 6.17.0-20-generic
