donor v0.3.39 — a crash now writes its own reason down

No protocol change. No new opcode. No behaviour change while connected.
This release adds a crash log, keeps symbols in the build, and moves the
GUI's three page links to the site's own domain.

Why

On 2026-10-18 the Windows donor died with exception 0xc0000409 (a Rust
abort) two seconds after the brain it was attached to went dark. Windows kept
a dump; the dump held no message; the binary was stripped, so the fault
offset named nothing; and the GUI build detaches from the console, so the
panic text Rust prints to stderr went nowhere. A donor that dies without a
word cannot be fixed.

What changed

before after
panic / abort reason stderr only — lost in the GUI build <data dir>/unity-donor/crash.log — time, version, message, source location, backtrace; appended, never truncated
symbols in the release build strip = true (no .pdb, offsets unnameable) line tables kept (debug = "line-tables-only"), so a dump maps to a file and line
GUI links (legend / dashboard / leaderboard) https://unity-lab-ai.github.io/If-Only-I-Had-A-Brain/html/… https://theunitybrain.com/html/…

The data dir is the same one that holds settings.json and donor-id
(%APPDATA%\unity-donor on Windows, ~/.local/share/unity-donor on Linux).
The hook runs before anything else in main, so a panic anywhere — the GPU
worker, the WebSocket loop, the GUI — lands in the file before the process
unwinds or aborts.

Nothing else

Same wire contract, same capability gates, same PROD_SERVER
(wss://dumbass.tailec58e0.ts.net/ws), same self-exit-when-silent behaviour.
The brain's DREAM_MIN_DONOR_VERSION floor is unchanged (0.3.26).
