Some applications may explicitly set Error.stackTraceLimit = undefined. In this case it is not safe to assume new Error().stack is available.

Error.stackTraceLimit = undefined.In this case it is not safe to assume
new Error().stackis available using the!operator.Before this patch, using grpc-js in this situation when an Error occurs or when a trace is needed may result in uncaught exceptions crashing the application.
One thing I considered is that often stack traces are indented by four spaces by the JS engine such as node. My default message for clarity is just
no track trace availableversus using the magic number of spaces. I'm torn on the right solution here, but I personal prefer the clarity of a plain string rather than assuming our environment is one which adds random spaces to make CLI focused output prettier.
