Include a back trace in problem report technical details.

This adds a dependcy on libunwind for generating the back trace.

* src/CMakeLists.txt: Require libunwind-generic package and libunwind
  VAPI. Update docs and debian/control with new dependencies.

* src/engine/api/geary-problem-report.vala (ProblemReport): Generate a
  stack trace in the default constructor if an error is specified.

* src/client/components/main-window-info-bar.vala
  (MainWindowInfoBar::format_details): Include stack trafe from problem
  report in output if present.

* ui/main-window-info-bar.ui: Add a ScrolledWindow around the TextView
  since the details could now be quite large.

* bindings/vapi/libunwind.vapi: Add bindings for libunwind courtesy
  Guillaume Poirier-Morency, add Error enum.
