Bug 2008684 - Add the exception message when libclang is inadequate. r=firefox-build-system-reviewers,sergesanspaille
The typical message would be:
DEBUG: /path/to/.mozbuild/clang/lib/libclang.so: undefined symbol: clang_getAddressSpace
But in some cases, it can be something like:
DEBUG: libLLVM.so.21.1: cannot enable executable stack as shared object requires: Invalid argument
which is actually more useful for debugging purposes than the generic
error saying libclang is too old.
