kselftest/coredump: reintroduce null pointer dereference
Commit 673a55cc49 replaced the null pointer dereference used in
crashing_child() with __builtin_trap to address the following LLVM warnings:

 coredump_test_helpers.c:59:6: warning: indirection of non-volatile null pointer will be deleted, not trap [-Wnull-dereference]
 coredump_test_helpers.c:59:6: note: consider using __builtin_trap() or qualifying pointer with 'volatile'

All coredump tests expect crashing_child() to result in a SIGSEGV. However, the
behavior of __builtin_trap is architecture-dependent. On x86 it yields SIGILL,
on aarch64 SIGTRAP. Given that neither of those signals are SIGSEGV, both
coredump_socket_test and coredump_socket_protocol_test are currently failing:

 get_pidfd_info: mask=0xd7, coredump_mask=0x5, coredump_signal=5
 socket_coredump_signal_sigsegv: coredump_signal=5, expected SIGSEGV=11

Qualify the pointer with volatile instead of calling __builtin_trap to fix the
tests.
