The backtrace() function and execinfo.h are GNU extensions available
in glibc but not in non-glibc C libraries such as musl. Building KVM
selftests with musl-gcc fails with:

  lib/assert.c:9:10: fatal error: execinfo.h: No such file or directory

Guard the inclusion of execinfo.h under #ifdef __GLIBC__, and wrap
all backtrace() usage under the same guard with a fallback message
for non-glibc builds indicating that stack traces are not available.

Unlike the approach of adding a weak stub for backtrace(), this
explicitly handles the non-glibc case rather than silently providing
an empty implementation.
