Make stacktraces in exceptions more similar to BEAM's stacktraces
When an exception was generated from interpreted code, the stacktrace would not look exactly like BEAM's stacktraces. There would generally be fewer entries (never more than three), and the top entry would always have MFAs with the actual arguments (rather than the arity). There are two good reasons for making the stacktraces as similar as possible: * Code that examines a stacktrace can behave differently in the interpreted and BEAM code if the stacktraces are different. * It is easier to test the debugger if test suites for other applications (such as the emulator) can be run with the debugger with as few modifications as possible.
