1434378 - Track startup crashes in error_aggregates and experiment_error_aggregates

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Data Platform and Tools Graveyard :: Datasets: Error Aggregates, enhancement, P1)

Description

It would be good to track startup crashes seperately from main crashes, as they are much more serious. Definitely something we would also want to track in Mission Control.

Mauro wrote up a PR to add this data to crash_aggregates for bug 1306013, could probably use some of the work there as inspiration:

Should main_crashes[1] metric include startup crashes?

That probably makes the most sense for a first pass. I don't think we care about tracking non-startup crashes as a seperate entity from main crashes. CCing a few people from relman who might have opinions on this so they can chime in if they feel like it.
