runtime: partial stack trace should print that it's partial #7180

Description

When getting a stack overflow, say due to an endless recursion, the stack trace may only
contain the top-most n stack frames, and eventually abruptly ends in something like:

code.google.com/p/go.tools/go/types.WriteType(0x210de8bd0, 0x0, 0x221065d9f0,
0x210ea3bd0)

0x2112a7dc0)

    /Users/gri/go/src/pkg/testing/testing.go:471 +0x978

goroutine 16 [chan receive]:
testing.RunTests(0x2f1680, 0x596ce0, 0x1a, 0x1a, 0x0)

exit status 2

If the stack frame on top of the one indicated via "created by
testing.RunTests" is not the first one invoked, there should be some indication of
that. For instance with ... as in:


code.google.com/p/go.tools/go/types.WriteType(0x210de8bd0, 0x0, 0x221065d9f0,
0x210ea3bd0)
