Thanks for your report. This crash has been fixed in -current not very
long ago, see https://marc.info/?l=openbsd-cvs&m=167119815124868&w=2

The crash probably triggers because you do not have the iwm-firmware
package installed.
Connect to the internet in some way without iwm, and run fw_update; this
should add firmware for iwm.  Now iwm should work.
