MINOR: [CI] Upload JVM crash files when the Binaries job fails (#1428)
## What's Changed
When a test JVM crashes in the RC workflow's Binaries job, the log says
only `Error occurred in starting fork, check output in log`, `Corrupted
channel by directly writing to native stream in forked JVM N` and
`Aborted (core dumped)`. The details stay on the runner. HotSpot writes
`hs_err_pid<pid>.log` to the module directory, and surefire saves the
crash banner the JVM printed to stdout in
`target/surefire-reports/*.dumpstream`. The job uploads neither.
For example, the Binaries job on #1419 failed twice this way ([attempt
1](https://github.com/apache/arrow-java/actions/runs/41233658912/job/124634336074),
[attempt
2](https://github.com/apache/arrow-java/actions/runs/41233658912/job/124888186799)).
All 46 arrow-dataset tests passed, then the JVM that had run 35 of them
aborted, and nothing in the log shows where it crashed.
This adds a step that uploads those files as a
`binaries-jvm-crash-files` artifact when the job fails. It uses the same
pinned `actions/upload-artifact` as the job's other upload steps.
`if-no-files-found: ignore` keeps the step quiet when a failure isn't a
crash.
I checked the patterns against a local arrow-dataset crash, which left
`dataset/hs_err_pid<pid>.log` and
`dataset/target/surefire-reports/<timestamp>-jvmRun<N>.dumpstream`.
actionlint reports nothing new in `rc.yml`. The step runs only when the
job fails, so this PR's own CI run won't exercise it.
