For reference, It's not entirely clear whether this is an upstream or downstream issue, but I'm leaning on the former. The source seems to indicate that chrome_crash_handler is meant only for an official (branded) Chromium build [3][4]; This is backed up by [5], which however has much obsolete stuff.
Relevant upstream reports: [1] Issue 1377365: Chromium dev fails to launch: "posix_spawn: No such file or directory". [2] Issue 1176772: Land Crashpad for Chromium-Linux. As a matter of fact, if I manually copy chrome_crash_handler (from somewhere else) into the snap, Chromium launches normally. Unfortunately simply disabling posix_spawn for chrome_crash_handler doesn't work, as already detected here. There is some IPC[6] involved and the other end — the client process in the diagram, I reckon — aborts.
