Handle crashes #2

Closed erikhuck closed 5 months ago

The tracker should be able to crash gracefully, meaning it should be able to catch uncaught exceptions thrown within the context and report the usage results collected prior to the crash. Meaning the context should not have to complete entirely for the results to be available and reported.

I realize this is not actually possible because a thread cannot catch an exception in a different thread because the two threads are running different code. It'll be up to the user to error handle and report resource usage, if they please, in an except or finally block.

Maybe give an example in the end-user documentation then.
