On Windows, the panic hook generated a minidump by calling `simulate_exception`, but that function only invokes the crash callback and then returns. Rust could therefore unwind a panicking background thread while leaving the rest of the application running. Abort unconditionally after minidump generation, matching the existing Linux and macOS behavior. The Windows-specific simulation still runs first so the crash sidecar can persist the exception context and panic metadata before the process terminates. Testing: - `cargo fmt -p crashes --check` - `cargo nextest run -p crashes` Release Notes: - Fixed Windows processes remaining alive after a background thread panic.
