delete unreliable test of Carp crash avoidance
rt52610_crash.t was introduced by commit 4764858cb80e76fdba33cc1b3be8fcdef26df754, and is predicated on the mythical effectiveness of that commit's code change in avoiding stack-not-refcounted crashes, an effectiveness also expressed in that commit's very inaccurate commit message. In fact the code change will avoid *some* crashes, but cannot guarantee to avoid crashing in any particular situation of the kind that it targets. It is therefore not possible to have a test for it avoiding a stack-not-refcounted crash, with any expectation that the test would reliably pass or even reliably avoid crashing. rt52610_crash.t must therefore be deleted.
