I find that if we use exit(), we don't know where it goes wrong.

So if we switch to abort(), we will have the trace where it crashed.

abort() causes abnormal program termination and does not call functions registered with atexit() or destructors for objects with automatic storage duration.[[1]](https://en.cppreference.com/w/c/program/abort) It is generally used to immediately terminate the program when a fatal error occurs.

also, abort() will cause a signal, and it's up to application to decide what to do with the signal.

  • Does this PR change the input/output behaviour of a cryptographic algorithm (i.e., does it change known answer test values)? (If so, a version bump will be required from x.y.z to x.(y+1).0.)
  • Does this PR change the list of algorithms available -- either adding, removing, or renaming? Does this PR otherwise change an API? (If so, PRs in fully supported downstream projects dependent on these, i.e., oqs-provider will also need to be ready for review and merge by the time this is merged.)
