Include both the IP address and port number on debugger snap dumps..

Customer is requesting that debugger dumps include both the IP address and port number on debugger snap dumps..
This information would be helpful any debugger error in order to assist in determining what they may have been tracing
at the time.
If we knew the IP address and port number , we could post process IP trace and get an idea what they were doing at the time of the error.

On dumps like these, it would help tremendously if they would also put out the IP address of the user at the time of the SNAP.
