Bug report

Bug description:

I've reproduced the issue reported in https://discuss.python.org/t/tachyon-97-error-rate/107619

The issue is caused by:

linetable = read_py_bytes(unwinder,
GET_MEMBER(uintptr_t, code_object, unwinder->debug_offsets.code_object.linetable), 4096);

The linetable for HttpCli.tx_browser and HttpCli.run is above 4096:

The 4096 limit is too small even for our stdlib:

Reproduction

Using real file from stdlib:

import os, _remote_debugging

src = open("/Users/maurycy/work/cpython/Lib/html/entities.py").read()
src += "\n_remote_debugging.RemoteUnwinder(os.getpid()).get_stack_trace()\n"
exec(compile(src, "entities.py", "exec"))
print("OK")

We get:
