profiler: Enable Share button for profiles that never finish symbolication

The UI blocks sharing profiles that are not symbolicated as users clicked share too early. We have reports of failed symbolication (Bug 1414383 and maybe other unknown reasons) for which users can never share profiles for investigations.

Ideas:

Cancel button in “Symbolicating …” overlay. Might appear after 10s to prevent accidental clicking.
Enable Share button after 15s symbolication.
Double-confirmation prompt when Share (… will users read this?)

I don’t see a problem with having it always available, that way it behaves more deterministically for the user, and is probably a simpler implementation.

I think my preference would be to have the following behavior:

Surface a button in the symbolication dialog that says “Cancel Symbolication”
Once this button is clicked, the upload/save dialog is re-enabled.
