Every assert() includes a __FILE__ constant string to RODATA which can be quite large as it includes the complete path as well as the filename. Move that string into PMEM, and update the postmortem to work with either PMEM or RAM strings for dumping abort/assert/exception information.

The amount of memory saved will vary depending on the number of asserts() in the code and the directory in which you build the tree, but on my own applications it saves around 300-500 bytes of additional RAM.
