Notes of deprecation:
https://www.electronjs.org/docs/api/web-contents#event-crashed-deprecated

This event is superceded by the render-process-gone event which contains more information about why the render process dissapeared. It isn't always because it crashed. The killed boolean can be replaced by checking reason === 'killed' when you switch to that event.

Current sentry-electron version handle the event here:

To support older and present versions the proposed update would be to handle both crashed and render-process-gone event here.
