cmd/go, misc: switch from breakpoint to SIGUSR2

The iOS test harness has set a breakpoint early in the life of Go
programs so that it can change the current working directory using
information only available from the host debugger. Somewhere in the
upgrade to iOS 10 / XCode 8.2, breakpoints stopped working. This
may be an LLDB bug, or a bug in the ios-deploy LLDB scripts, it's
not clear.

Work around the problem by giving up on breakpoints. Instead, early
in the life of every test binary built for iOS, send (and ignore) a
SIGUSR2 signal. The debugger will catch this, giving the script
go_darwin_arm_exec a chance to change the working directory.

For the iOS builders.

Binary Distribution Notes

If you have just untarred a binary Go distribution, you need to set the environment variable $GOROOT to the full path of the go directory (the one containing this file). You can omit the variable if you unpack it into /usr/local/go, or if you rebuild from sources by running all.bash (see doc/install-source.html). You should also add the Go binary directory $GOROOT/bin to your shell's path.

For example, if you extracted the tar file into $HOME/go, you might put the following in your .profile:

export GOROOT=$HOME/go
export PATH=$PATH:$GOROOT/bin

See https://golang.org/doc/install or doc/install.html for more details.
