runtime/cgo, cmd/dist: turn off exc_bad_access handler by default

App Store policy requires programs do not reference the exc_server
symbol. (Some public forum threads show that Unity ran into this
several years ago and it is a hard policy rule.) While some research
suggests that I could write my own version of exc_server, the
expedient course is to disable the exception handler by default.

Go programs only need it when running under lldb, which is primarily
used by tests. So enable the exception handler in cmd/dist when we
are running the tests.

Fixes #10646

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.
