Fangrui Song d531bf5b5c PrintStackTrace: don't symbolize if LLVM_DISABLE_SYMBOLIZATION is set
See http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-dev/2017-June/113975.html for a related previous discussion.
Many tools install signal handlers to print stack traces and optionally
symbolize the addresses with an external program 'llvm-symbolizer' (when
searching for 'llvm-symbolizer', the directory containg the executable
is preferred over PATH).

'llvm-symbolizer' can be slow if the executable is large and/or if
llvm-symbolizer' itself is under-optimized. For example, my 'llvm-lto2' from a
-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug build is 443MiB. The 'llvm-symbolizer' from the same
build takes ~2s to symbolize it. (An optimized 'llvm-symbolizer' takes 0.34s).
A crashed clang may take more than 5s to symbolize a stack trace.

If a test file has several `not --crash` RUN lines. It can be very slow in a Debug build.
This patch makes `not --crash` set an environment variable to suppress symbolization.
This is similar to D33804 which uses a command line option.
I pick 'symbolization' instead of 'symbolication' because the former is
used much more commonly and its stem matches 'llvm-symbolizer'.

Also set LLVM_DISABLE_CRASH_REPORT=1, which is currently only applicable on
`__APPLE__`.
