runtime: accept GOTRACEBACK=crash to mean 'crash after panic'

This provides a way to generate core dumps when people need them.
The settings are:

        GOTRACEBACK=0  no traceback on panic, just exit
        GOTRACEBACK=1  default - traceback on panic, then exit
        GOTRACEBACK=2  traceback including runtime frames on panic, then exit
        GOTRACEBACK=crash traceback including runtime frames on panic, then crash

Fixes #3257.

+Package runtime contains operations that interact with Go's runtime system,
+such as functions to control goroutines. It also includes the low-level type information
+used by the reflect package; see reflect's documentation for the programmable
+interface to the run-time type system.
+
+Environment Variables
+
+The following environment variables ($name or %name%, depending on the host
+operating system) control the run-time behavior of Go programs. The meanings
+and use may change from release to release.
+
+The GOGC variable sets the initial garbage collection target percentage.
+A collection is triggered when the ratio of freshly allocated data to live data
+remaining after the previous collection reaches this percentage. The default
+is GOGC=100. Setting GOGC=off disables the garbage collector entirely.
+The runtime/debug package's SetGCPercent function allows changing this
+percentage at run time. See http://golang.org/pkg/runtime/debug/#SetGCPercent.
+
+The GOGCTRACE variable controls debug output from the garbage collector.
+Setting GOGCTRACE=1 causes the garbage collector to emit a single line to standard
+error at each collection, summarizing the amount of memory collected and the
+length of the pause. Setting GOGCTRACE=2 emits the same summary but also
+repeats each collection.
+
+The GOMAXPROCS variable limits the number of operating system threads that
+can execute user-level Go code simultaneously. There is no limit to the number of threads
+that can be blocked in system calls on behalf of Go code; those do not count against
+the GOMAXPROCS limit. This package's GOMAXPROCS function queries and changes
+the limit.
+
+The GOTRACEBACK variable controls the amount of output generated when a Go
+program fails due to an unrecovered panic or an unexpected runtime condition.
+By default, a failure prints a stack trace for every extant goroutine, eliding functions
+internal to the run-time system, and then exits with exit code 2.
+If GOTRACEBACK=0, the per-goroutine stack traces are omitted entirely.
+If GOTRACEBACK=1, the default behavior is used.
+If GOTRACEBACK=2, the per-goroutine stack traces include run-time functions.
+If GOTRACEBACK=crash, the per-goroutine stack traces include run-time functions,
+and if possible the program crashes in an operating-specific manner instead of
+exiting. For example, on Unix systems, the program raises SIGABRT to trigger a
+core dump.
+
+The GOARCH, GOOS, GOPATH, and GOROOT environment variables complete
+the set of Go environment variables. They influence the building of Go programs
+(see http://golang.org/cmd/go and http://golang.org/pkg/go/build).
+GOARCH, GOOS, and GOROOT are recorded at compile time and made available by
+constants or functions in this package, but they do not influence the execution
+of the run-time system.
