There's no need for fatalError() to try to generate its own backtraces when the runtime's backtracer is enabled. Not only is the code it uses more fragile but it also doesn't support async or inline frames and it can't look-up symbols properly either.

@swift-ci Please smoke test

The Runtime/backtrace test is a test of the fatalError() backtracer,
which gets turned off when we have the new backtracer enabled.  So,
to make this test work, we need to turn off the new backtracer.

When backtracing is disabled, don't try to refer to
`_swift_backtraceSettings`.
