Issue #10990: Prevent tests from clobbering a set trace function.
Many tests simply didn't care if they unset a pre-existing trace function. This made test coverage impossible. This patch fixes various tests to put back any pre-existing trace function. It also introduces test.support.no_tracing as a decorator which will temporarily unset the trace function for tests which simply fail otherwise. Thanks to Kristian Vlaardingerbroek for helping to find the cause of various trace function unsets.
