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.
