On AIX, all externally linked programs call _rt0_ppc64_aix_lib,
as seen in runtime/cgo/gcc_aix_ppc64.c. The idea is that we
only do the library initialization is isarchive is set.
However, before this CL, AIX programs would call libpreinit
before checking isarchive. The effect was that signals were
initialized twice. That caused the signal code to record that
all signals had an existing forwarding address, namely the
Go signal handler that was always installed. This caused signal
forwarding to enter an infinite loop. This caused, for example,
"go test os" to hang forever when running TestStdPipe.
Fixes #76081
