Revert "crypto/rand: add randcrash=0 GODEBUG"

A GODEBUG is actually a security risk here: most programs will start to
ignore errors from Read because they can't happen (which is the intended
behavior), but then if a program is run with GODEBUG=randcrash=0 it will
use a partial buffer in case an error occurs, which may be catastrophic.

Note that the proposal was accepted without the GODEBUG, which was only
added later.

This (partially) reverts CL 608435. I kept the tests.

Updates #66821

@ -168,11 +168,6 @@ For Go 1.24, it now defaults to multipathtcp="2", thus
enabled by default on listerners. Using multipathtcp="0" reverts to the
pre-Go 1.24 behavior.
Go 1.24 changed [`crypto/rand.Read`](/pkg/crypto/rand/#Read) to crash the
program on any error. This setting is controlled by the `randcrash` setting.
For Go 1.24 it defaults to `randcrash=1`.
Using `randcrash=0` reverts to the pre-Go 1.24 behavior.
### Go 1.23
Go 1.23 changed the channels created by package time to be unbuffered
