Subject: [PATCH] [ci] Disable backward_cpp on macOS (#7145)

Related Issue: #7140

### Brief Summary

On macOS, when test worker hard fails (abort, EXC_BAD_ACCESS, etc.),
backward_cpp's signal handler will re-raise the signal and catch it
afterwards, make it an infinite loop, at the moment the offending
process can't be terminated easily (except a SIGKILL), eat CPU cycles
and blocks test runner.
