#749 introduced an issue where CI on urbit/urbit suddenly became dog slow. This was eventually traced down to the fact that jets registered by the ivory pill in the serf were extremely slow to check for because of missing structural sharing. The only reason to install the ivory pill in the serf is to have stacktraces when arvo fails to compile in CI. Removing that feature is acceptable to keep things moving for now.

I removed the ivory pill from the serf in #750, but I missed this code
path in _mars_do_boot. This code only ever runs if the process has been
killed during initial boot and we have to replay. The older ivory pill
being installed breaks the structural sharing for jet registrations,
causing ships that crash during boot to perform extremely poorly until
they get melded.
