A --guard-malloc option to run-webkit-tests could be useful

Otherwise launching DumpRenderTree under libgmalloc is rather painful.

I don't think we want the diff tool to run under GuardMalloc. I suggest doing
this in a way that only affects the test tools.

Darin asked that this env setting be localized to the tool launch.  I'll
investigate how to do that with open2()
