Michael Matloob cfb4e9bc4a cmd/dist: don't install tools that won't be shipped in distribution
We shouldn't be installing these tools because we will remove them in
distpack. Installing the tools will also prevent us from testing what
happens when the tools are missing.

The changes below this on the stack, CL 677775 (cmd/doc: build cmd/doc
directly into the go command) and CL 677636 (cmd/go/internal/cfg: fix
GOROOT setting when forcing host config) are needed for this change to
pass tests. The doc change is being done so we preserve the properties
in the tests that doc can be invoked without doing a build. It's not
strictly necessary (we could just remove the tests) but it's nice to
have. The GOROOT setting is a significant bug in switching the
configuration to host mode: the value of GOROOT wasn't being reset,
which caused issues for go commands built with trimpath, because
runtime.GOROOT wouldn't have the correct goroot value.

For #71867
