Error on broken pipe but do not backtrace or ICE

Windows will report a broken pipe as a normal error which in turn `println!` will panic on. Currently this causes rustc to produce a backtrace and ICE. However, this is not a bug with rustc so a backtrace is overly verbose and ultimately unhelpful to the user.

Kind of fixes rust-lang#98700. Although this is admittedly a bit of a hack because at panic time all we have is a string to inspect. On zulip it was suggested that libstd might someday provide a way to indicate a soft panic but that day isn't today.
