cmd/compile: disable memory profiling when not in use

The default value of runtime.MemProfileRate
is non-zero, which means that a small portion
of allocations go through the (slow) profiled
allocation path.

This is never useful in the compiler
unless the -memprofile flag has been passed.
I noticed this when samples from mprof.go
showed up in a compiler cpu pprof listing.
