Travis: Add a macOS chutney job, but don't wait for it to finish

Since Travis macOS has IPv6 support (and Travis Linux does not), chutney
will now run its IPv6 networks as part of Travis CI.

But since chutney is slow, don't wait for the macOS chutney to finish.
(Travis have fixed the duplicate notification bug in fast_finish. So we
can use fast_finish and allow_failure to finish early. Unfortunately,
allow_failure also means we ignore failures in macOS chutney.)

Also make sure that we have:
* a compile on each platform, with each compiler,
* a check on each platform, and
* a check on each compiler.

Finally, sort builds: allow fail last, macOS first, slowest first.

Closes ticket 30860.
Closes ticket 31859 for 0.2.9.
