Subject: spec: clarify that break/continue do not work across function boundaries
X-Git-Tag: go1.3rc1~31
X-Git-Url: http://www.git.cypherpunks.su/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=94849d5a78009dcaafbde2847cc0a27f53aa3723;p=gostls13.git

spec: clarify that break/continue do not work across function boundaries

Also made it extra clear for goto statements (even though label scopes
are already limited to the function defining a label).

Fixes #8040.
