[dev.cc] cmd/8g: work around "out of fixed registers" on Plan 9
This change works around the "out of fixed registers"
issue with the Plan 9 C compiler on 386, introduced by
the Bits change to uint64 in CL 169060043.
The purpose of this CL is to be able to properly
follow the conversion of the Plan 9 runtime to Go
on the Plan 9 builders.
This CL could be reverted once the Go compilers will
be converted to Go.
Thanks to Nick Owens for investigating this issue.

[dev.power64] 6g,8g: remove unnecessary and incorrect reg use scanning
Previously, the 6g and 8g registerizers scanned for used
registers beyond the end of a region being considered for
registerization. This ancient artifact was copied from the C
compilers, where it was probably necessary to track implicitly
used registers. In the Go compilers it's harmless (because it
can only over-restrict the set of available registers), but no
longer necessary because the Go compilers correctly track
register use/set information. The consequences of this extra
scan were (at least) that 1) we would not consider allocating
the AX register if there was a deferproc call in the future
because deferproc uses AX as a return register, so we see the
use of AX, but don't track that AX is set by the CALL, and 2)
we could not consider allocating the DX register if there was
a MUL in the future because MUL implicitly sets DX and (thanks
to an abuse of copyu in this code) we would also consider DX
used.
This commit fixes these problems by nuking this code.

[dev.cc] runtime: delete scalararg, ptrarg; rename onM to systemstack
Scalararg and ptrarg are not "signal safe".
Go code filling them out can be interrupted by a signal,
and then the signal handler runs, and if it also ends up
in Go code that uses scalararg or ptrarg, now the old
values have been smashed.
For the pieces of code that do need to run in a signal handler,
we introduced onM_signalok, which is really just onM
except that the _signalok is meant to convey that the caller
asserts that scalarg and ptrarg will be restored to their old
values after the call (instead of the usual behavior, zeroing them).
Scalararg and ptrarg are also untyped and therefore error-prone.
Go code can always pass a closure instead of using scalararg
and ptrarg; they were only really necessary for C code.
And there's no more C code.
For all these reasons, delete scalararg and ptrarg, converting
the few remaining references to use closures.
Once those are gone, there is no need for a distinction between
onM and onM_signalok, so replace both with a single function
equivalent to the current onM_signalok (that is, it can be called
on any of the curg, g0, and gsignal stacks).
The name onM and the phrase 'm stack' are misnomers,
because on most system an M has two system stacks:
the main thread stack and the signal handling stack.
Correct the misnomer by naming the replacement function systemstack.
Fix a few references to "M stack" in code.
The main motivation for this change is to eliminate scalararg/ptrarg.
Rick and I have already seen them cause problems because
the calling sequence m.ptrarg[0] = p is a heap pointer assignment,
so it gets a write barrier. The write barrier also uses onM, so it has
all the same problems as if it were being invoked by a signal handler.
We worked around this by saving and restoring the old values
and by calling onM_signalok, but there's no point in keeping this nice
home for bugs around any longer.
This CL also changes funcline to return the file name as a result
instead of filling in a passed-in *string. (The *string signature is
left over from when the code was written in and called from C.)
That's arguably an unrelated change, except that once I had done
the ptrarg/scalararg/onM cleanup I started getting false positives
about the *string argument escaping (not allowed in package runtime).
The compiler is wrong, but the easiest fix is to write the code like
Go code instead of like C code. I am a bit worried that the compiler
is wrong because of some use of uninitialized memory in the escape
analysis. If that's the reason, it will go away when we convert the
compiler to Go. (And if not, we'll debug it the next time.)

runtime: avoid gentraceback of self on user goroutine stack
Gentraceback may grow the stack.
One of the gentraceback wrappers may grow the stack.
One of the gentraceback callback calls may grow the stack.
Various stack pointers are stored in various stack locations
as type uintptr during the execution of these calls.
If the stack does grow, these stack pointers will not be
updated and will start trying to decode stack memory that
is no longer valid.
It may be possible to change the type of the stack pointer
variables to be unsafe.Pointer, but that's pretty subtle and
may still have problems, even if we catch every last one.
An easier, more obviously correct fix is to require that
gentraceback of the currently running goroutine must run
on the g0 stack, not on the goroutine's own stack.
Not doing this causes faults when you set
StackFromSystem = 1
StackFaultOnFree = 1
The new check in gentraceback will catch future lapses.
The more general problem is calling getcallersp but then
calling a function that might relocate the stack, which would
invalidate the result of getcallersp. Add note to stubs.go
declaration of getcallersp explaining the problem, and
check all existing calls to getcallersp. Most needed fixes.
This affects Callers, Stack, and nearly all the runtime
profiling routines. It does not affect stack copying directly
