runtime: make continuation pc available to stack walk
The 'continuation pc' is where the frame will continue
execution, if anywhere. For a frame that stopped execution
due to a CALL instruction, the continuation pc is immediately
after the CALL. But for a frame that stopped execution due to
a fault, the continuation pc is the pc after the most recent CALL
to deferproc in that frame, or else 0. That is where execution
will continue, if anywhere.
The liveness information is only recorded for CALL instructions.
This change makes sure that we never look for liveness information
except for CALL instructions.
Using a valid PC fixes crashes when a garbage collection or
stack copying tries to process a stack frame that has faulted.
Record continuation pc in heapdump (format change).

cmd/6g: treat vardef-initialized fat variables as live at calls
This CL forces the optimizer to preserve some memory stores

spec: explicitly disallow blank methods in interface types
The spec was unclear about whether blank methods should be
permitted in interface types. gccgo permits at most one, gc
crashes if there are more than one, go/types permits at most
one.
Discussion:
Since method sets of non-interface types never contain methods
with blank names (blank methods are never declared), it is impossible
to satisfy an interface with a blank method.
It is possible to declare variables of assignable interface types
(but not necessarily identical types) containing blank methods, and
assign those variables to each other, but the values of those
variables can only be nil.
There appear to be two "reasonable" alternatives:
1) Permit at most one blank method (since method names must be unique),
and consider it part of the interface. This is what appears to happen
now, with corner-case bugs. Such interfaces can never be implemented.
2) Permit arbitrary many blank methods but ignore them. This appears
to be closer to the handling of blank identifiers in declarations.
However, an interface type literal is not a declaration (it's a type
literal). Also, for struct types, blank identifiers are not ignored;
so the analogy with declarations is flawed.
Both these alternatives don't seem to add any benefit and are likely
(if only slightly) more complicated to explain and implement than
disallowing blank methods in interfaces altogether.
