- Remove references to C compiler directories.
- Remove generation of special header files.
- Remove generation of Go source files from C declarations.
- Compile Go sources before rest of package (was after),
so that Go compiler can write go_asm.h for use in assembly.
- Move TLS information from cmd/dist (was embedding in output)

[dev.cc] liblink: resolve bss vs other conflict regardless of order found
If the linker finds the same name given a BSS and a non-BSS
symbol, the assumption is that the non-BSS symbol is the
true one, and the BSS symbol is just the best Go can do toward
an "extern" declaration. This has always been the case,
as long as the object files were read in the right order.
The old code worked when the BSS symbol is found before
the non-BSS symbol. This CL adds equivalent logic for when
the non-BSS symbol is found before the BSS symbol.
This comes up when Go must refer to symbols defined in
host object files.

[This CL is part of the removal of C code from package runtime.

export.c, lex.c:
Add -asmhdr flag to write assembly header file with struct
field offsets and const values. cmd/dist used to construct this
file by interpreting output from the C compiler.
Generate it from the Go definitions instead.
Also, generate the form we need directly, instead of relying
on cmd/dist for reprocessing.
lex.c, obj.c:
If the C compiler accepted #pragma cgo_xxx, recognize
a directive //go:cgo_xxx instead. The effect is the same as
in the C compiler: accumulate text into a buffer and emit in the
output file, where the linker will find and use it.
lex.c, obj.c:
Accept //go:linkname to control the external symbol name
used for a particular top-level Go variable. This makes it
possible to refer to C symbol names but also symbols from
other packages. It has always been possible to do this from
C and assembly. To drive home the point that this should not
be done lightly, require import "unsafe" in any file containing
//go:linkname.
plive.c, reflect.c, subr.c:
Hard-code that interfaces contain only pointers.

collector and the stack copier can be deleted instead of being
converted. This change is already present in the dev.garbage

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
nor garbage collection.

test: comment out failing cases from sinit.go
One failing case this removes is:
var bytes = []byte("hello, world")
var copy_bytes = bytes
We could handle this in the compiler, but it requires special
case for a variable that is initialized to the value of a
variable that is initialized to a string literal converted to
[]byte. This seems an unlikely case--it never occurs in the
standrd library--and it seems unnecessary to write the code to
handle it.
If we do want to support this case, one approach is
https://golang.org/cl/171840043.
The other failing cases are of the form
var bx bool
var copy_bx = bx
The compiler used to initialize copy_bx to false. However,
that led to issue 7665, since bx may be initialized in non-Go
code. The compiler no longer assumes that bx must be false,
so copy_bx can not be statically initialized.
We can fix these with https://golang.org/cl/169040043
if we also pass -complete to the compiler as part of this
test. This is OK but it's too late in the release cycle.

runtime: change top-most return PC from goexit to goexit+PCQuantum

that every PC is immediately after a call instruction, so to find
the line of the call, you look up the line for PC-1.

The most common exception to this is the top-most return PC
on the stack, which is the entry address of the runtime.goexit
function. Subtracting 1 from that PC will end up in a different
function entirely.
To remove this special case, make the top-most return PC
goexit+PCQuantum and then implement goexit in assembly
so that the first instruction can be skipped.

runtime: fix line number in first stack frame in printed stack trace
Originally traceback was only used for printing the stack
when an unexpected signal came in. In that case, the
initial PC is taken from the signal and should be used
unaltered. For the callers, the PC is the return address,
which might be on the line after the call; we subtract 1
to get to the CALL instruction.
Traceback is now used for a variety of things, and for
almost all of those the initial PC is a return address,
whether from getcallerpc, or gp->sched.pc, or gp->syscallpc.
In those cases, we need to subtract 1 from this initial PC,
but the traceback code had a hard rule "never subtract 1
from the initial PC", left over from the signal handling days.
Change gentraceback to take a flag that specifies whether
we are tracing a trap.
Change traceback to default to "starting with a return PC",
which is the overwhelmingly common case.
Add tracebacktrap, like traceback but starting with a trap PC.
Use tracebacktrap in signal handlers.
