by making the Xeon performance significantly slower.

(which uses a different implementation than 0.9.8r)
reports its rc4 speed as 587 MB/s for 1K and 601 MB/s for 8K.
It is using SIMD instructions to do more in parallel.
So there's still some improvement to be had, but even so,
this is almost 2x faster than what it replaced.

Consequently, remove many package Makefiles,
and shorten the few that remain.
gomake becomes 'go tool make'.
Turn off test phases of run.bash that do not work,
flagged with $BROKEN. Future CLs will restore these,
but this seemed like a big enough CL already.

This is largely based on ality's CL 2747042.
crypto/rc4: API break in order to conform to crypto/cipher's
Stream interface
cipher/cipher: promote to the default build
Since CBC differs between TLS 1.0 and 1.1, we downgrade and
support only 1.0 at the current time. 1.0 is what most of the
world uses.
Given this CL, it would be trival to add support for AES 256,
SHA 256 etc, but I haven't in order to keep the change smaller.

parsing and printing to new syntax.
Use -oldparser to parse the old syntax,
use -oldprinter to print the old syntax.
2) Change default gofmt formatting settings
to use tabs for indentation only and to use
spaces for alignment. This will make the code
alignment insensitive to an editor's tabwidth.
Use -spaces=false to use tabs for alignment.
3) Manually changed src/exp/parser/parser_test.go
so that it doesn't try to parse the parser's
source files using the old syntax (they have
new syntax now).
4) gofmt -w src misc test/bench
1st set of files.

the bash scripts and makefiles for building go didn't take into account
the fact $GOROOT / $GOBIN could both be directories containing whitespaces,
and was not possible to build it in such a situation.
this commit adjusts the various makefiles/scripts to make it aware of that
possibility, and now it builds successfully when using a path with whitespaces
as well.
Fixes#115.
