Two special cases:
1. mHeap_Scavenge() previously didn't take an *mheap parameter, so it
was specially handled in this CL.
2. mHeap_Free() would have collided with mheap's "free" field, so it's
been renamed to (*mheap).freeSpan to parallel its underlying
(*mheap).freeSpanLocked method.

Currently, startTheWorld clears preemptoff for the current M before
starting the world. A few callers increment m.locks around
startTheWorld, presumably to prevent preemption any time during
starting the world. This is almost certainly pointless (none of the
other callers do this), but there's no harm in making startTheWorld
keep preemption disabled until it's all done, which definitely lets us
drop these m.locks manipulations.

There are several steps to stopping and starting the world and
currently they're open-coded in several places. The garbage collector
is the only thing that needs to stop and start the world in a
non-trivial pattern. Replace all other uses with calls to higher-level
functions that implement the entire pattern necessary to stop and
start the world.
This is a pure refectoring and should not change any code semantics.
In the following commits, we'll make changes that are easier to do
with this abstraction in place.
This commit renames the old starttheworld to startTheWorldWithSema.
This is a slight misnomer right now because the callers release
worldsema just before calling this. However, a later commit will swap
these and I don't want to think of another name in the mean time.

Previous CLs changed the representation of the non-heap type bitmaps
to be 1-bit bitmaps (pointer or not). Before this CL, the heap bitmap
stored a 2-bit type for each word and a mark bit and checkmark bit
for the first word of the object. (There used to be additional per-word bits.)
Reduce heap bitmap to 2-bit, with 1 dedicated to pointer or not,
and the other used for mark, checkmark, and "keep scanning forward
to find pointers in this object." See comments for details.
This CL replaces heapBitsSetType with very slow but obviously correct code.
A followup CL will optimize it. (Spoiler: the new code is faster than Go 1.4 was.)

The code in mfinal.go is moved from malloc*.go and mgc*.go
and substantially unchanged.
The code in mbitmap.go is also moved from those files, but
cleaned up so that it can be called from those files (in most cases
the code being moved was not already a standalone function).
I also renamed the constants and wrote comments describing
the format. The result is a significant cleanup and isolation of
the bitmap code, but, roughly speaking, it should be treated
and reviewed as new code.
The other files changed only as much as necessary to support
this code movement.
This CL does NOT change the semantics of the heap or type
bitmaps at all, although there are now some obvious opportunities
to do so in followup CLs.

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.)
