The frame that gets allocated is for both
the args and the autos. If together they
exceed the default frame size, we need to
tell morestack about both so that it allocates
a large enough frame.

That is, move the pc/ln table and the symbol table
into the read-only data segment. This eliminates
the need for a special load command to map the
symbol table into memory, which makes the
information available on systems that couldn't handle
the magic load to 0x99000000, like NaCl and ARM QEMU
and Linux without config_highmem=y. It also
eliminates an #ifdef and some clumsy code to
find the symbol table on Windows.
The bad news is that the binary appears to be bigger
than it used to be. This is not actually the case, though:
the same amount of data is being mapped into memory
as before, and the tables are still read-only, so they're
still shared across multiple instances of the binary as
they were before. The difference is just that the tables
aren't squirreled away in some section that "size" doesn't
know to look at.
This is a checkpoint.
It probably breaks Windows and breaks NaCl more
than it used to be broken, but those will be fixed.
The logic involving -s needs to be revisited too.

Also change the span-dependent jump algorithm
to use fewer iterations:
* resolve forward jumps at their targets (comefrom list)
* mark jumps as small or big and only do small->big
* record whether a jump failed to be encodable
These changes mean that a function with only small
jumps can be laid out in a single iteration, and the
vast majority of functions take just two iterations.
I was seeing a maximum of 5 iterations before; the
max now is 3 and there are fewer that get even that far.

Using explicit relocations internally, we can
represent the data for a particular symbol as
an initialized block of memory instead of a
linked list of ADATA instructions. The real
goal here is to be able to hand off some of the
relocations to the dynamic linker when interacting
with system libraries, but a pleasant side effect is
that the memory image is much more compact
than the ADATA list, so the linkers use less memory.

The Plan 9 tools assume that long is 32 bits.
We converted all instances of long to int32 when
importing the code but missed the print formats.
Because int32 is always int on the compilers we use,
it is never correct to use %lux, %ld, etc. Convert to %ux, %d, etc.
(It matters because on 64-bit gcc, long is 64 bits,
so we were printing 32-bit quantities with 64-bit formats.)

6l was skipping emitting the (2 byte) symbol table if there were no imported or exported
symbols. You can't just drop the symbol table entirely - the linker dies if you have
a linkedit section but no table. You can omit the linkedit section or both the linkedit
and the dlyd parts in the right circumstances, but that seems much more risky to me.

New logging interface simplifies and generalizes.
1) Loggers now have only one output.
2) log.Stdout, Stderr, Crash and friends are gone.
Logging is now always to standard error by default.
3) log.Panic* replaces log.Crash*.
4) Exiting and panicking are not part of the logger's state; instead
the functions Exit* and Panic* simply call Exit or panic after
printing.
5) There is now one 'standard logger'. Instead of calling Stderr,
use Print etc. There are now triples, by analogy with fmt:
Print, Println, Printf
What was log.Stderr is now best represented by log.Println,
since there are now separate Print and Println functions
(and methods).
6) New functions SetOutput, SetFlags, and SetPrefix allow global
editing of the standard logger's properties. This is new
functionality. For instance, one can call
log.SetFlags(log.Lshortfile|log.Ltime|log.Lmicroseconds)
to get all logging output to show file name, line number, and
time stamp.
In short, for most purposes
log.Stderr -> log.Println or log.Print
log.Stderrf -> log.Printf
log.Crash -> log.Panicln or log.Panic
log.Crashf -> log.Panicf
log.Exit -> log.Exitln or log.Exit
log.Exitf -> log.Exitf (no change)
This has a slight breakage: since loggers now write only to one
output, existing calls to log.New() need to delete the second argument.
Also, custom loggers with exit or panic properties will need to be
reworked.
All package code updated to new interface.
The test has been reworked somewhat.
The old interface will be removed after the new release.
For now, its elements are marked 'deprecated' in their comments.
Fixes#1184.

An exercise in reflection and an unusual tool.
From the usage message:
usage: gotry [packagedirectory] expression ...
Given one expression, gotry attempts to evaluate that expression.
Given multiple expressions, gotry treats them as a list of arguments
and result values and attempts to find a function in the package
that, given the first few expressions as arguments, evaluates to
the remaining expressions as results. If the first expression has
methods, it will also search for applicable methods.
If there are multiple expressions, a package directory must be
specified. If there is a package argument, the expressions are
evaluated in an environment that includes
import . "packagedirectory"
Examples:
gotry 3+4
# evaluates to 7
gotry strings '"abc"' '"c"' 7-5
# finds strings.Index etc.
gotry regexp 'MustCompile("^[0-9]+")' '"12345"' true

Specifically:
- Simplified definition of comparison compatibility and folded into
section on comparison operators since it's only used there.
This is a small language change/cleanup. As a consequence:
- An interface value may now be compared against a non-interface value.
- Channels with opposite directions cannot be compared directly anymore

Based on the observation that a great number of the types that
are copied or compared in interfaces, maps, and channels are
word-sized, this uses specialized copy and equality functions
for them that use a word instead of 4 or 8 bytes. Seems to yield
0-6% improvements in performance in the benchmarks I've run.
For example, with the regexp benchmarks:
Before:
regexp.BenchmarkLiteral 500000 3.26 µs/op
regexp.BenchmarkNotLiteral 100000 13.67 µs/op
regexp.BenchmarkMatchClass 100000 18.72 µs/op
regexp.BenchmarkMatchClass_InRange 100000 20.04 µs/op
regexp.BenchmarkReplaceAll 100000 27.85 µs/op
After:
regexp.BenchmarkLiteral 500000 3.11 µs/op
regexp.BenchmarkNotLiteral 200000 13.29 µs/op
regexp.BenchmarkMatchClass 100000 17.65 µs/op

that you can't define an enormous struct without giving the
type a name and then stick it in an interface, because the

I'm willing to wait until it comes up in practice.
