This change adds a "locked" parameter to scavenge() and scavengeone()
which allows these methods to be run with the heap lock acquired, and
synchronously with respect to others which acquire the heap lock.
This mode is necessary for both heap-growth scavenging (multiple
asynchronous scavengers here could be problematic) and
debug.FreeOSMemory.

This change makes it so that the new page allocator returns the number
of pages that are scavenged in a new allocation so that mheap can update
memstats appropriately.
The accounting could be embedded into pageAlloc, but that would make
the new allocator more difficult to test.

This change adds a scavenger for the new page allocator along with
tests. The scavenger walks over the heap backwards once per GC, looking
for memory to scavenge. It walks across the heap without any lock held,
searching optimistically. If it finds what appears to be a scavenging
candidate it acquires the heap lock and attempts to verify it. Upon
verification it then scavenges.
Notably, unlike the old scavenger, it doesn't show any preference for
huge pages and instead follows a more strict last-page-first policy.

This change ensures js-wasm returns page-aligned memory. While today
its lack of alignment doesn't cause problems, this is an invariant of
sysAlloc which is documented in HACKING.md but isn't upheld by js-wasm.
Any code that calls sysAlloc directly for small structures expects a
certain alignment (e.g. debuglog, tracebufs) but this is not maintained
by js-wasm's sysAlloc.
Where sysReserve comes into play is that sysAlloc is implemented in
terms of sysReserve on js-wasm. Also, the documentation of sysReserve
says that the returned memory is "OS-aligned" which on most platforms
means page-aligned, but the "OS-alignment" on js-wasm is effectively 1,
which doesn't seem right either.
The expected impact of this change is increased memory use on wasm,
since there's no way to decommit memory, and any small structures
allocated with sysAlloc won't be packed quite as tightly. However, any
memory increase should be minimal. Most calls to sysReserve and sysAlloc
already aligned their request to physPageSize before calling it; there
are only a few circumstances where this is not true, and they involve
allocating an amount of memory returned by unsafe.Sizeof where it's
actually quite important that we get the alignment right.

This API was added for #25819, where it was discussed as math.FMA.
The commit adding it used math.Fma, presumably for consistency
with the rest of the unusual names in package math
(Sincos, Acosh, Erfcinv, Float32bits, etc).
I believe that using an idiomatic Go name is more important here
than consistency with these other names, most of which are historical
baggage from C's standard library.
Early additions like Float32frombits happened before "uppercase for export"
(so they were originally like "float32frombits") and they were not properly
reconsidered when we uppercased the symbols to export them.
That's a mistake we live with.
The names of functions we have added since then, and even a few
that were legacy, are more properly Go-cased, such as IsNaN, IsInf,
and RoundToEven, rather than Isnan, Isinf, and Roundtoeven.
And also constants like MaxFloat32.
For new API, we should keep using proper Go-cased symbols
instead of minimally-upper-cased-C symbols.
So math.FMA, not math.Fma.
This API has not yet been released, so this change does not break
the compatibility promise.
This CL also modifies cmd/compile, since the compiler knows
the name of the function. I could have stopped at changing the
string constants, but it seemed to make more sense to use a
consistent casing everywhere.

It is counterproductive because it causes an accidental

This change prunes out some of the +incompatible versions in

We had some issues with reports being marked as spam, so I added a
filter to never mark as spam something that mentions the word
"vulnerability". We get too much spam at that address to disable the
filter entirely, so instead meantion the bypass in the docs.

dsa.Verify might currently use a nil s inverse in a
multiplication if the public key contains a non-prime Q,
causing a panic. Change this to check that the mod
inverse exists before using it.

In the dev.link branch we implemented the new object file format
and (part of) the linker improvements described in
https://golang.org/s/better-linker
The new object file is index-based and provides random access.
The linker maps the object files into read-only memory, and
access symbols on-demand using indices, as opposed to reading
all object files sequentially into the heap with the old format.
The linker carries symbol informations using indices (as opposed
to Symbol data structure). Symbols are created after the
reachability analysis, and only created for reachable symbols.
This reduces the linker's memory usage.
Linking cmd/compile, it creates ~25% fewer Symbols, and reduces
memory usage (inuse_space) by ~15%. (More results from Than.)
Currently, both the old and new object file formats are supported.
The old format is used by default. The new format can be turned
on by using the compiler/assembler/linker's -newobj flag. Note
that the flag needs to be specified consistently to all
compilations, i.e.
go build -gcflags=all=-newobj -asmflags=all=-newobj -ldflags=-newobj
