Equality on structs will require arbitrary code for type equality,
so change algorithm in type data from uint8 to table pointer.
In the process, trim top-level map structure from
104/80 bytes (64-bit/32-bit) to 24/12.
Equality on structs will require being able to call code generated
by the Go compiler, and C code has no way to access Go return
values, so change the hash and equal algorithm functions to take
a pointer to a result instead of returning the result.

An experiment: allow structs to be copied even if they
contain unexported fields. This gives packages the
ability to return opaque values in their APIs, like reflect
does for reflect.Value but without the kludgy hacks reflect
resorts to.
In general, we trust programmers not to do silly things
like *x = *y on a package's struct pointers, just as we trust
programmers not to do unicode.Letter = unicode.Digit,
but packages that want a harder guarantee can introduce
an extra level of indirection, like in the changes to os.File
in this CL or by using an interface type.
All in one CL so that it can be rolled back more easily if
we decide this is a bad idea.

The linker would catch them if gc succeeded,

type signature mismatches that confuse users.
As a crutch, add the -p flag to say 'if you see an
import of this package, give up early'. Results in
messages like (during gotest in sort):

When a line directive was encountered we would push a new 'z' entry into
the history to indicate the start of new file attributation, and a 'Z'
entry to change line numbering. However we didn't pop the 'z' entry, so
we were actually corrupting the history stack. The most obvious
occurance of this was in the code that build the symbol tables for the
DWARF information - where an internal stack in the linker would overflow
when more than a few line directives were encountered in a single stack
(Issue 1878). So now we pop the 'z' entry when we encounter the end of
the file that the directive was in, which maintains the history stack
integrity.
Also, although new 'z' entries for new files had relative paths
expanded, the same was not done for line directives. Now we do it for
line directives also - so that the now correct DWARF information has the
full path available.

is problematic because the liveness range for
autotmp_0000 (0006-0009) is nested completely
inside a span where BX holds a live value (0003-0015).
Because the register allocator only looks at 0006-0009
to see which registers are used, it misses the fact that
BX is unavailable and uses it anyway.
The n->pun = anyregalloc() check in tempname is
a workaround for this bug, but I hit it again because
I did the tempname call before allocating BX, even
though I then used the temporary after storing in BX.
This should fix the real bug, and then we can remove
the workaround in tempname.
The code creates pseudo-variables for each register
and includes that information in the liveness propagation.
Then the regu fields can be populated using that more
complete information. With that approach, BX is marked
as in use on every line in the whole span 0003-0015,
so that the decision about autotmp_0000
(using only 0006-0009) still has all the information
it needs.
This is not specific to the 386, but it only happens in
generated code of the form
load R1
...
load var into R2
...
store R2 back into var
...
use R1
and for the most part the other compilers generate
the loads for a given compiled line before any of
the stores. Even so, this may not be the case everywhere,
so the change is worth making in all three.

This change records more metadata about what
influenced the creation of the object file.
Specifically, if a package imports, say, "fmt" but does not
need to describe any fmt types in its own export data,
that package's object file did not mention the dependency
on "fmt" before. Now it does.
Listing the import is purely informational.
It has no effect on which files are opened or consulted
when importing a package.
Import lines are marked indirect when they are needed
to explain the API but were not imported directly.
For example http imports crypto/tls and exports
a struct with a field of type tls.ConnectionState,
which contains an x509.Certificate. Since http does
not import x509 but needs to explain the x509.Certificate
type in its export data, the import of x509 is marked
as indirect. These import lines were always present;
marking them with the indirect comment makes clear
which were imported directly and which are incidental.

The object files begin with a header that is

on a line by itself. This CL changes that header to
go object $GOOS $GOARCH release.2011-01-01 4567+
where the final two fields are the most recent release
tag and the current hg version number.
All objects imported into a Go compilation or linked into an
executable must have the same header line, and that header
line must match the compiler and linker versions.
The effect of this will be that if you update and run all.bash
and then try to link in objects compiled with an earlier version
of the compiler (or invoke the wrong version of the compiler),
you will get an error showing the different headers instead
of perhaps silent incompatibility.
Normal usage with all.bash should be unaffected, because
all.bash deletes all the object files in $GOROOT/pkg/$GOOS_$GOARCH
and cleans all intermediate object files before starting.
This change is intended to diagnose stale objects arising when
users maintaining alternate installation directories forget to
rebuild some of their files after updating.
