Some newer Linux distributions (Ubuntu ARM at least) use a new multiarch
directory organization, where dynamic linker is no longer in the hardcoded
path in our linker.
For example, Ubuntu 12.04 ARM hardfloat places its dynamic linker at
/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/ld-linux.so.3
Ref: http://lackof.org/taggart/hacking/multiarch/
Also, to support Debian GNU/kFreeBSD as a FreeBSD variant, we need this capability, so it's part of issue 3533.
This CL add a new pragma (#pragma dynlinker "path") to cc.

This makes it possible to inline the prefetch of upcoming
memory addresses during garbage collection, instead of
needing to flush registers, make a function call, and
reload registers. On garbage collection-heavy workloads,
this results in a 5% speedup.

Assignment of a computed uint64 value to an
address derived with a function call was executing
the call after computing the value, which trashed
the value (held in registers).
long long *f(void) { return 0; }
void g(int x, int y) {
*f() = (long long)x | (long long)y<<32;
}

Change the name of cas() in cc to newcase() to avoid a NIX conflict.
cas() is used in cc to create a new Case struct. There is a name
conflict in that cas() is a commonly-used
name for compare and swap. Since cas() is only used internally
in the compiler in 3 places, change the name to avoid a wider
conflict with the NIX runtime. This issue might well come up on
other OSes in the future anyway, as the name is fairly common.

The object files begin with a header that is
$GOARCH
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.
It should help make the adoption of $GOPATH (CL 3780043)
less error-prone.

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.)

UTF-8 string, Yconv() converts it into an octal sequence. If the
string converted to more than 30 bytes, the str buffer would
overflow. For example, 4 Greek runes became 32 bytes, 3 Hiragana
runes became 36 bytes, and 2 Gothic runes became 32 bytes. In
8l, 6l and 5l the function is Sconv(). For some reason, only 5l uses
the constant STRINGSZ (defined as 200) for the buffer size.

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.
