The linker split PKGDEF into (prefix, name, def) pairs,
and defines def to begin after a space following the identifier.
This is totally wrong for the following export data:
func "".FunctionName()
var SomethingCompletelyUnrelated int
The linker would parse
name=`"".FunctionName()\n\tvar`
def=`SomethingCompletelyUnrelated int`
since there is no space after FunctionName.

A constant node of type uintptr with a nil literal could
happen in two cases: []int(nil)[1:] and
uintptr(unsafe.Pointer(nil)).

Unnamed types like structs with embedded fields can have methods.
These methods are generated on-the-fly by the compiler and
it may happen for identical types in different packages.
The linker must accept these multiple definitions.

Before this CL, defining the variable worked fine, but then when
the implicit package-level init func was created, that caused a
name collision and a confusing error about the redeclaration.
Also add a test for issue 3705 (func init() needs body).

The patch makes the compile user an ordinary package-local
symbol for the name of embedded fields of builtin type.
This is incompatible with the fix delivered for issue 2687
(revision 3c060add43fb) but fixes it in a different way, because
the explicit symbol on the field makes the typechecker able to
find it in lookdot.
Fixes#3552.

A fatal error used to happen when escassign-ing a multiple
function return to a single node. However, the situation
naturally appears when using "go f(g())" or "defer f(g())",
because g() is escassign-ed to sink.

Used to say:
issue4251.go:12: inverted slice range
issue4251.go:12: constant -1 overflows uint64
issue4251.go:16: inverted slice range
issue4251.go:16: constant -1 overflows uint64
issue4251.go:20: inverted slice range
issue4251.go:20: constant -1 overflows uint64
With this patch, only gives the "inverted slice range" errors.

Fixes#4396.
For fixed arrays larger than the unmapped page, agenr would general a nil check by loading the first word of the array. However there is no requirement for the first element of a byte array to be word aligned, so this check causes a trap on ARMv5 hardware (ARMv6 since relaxed that restriction, but it probably still comes at a cost).
Switching the check to MOVB ensures alignment is not an issue. This check is only invoked in a few places in the code where large fixed arrays are embedded into structs, compress/lzw is the biggest offender, and switching to MOVB has no observable performance penalty.
Thanks to Rémy and Daniel Morsing for helping me debug this on IRC last night.

The current spec says that when calling make, if both len and
cap are constant, it is an error if len > cap. The gc
compiler does not yet implement that, but when it does this
will need to change. Changing it now for the benefit of
gccgo.

The compiler was confused when inlining a T.Method(f()) call
where f returns multiple values: support for this was marked
as TODO.
Variadic calls are not supported but are not inlined either.
Add a test preventively for that case.

Bools from comparisons can be assigned to all bool types, but this idealness would propagate through logical operators when the result should have been lowered to a non-ideal form.

The stack overflow checker in the linker uses the spadj field
to determine whether stack space will be large enough or not.
When spadj=0, the checker treats the function as a nosplit
and emits an error although the program is correct.
Also enable the stack checker in 8l.

The patch adds more cases to agenr to allocate registers later,
and makes 6g generate addresses for sgen in something else than
SI and DI. It avoids a complex save/restore sequence that
