Renaming the C SysAlloc will let Go define a prototype without exporting it.
For use in cpuprof.goc's translation to Go.

The existing code did not have a clear notion of whether
memory has been actually reserved. It checked based on
whether in 32-bit mode or 64-bit mode and (on GNU/Linux) the
requested address, but it confused the requested address and
the returned address.

Mark free memory blocks as unused.
On amd64 it allows the process to eat all 128 GB of heap
without killing the machine.

On stack overflow, if all frames on the stack are
copyable, we copy the frames to a new stack twice
as large as the old one. During GC, if a G is using
less than 1/4 of its stack, copy the stack to a stack
half its size.
TODO
- Do something about C frames. When a C frame is in the
stack segment, it isn't copyable. We allocate a new segment
in this case.
- For idempotent C code, we can abort it, copy the stack,
then retry. I'm working on a separate CL for this.
- For other C code, we can raise the stackguard
to the lowest Go frame so the next call that Go frame
makes triggers a copy, which will then succeed.
- Pick a starting stack size?
The plan is that eventually we reach a point where the
stack contains only copyable frames.

Go runtime support for dragonfly/amd64, largely based of the existing
FreeBSD runtime (with some clues from the varialus/godfly work).
