Currently we always create context objects for closures that capture variables.
However, it is completely unnecessary for direct calls of closures
(whether it is func()(), defer func()() or go func()()).
This change transforms any OCALLFUNC(OCLOSURE) to normal function call.
Closed variables become function arguments.
This transformation is especially beneficial for go func(),
because we do not need to allocate context object on heap.
But it makes direct closure calls a bit faster as well (see BenchmarkClosureCall).
On implementation level it required to introduce yet another compiler pass.
However, the pass iterates only over xtop, so it should not be an issue.
Transformation consists of two parts: closure transformation and call site
transformation. We can't run these parts on different sides of escape analysis,
because tree state is inconsistent. We can do both parts during typecheck,
we don't know how to capture variables and don't have call site.
We can't do both parts during walk of OCALLFUNC, because we can walk
OCLOSURE body earlier.
So now capturevars pass only decides how to capture variables
(this info is required for escape analysis). New transformclosure
pass, that runs just before order/walk, does all transformations
of a closure. And later walk of OCALLFUNC(OCLOSURE) transforms call site.

Consider an interface value i of type I and concrete value c of type C.
Prior to this CL, i==c was evaluated as
I(c) == i
Evaluating I(c) can allocate.
This CL changes the evaluation of i==c to
x, ok := i.(C); ok && x == c
The new generated code is shorter and does not allocate directly.
If C is small, as it is in every instance in the stdlib,
the new code also uses less stack space
and makes one runtime call instead of two.
If C is very large, the original implementation is used.
The cutoff for "very large" is 1<<16,
following the stack vs heap cutoff used elsewhere.
This kind of comparison occurs in 38 places in the stdlib,
mostly in the net and os packages.

This adds a "framepointer" GOEXPERIMENT that that makes the amd64
toolchain maintain base pointer chains in the same way that gcc
-fno-omit-frame-pointer does. Go doesn't use these saved base
pointers, but this does enable external tools like Linux perf and
VTune to unwind Go stacks when collecting system-wide profiles.
This requires support in the compilers to not clobber BP, support in
liblink for generating the BP-saving function prologue and unwinding
epilogue, and support in the runtime to save BPs across preemption, to
skip saved BPs during stack unwinding and, and to adjust saved BPs
during stack moving.
As with other GOEXPERIMENTs, everything from the toolchain to the
runtime must be compiled with this experiment enabled. To do this,
run make.bash (or all.bash) with GOEXPERIMENT=framepointer.

Language specification says that variables are captured by reference.
And that is what gc compiler does. However, in lots of cases it is
possible to capture variables by value under the hood without
affecting visible behavior of programs. For example, consider
the following typical pattern:
func (o *Obj) requestMany(urls []string) []Result {
wg := new(sync.WaitGroup)
wg.Add(len(urls))
res := make([]Result, len(urls))
for i := range urls {
i := i
go func() {
res[i] = o.requestOne(urls[i])
wg.Done()
}()
}
wg.Wait()
return res
}
Currently o, wg, res, and i are captured by reference causing 3+len(urls)
allocations (e.g. PPARAM o is promoted to PPARAMREF and moved to heap).
But all of them can be captured by value without changing behavior.
This change implements simple strategy for capturing by value:
if a captured variable is not addrtaken and never assigned to,
then it is captured by value (it is effectively const).
This simple strategy turned out to be very effective:
~80% of all captures in std lib are turned into value captures.
The remaining 20% are mostly in defers and non-escaping closures,
that is, they do not cause allocations anyway.

Currently we always allocate string buffers in heap.
For example, in the following code we allocate a temp string
just for comparison:
if string(byteSlice) == "abc" { ... }
This change extends escape analysis to cover []byte->string
conversions and string concatenation. If the result of operations
does not escape, compiler allocates a small buffer
on stack and passes it to slicebytetostring and concatstrings.
Then runtime uses the buffer if the result fits into it.
Size of the buffer is 32 bytes. There is no fundamental theory
behind this number. Just an observation that on std lib
tests/benchmarks frequency of string allocation is inversely
proportional to string length; and there is significant number
of allocations up to length 32.

before wrapper generation. When a generated wrapper calls a method

no escape information for the variables defined in the inlined call.
Those variables will be placed on the stack, which fails if they
actually do escape.
There are probably various complex ways to fix this. This is a simple
way to avoid it: when a generated wrapper calls a method defined in a

the equality function for the type defined in the other package.
Since that type is not exported, the reference to the equality
function failed at link time. Normally it is impossible for a struct
to directly contain a member that is an unexported type from another
