In prep for Robert's forthcoming cmd/api rewrite which
depends on the go.tools subrepo, we'll need to be more
careful about how and when we run cmd/api.
Rather than implement this policy in both run.bash and
run.bat, this change moves the policy and mechanism into
cmd/api/run.go, which will then evolve.
The plan is in a TODO in run.go.

cmd/api is a tool to prevent the Go developers from breaking
the Go 1 API promise. It has no utility to end users and
doesn't run on arbitrary packages (it's always been full of
hacks for its bespoke type checker to work on the standard
library)
Robert's in-progress rewrite depends on the go.tools repo for
go/types, so we won't be able to ship this tool later
anyway. Just remove it from binary distributions.
A future change to run.bash can conditionally build & run
cmd/api, perhaps automatically fetching go/types if
necessary. I assume people don't want to vendor go/types into
a private gopath just for cmd/api.
I will need help with run.bat.

The postinstall script causes the installation to fail because the last
step that copies files for Xcode is broken. Two details can cause the
command to fail:
1. The XCODE_MISC_DIR value has a space. Without quotes in the cp
command, cp will just complain that this is an invalid syntax.
2. The source of the cp is a directory with two subdirectories.
We actually want the files for either Xcode 3 or Xcode 4 to be copied.
Using xcodebuild -version, we check for the Xcode version and
select which of xcode/3/* or xcode/4/* should be the source
of the copy.
Fixes#5874.

The files could use some attention on the
Windows side but better to wait until after
the upcoming release.

The installer package will now detect a previous installation and warn the user
that the previous installation will be deleted. If the user continues, the
installer will delete the previous installation and install the package as
usual.

This changes the misc/dist program to generate OS X
packages using pkgbuild and productbuild.
The productbuild utility makes it easy to generate
packages with a custom Distribution file. This allows
us to add an installcheck script that presents a
friendly message to users who are running on an old
version of Mac OS X.
The change also fixes a few issues with the
postinstall script:
- In-repo version of the script has been made
executable. Installers generated using the new
tools couldn't execute it otherwise.
- It now uses -d for checking for the existence
of the Xcode specs directory.
- The call to sudo.bash has been dropped since cov
and prof aren't bundled with the binary
distributions.
Fixes#3455.
Tested on 10.5.8, 10.6.0, 10.6.8 and 10.7.3.

Doesn't fix any known issue. This bit me in some unrelated
code and I thought of this tool.

This should live in archive/tar later (CL 5796073) but we
can always do that after Go 1 and stick it here for now.

For people untarring with -p or as root, preserving file permissions.
This way we don't make tars owned by adg/eng or adg/staff or whatever
machine Andrew was on. Instead, we always build tarballs owned by predictable
users.
Except archive/tar doesn't seem to work.
Updates #3209.

Use archive/zip instead of 7z on Windows.
Look for all Windows deps before starting build, and include looking
for them in their common locations instead of making users update
their PATHs.
Add an --upload flag that, if set to false, doesn't require credential
files.

As we've dropped support for Mac OS X 10.5, I think the generated .pkg
should reflect that decision.
But this CL make it impossible to generate pkg on Mac OS X 10.6, at least
for me.
