32d127823f go spec: clarify rules for shifts 
Note: This is not a spec change.

The spec was not clear on the result type of
constant shift expressions. Made it more
explicit and added additional examples.

Also: Remove paragraph on send expressions (they
are statements, now).

Fixes #1708.

05a1b7ec41 http: remove finalURL from Client.Get; move to Response 
This CL:

-- removes Response.RequestMethod string
-- adds Response.Request *Request
-- removes the finalURL result parameter from client.Get()
-- adds a gofix rule for callers of http.Get which assign
   the final url to the blank identifier; warning otherwise

Caller who did:

res, finalURL, err := http.Get(...)

now need to do:

res, err := http.Get(...)
if err != nil {
   ...
}
finalURL := res.Request.URL.String()

5473103666 go spec: clarify semantics of range clause 
This CL proposes some subtle language changes
in an attempt to clarify the semantics of range
clauses and simplify uses of maps.

- nil maps behave like empty maps; but attempting
  to set a value in a nil map causes a run-time panic
- nil channels are never ready for communication;
  sending or reading from a nil channel blocks forever
- if there is only one index iteration variable in a
  range clause and len(range expression) would be a constant,
  the range expression is not evaluated.
  (was discrepancy with len/cap before)
- the notion of what is a constant expression len(x)
  for (pointer to) arrays x has been generalized and
  simplified (can still be syntactically decided)
  (before: more restrictive syntactic rule that was not
  consistently implemented)

Fixes #1713.

fa3d0d73f0 go spec: adjust notion of Assignability 
This change makes it legal to pass a struct value as receiver
outside the package declaring the struct even if the respective
struct type has non-exported fields.

This is a backwards-compatible language change motivated by the
fact that it is already possible to circumvent the assignment
restriction when calling methods through interfaces (see issue
1402).

a6736cae30 spec: allow imported packages named main 
Prior to this CL, there were two requirements about the
package name main.

1. The package that sits at the root of the import graph
   (the one where program execution begins)
   must be named main.

2. No other package in the program can be named main.

This CL only removes requirement #2, which can be done
without changing any other Go documentation.

The new wording and formatting is such that removing
requirement #1 can be done by deleting a single line,
but making that change is explicitly outside the scope
of this CL, because it would require changes to other
documentation at the same time.
