When cgo is used, runtime creates an additional M to handle callbacks on threads not created by Go.
This effectively disabled deadlock detection, which is a right thing, because Go program can be blocked
and only serve callbacks on external threads.
This also disables deadlock detection under race detector, because it happens to use cgo.
With this change the additional M is created lazily on first cgo call. So deadlock detector
works for programs that import "C", "net" or "net/http/pprof" but do not use them in fact.
Also fixes deadlock detector under race detector.
It should be fine to create the M later, because C code can not call into Go before first cgo call,
because C code does not know when Go initialization has completed. So a Go program need to call into C
first either to create an external thread, or notify a thread created in global ctor that Go
initialization has completed.

Fixes#5475.

Fixes#5061.
Current code relies on the fact that fd's are automatically removed from epoll set when closed. However, it is not true. Underlying file description is removed from epoll set only when *all* fd's referring to it are closed.
There are 2 bad consequences:
1. Kernel delivers notifications on already closed fd's.
2. The following sequence of events leads to error:
- add fd1 to epoll
- dup fd1 = fd2
- close fd1 (not removed from epoll since we've dup'ed the fd)
- dup fd2 = fd1 (get the same fd as fd1)
- add fd1 to epoll = EEXIST
So, if fd can be potentially dup'ed of fork'ed, it's necessary to explicitly remove the fd from epoll set.

Change 231af8ac63aa (CL 7314062) made runtime.enteryscall()
set m->mcache = nil, which means that we can no longer use
syscall.errstr in syscall.Syscall and syscall.Syscall6, since it
requires a new buffer to be allocated for holding the error string.
Instead, we use pre-allocated per-M storage to hold error strings
from syscalls made while in entersyscall mode, and call
runtime.findnull to calculate the lengths.

Previously, the func structure contained an inaccurate value for
the args member and a 0 value for the locals member.
This change populates the func structure with args and locals
values computed by the compiler. The number of args was
already available in the ATEXT instruction. The number of
locals is now passed through in the new ALOCALS instruction.
This change also switches the unit of args and locals to be
bytes, just like the frame member, instead of 32-bit words.

In addition to the compile failure fixed in signal*.c,
preserving the signal mask led to very strange crashes.
Testing shows that looking for SIG_IGN is all that
matters to get along with nohup, so reintroduce
sigset_zero instead of trying to preserve the signal mask.

There are two ways nohup(1) might be implemented:
it might mask away the signal, or it might set the handler
to SIG_IGN, both of which are inherited across fork+exec.
So two fixes:
* Make sure to preserve the inherited signal mask at
minit instead of clearing it.
* If the SIGHUP handler is SIG_IGN, leave it that way.

Binary data in mprof.goc may prevent the garbage collector from freeing
memory blocks. This patch replaces all calls to runtime·mallocgc() with
calls to an allocator private to mprof.goc, thus making the private
memory invisible to the garbage collector. The addrhash variable is
