Prefix all external symbols in runtime by runtime·,
to avoid conflicts with possible symbols of the same
name in linked-in C libraries. The obvious conflicts
are printf, malloc, and free, but hide everything to
avoid future pain.
The symbols left alone are:
** known to cgo **
_cgo_free
_cgo_malloc
libcgo_thread_start
initcgo
ncgocall
** known to linker **
_rt0_$GOARCH
_rt0_$GOARCH_$GOOS
text
etext
data
end
pclntab
epclntab
symtab
esymtab
** known to C compiler **
_divv
_modv
_div64by32
etc (arch specific)
Tested on darwin/386, darwin/amd64, linux/386, linux/amd64.
Built (but not tested) for freebsd/386, freebsd/amd64, linux/arm, windows/386.

Adds softfloat64 to generic runtime
(will be discarded by linker when unused)
and adds test for it. I used the test to check
the software code against amd64 hardware
and then check the software code against
the arm and its simulation of hardware.
The latter should have been a no-op (testing
against itself) but turned up a bug in 5c causing
the vlrt.c routines to miscompile.
These changes make the cmath, math,
and strconv tests pass without any special
accommodations for arm.

Just enough to make mov instructions work,
which in turn is enough to make strconv work
when it avoids any floating point calculations.
That makes a bunch of other packages pass
their tests.
Should suffice until hardware floating point
is available.
Enable package tests that now pass
(some due to earlier fixes).
Looks like there is a new integer math bug
exposed in the fmt and json tests.

The frame that gets allocated is for both
the args and the autos. If together they
exceed the default frame size, we need to
tell morestack about both so that it allocates
a large enough frame.
Sanity check stack pointer in morestack
to catch similar bugs.

That is, move the pc/ln table and the symbol table
into the read-only data segment. This eliminates
the need for a special load command to map the
symbol table into memory, which makes the
information available on systems that couldn't handle
the magic load to 0x99000000, like NaCl and ARM QEMU
and Linux without config_highmem=y. It also
eliminates an #ifdef and some clumsy code to
find the symbol table on Windows.
The bad news is that the binary appears to be bigger
than it used to be. This is not actually the case, though:
the same amount of data is being mapped into memory
as before, and the tables are still read-only, so they're
still shared across multiple instances of the binary as
they were before. The difference is just that the tables
aren't squirreled away in some section that "size" doesn't
know to look at.
This is a checkpoint.
It probably breaks Windows and breaks NaCl more
than it used to be broken, but those will be fixed.
The logic involving -s needs to be revisited too.
Fixes#871.

No multiple processes/locks, managed to compile
and run a hello.go (with print not fmt). Also test/sieve.go
seems to run until 439 and stops with a
'throw: all goroutines are asleep - deadlock!'
- just like runtime/tiny.
based on Russ's suggestions at:
http://groups.google.com/group/comp.os.plan9/browse_thread/thread/cfda8b82535d2d68/243777a597ec1612
Build instructions:
cd src/pkg/runtime
make clean && GOOS=plan9 make install
this will build and install the runtime.
When linking with 8l, you should pass -s to suppress symbol
generation in the a.out, otherwise the generated executable will not run.
This is runtime only, the porting of the toolchain has already
been done: http://code.google.com/p/go-plan9/source/browse
in the plan9-quanstro branch.

Because the SB is only good for 8k and Go programs
tend to have much more data than that, SB doesn't
save very much. A fmt.Printf-based hello world program
has 360 kB text segment. Removing SB makes the text
500 bytes (0.14%) longer.

On systems where the mmap succeeds
(e.g., sysctl -w vm.mmap_min_addr=0)
it changes the signal code delivered for a
nil fault from ``page not mapped'' to
``invalid permissions for page.''

Old code was using recursion to traverse object graph.
New code uses an explicit stack, cutting the per-pointer
footprint to two words during the recursion and avoiding
the standard allocator and stack splitting code.

Reduces parser runtime by 2-3%
Reduces Peano runtime by 40%
Increases tree runtime by 4-5%

Based on the observation that a great number of the types that
are copied or compared in interfaces, maps, and channels are
word-sized, this uses specialized copy and equality functions
for them that use a word instead of 4 or 8 bytes. Seems to yield
0-6% improvements in performance in the benchmarks I've run.
For example, with the regexp benchmarks:
Before:
regexp.BenchmarkLiteral 500000 3.26 µs/op
regexp.BenchmarkNotLiteral 100000 13.67 µs/op
regexp.BenchmarkMatchClass 100000 18.72 µs/op
regexp.BenchmarkMatchClass_InRange 100000 20.04 µs/op
regexp.BenchmarkReplaceAll 100000 27.85 µs/op
After:
regexp.BenchmarkLiteral 500000 3.11 µs/op
regexp.BenchmarkNotLiteral 200000 13.29 µs/op
regexp.BenchmarkMatchClass 100000 17.65 µs/op
regexp.BenchmarkMatchClass_InRange 100000 18.49 µs/op
regexp.BenchmarkReplaceAll 100000 26.34 µs/op

The runtime only passes 32 bits of file offset,
but the kernel wants 64 bits, so have to add
