When reading along the article, the extra code added in the final
version is not explained. The main function calls flag.Parse(), for
example, which will cause an error, unless the readers looks at the
entirety of final.go to see the import added.
The file shown to the users no longer has the extra flags. The testing
code is now in a patch that gets applied to final.go in order to create
final-test.go. This is the file that will be used to test the code,
matching final.go as much as possible.

This CL removes the remaining visible uses of the "architecture letter" concept.
(They are no longer in tool names nor in source directory names.)
Because the architecture letter concept is now gone, delete GOCHAR
from "go env" output, and change go/build.ArchChar to return an
error always.
The architecture letter is still used in the compiler and linker sources
as a clumsy architecture enumeration, but that use is not visible to
Go users and can be cleaned up separately.

The heap statistics were only written if asked for a profile with debug > 0,
but that also prints a stack trace for each profile line, which is comparatively
much noisier. The statistics are short enough and separate enough
(they only appear at the end) and useful enough that we can print them
always.
This means that people using -test.memprofile in tests will get a memory
profile with statistics included now. Pprof won't care, but if people care to
look, the numbers will be there.
This avoids the need for hacks like using -memprofilerate=1 to find
the number of allocations.

The tests in doc/progs appear to have been originally written
for use with the old test driver. At some later point,
they acquired their own test driver.
Both ran tests in serial.
This CL rewrites the current test driver in Go,
runs tests concurrently, and cleans up
historical artifacts from the old drivers.
The primary motivation is to speed up all.bash.
On my laptop, using tip, this CL reduces doc/progs test
wall time from 26s to 7s. The savings will remain
even when the compiler gets faster. Using Go 1.4,
this CL reduces test wall time from 15s to 4s.

e.g. ·Name instead of package·Name for automatic stack map to

The underlying reason is that liblink look up name with suffix
".args_stackmap" for the stackmap coming from its Go prototype,
but all the Go functions are named "".Name as this stage. Thus
an assembly function named package·Name will never find its
stackmap, which is named "".package.Name.args_stackmap.
Perhaps cmd/vet should give a warning for this.

Language clarification.
The existing rules for selector expressions imply
automatic dereferencing of pointers to struct fields.
They also implied automatic dereferencing of selectors
denoting methods. In almost all cases, such automatic
dereferencing does indeed take place for methods but the
reason is not the selector rules but the fact that method
sets include both methods with T and *T receivers; so for
a *T actual receiver, a method expecting a formal T
receiver, also accepts a *T (and the invocation or method
value expression is the reason for the auto-derefering).
However, the rules as stated so far implied that even in
case of a variable p of named pointer type P, a selector
expression p.f would always be shorthand for (*p).f. This
is true for field selectors f, but cannot be true for
method selectors since a named pointer type always has an
empty method set.
Named pointer types may never appear as anonymous field
types (and method receivers, for that matter), so this
only applies to variables declared of a named pointer
type. This is exceedingly rare and perhaps shouldn't be
permitted in the first place (but we cannot change that).
Amended the selector rules to make auto-deref of values
of named pointer types an exception to the general rules
and added corresponding examples with explanations.
Both gc and gccgo have a bug where they do auto-deref
pointers of named types in method selectors where they
should not:
