The previous change sped up the pure computation form of LeadingZeros8.
This places it somewhat close to the table lookup form.
Depending on something that varies from toolchain to toolchain
(alignment, perhaps?), the slowdown from ditching the table lookup
is either 20% or 5%.
This benchmark is the best case scenario for the table lookup:
It is in the L1 cache already.
I think we're close enough that we can switch to the computational version,
and trust that the memory effects and binary size savings will be worth it.

Due to some recent optimizations related to the compare
instruction, DS-form load instructions started to be used
to load 8-byte go.strings. This can cause link time errors
if the go.string is not aligned to 4 bytes.
For DS-form instructions, the value in the offset field must
be a multiple of 4. If the offset is known at the time the
rules are processed, a DS-form load will not be chosen. But for
go.strings, the offset is not known at that time, but a
relocation is generated indicating that the linker should fill
in the DS relocation. When the linker tries to fill in the
relocation, if the offset is not aligned properly, a link error
will occur.
To fix this, when loading a go.string using MOVDload, the full
address of the go.string is generated and loaded into the base
register. Then the go.string is loaded with a 0 offset field.
Added a testcase that reproduces this problem.

The escape analysis models the flow of "content" of X with a
level of "indirection" (OIND node) of X. This content can be
pointer dereference, or slice/string element. For the latter
case, the type of the OIND node should be the element type of
the slice/string. This CL fixes this. In particular, this
matters when the element type is pointerless, where the data
flow should not cause any escape.

If both inputs are constant offsets from the same pointer then we
can evaluate NeqPtr and EqPtr at compile time. Triggers a few times
during all.bash. Removes a conditional branch in the following
code:
copy(x[1:], x[:])
This branch was recently added as an optimization in CL 94596. We
now skip the memmove if the pointers are equal. However, in the
above code we know at compile time that they are never equal.
Also, when the offset is variable, check if the offset is zero
rather than if the pointers are equal. For example:
copy(x[a:], x[:])
This would now skip the copy if a == 0, rather than if x + a == x.
Finally I've also added a rule to make IsNonNil true for pointers
to values on the stack. The nil check elimination pass will catch
these anyway, but eliminating them here might eliminate branches
earlier.

There were multiple ad hoc ways to create method symbols, with subtle
and confusing differences between them. This CL unifies them into a
single well-documented encoding and implementation.
This introduces some inconsequential changes to symbol format for the
sake of simplicity and consistency. Two notable changes:
1) Symbol construction is now insensitive to the package currently
being compiled. Previously, non-exported methods on anonymous types
received different method symbols depending on whether the method was
local or imported.
2) Symbols for method values parenthesized non-pointer receiver types
and non-exported method names, and also always package-qualified
non-exported method names. Now they use the same rules as normal
method symbols.
The methodSym function is also now stricter about rejecting
non-sensical method/receiver combinations. Notably, this means that
typecheckfunc needs to call addmethod to validate the method before
calling declare, which also means we no longer emit errors about
redeclaring bogus methods.
