Allows passing regexps per subtest to --test.run and --test.bench
Note that the documentation explicitly states that the split regular
expressions match the correpsonding parts (path components) of
the bench/test identifier. This is intended and slightly different
from the i'th RE matching the subtest/subbench at the respective
level. Picking this semantics allows guaranteeing that a test or
benchmark identifier as printed by go test can be passed verbatim
(possibly quoted) to, respectively, -run or -bench: subtests and
subbenches might have a '/' in their name, causing a misaligment if
their ID is passed to -run or -bench as is.
This semantics has other benefits, but this is the main motivation.

- Skipped benchmarks now print a SKIP line, also if there was

- The benchmark name is only printed if there the benchmark

It also fixes a bug of doubling a skip message in chatty mode in

The chatty flag is now passed in the common struct to allow

especially if that means there's stutter in the documentation or it

This change is a manual audit & cleanup of public func signatures.

Recursive types R containing slices of R's did not terminate despite the
effort in CL 10821.
For recursive types there was a competition between slice expansion by a
factor 'complexSize', and termination with probability '1/complexSize'
which lead to stack overflow as soon as a recursive struct had slices
pointing to its own type.
Fix this by shrinking the size hint as a function of recursion depth.
This has the dual effect of reducing the number of elements generated
per slice and also increasing the probability for termination.

never generated, which seems more like an oversight than an intentional
choice.
The lack of nil values meant that testing recursive type like
type Node struct {
Next *Node
}
with testing/quick would lead to a stack overflow since the data
structure would never terminate.
This change may break tests that don't check for nil with pointers
returned from quick.Value. Two such instances were found in the standard
library, one of which was in the testing/quick package itself.

This commit is largely cosmetic in the sense that it is the remnants
of a change proposal I had prepared for testing/quick, until I
discovered that 3e9ed27 already implemented the feature I was looking
for: quick.Value() for reflect.Kind Array. What you see is a merger
and manual cleanup; the cosmetic cleanups are as follows:
(1.) Keeping the TestCheckEqual and its associated input functions
in the same order as type kinds defined in reflect.Kind. Since
3e9ed27 was committed, the test case began to diverge from the
constant's ordering.
(2.) The `Intptr` derivatives existed to exercise quick.Value with
reflect.Kind's `Ptr` constant. All `Intptr` (unrelated to `uintptr`)
in the test have been migrated to ensure the parallelism of the
listings and to convey that `Intptr` is not special.
(3.) Correct a misspelling (transposition) of "alias", whereby it is
named as "Alais".
