* Change use of m->g0 stack (aka scheduler stack).
* Provide runtime.mcall(f) to invoke f() on m->g0 stack.
* Replace scheduler loop entry with runtime.mcall(schedule).
Runtime.mcall eliminates the need for fake scheduler states that
exist just to run a bit of code on the m->g0 stack
(Grecovery, Gstackalloc).
The elimination of the scheduler as a loop that stops and
starts using gosave and gogo fixes a bad interaction with the
way cgo uses the m->g0 stack. Cgo runs external (gcc-compiled)
C functions on that stack, and then when calling back into Go,
it sets m->g0->sched.sp below the added call frames, so that
other uses of m->g0's stack will not interfere with those frames.
Unfortunately, gogo (longjmp) back to the scheduler loop at
this point would end up running scheduler with the lower
sp, which no longer points at a valid stack frame for
a call to scheduler. If scheduler then wrote any function call
arguments or local variables to where it expected the stack
frame to be, it would overwrite other data on the stack.
I realized this possibility while debugging a problem with
calling complex Go code in a Go -> C -> Go cgo callback.
This wasn't the bug I was looking for, it turns out, but I believe
it is a real bug nonetheless. Switching to runtime.mcall, which
only adds new frames to the stack and never jumps into
functions running in existing ones, fixes this bug.
* Move cgo-related code out of proc.c into cgocall.c.
* Add very large comment describing cgo call sequences.
* Simpilify, regularize cgo function implementations and names.
* Add test suite as misc/cgo/test.
Now the Go -> C path calls cgocall, which calls asmcgocall,
and the C -> Go path calls cgocallback, which calls cgocallbackg.
The shuffling, which affects mainly the callback case, moves
most of the callback implementation to cgocallback running
on the m->curg stack (not the m->g0 scheduler stack) and
only while accounted for with $GOMAXPROCS (between calls
to exitsyscall and entersyscall).
The previous callback code did not block in startcgocallback's
approximation to exitsyscall, so if, say, the garbage collector
were running, it would still barge in and start doing things
like call malloc. Similarly endcgocallback's approximation of
entersyscall did not call matchmg to kick off new OS threads
when necessary, which caused the bug in issue 1560.
Fixes#1560.

#pragma dynexport is no longer needed for
this use of cgo, since the gcc and gc code are
now linked together into the same binary.
It may still be necessary later.
On the Mac, you cannot use the GOT to resolve
symbols that exist in the current binary, so 6l and 8l
translate the GOT-loading mov instructions into lea
instructions.
On ELF systems, we could use the GOT for those
symbols, but for consistency 6l and 8l apply the
same translation.
The translation is sketchy in the extreme
(depending on the relocation being in a mov
instruction) but it verifies that the instruction
is a mov before rewriting it to lea.
Also makes typedefs global across files.

parsing and printing to new syntax.
Use -oldparser to parse the old syntax,
use -oldprinter to print the old syntax.
2) Change default gofmt formatting settings
to use tabs for indentation only and to use
spaces for alignment. This will make the code
alignment insensitive to an editor's tabwidth.
Use -spaces=false to use tabs for alignment.
3) Manually changed src/exp/parser/parser_test.go
so that it doesn't try to parse the parser's
source files using the old syntax (they have
new syntax now).
4) gofmt -w src misc test/bench

This change removes the necessity to have GOBIN in $PATH,
and also doesn't assume that the build is being run from
$GOROOT/src. This is a minimal set of necessary changes

the bash scripts and makefiles for building go didn't take into account
the fact $GOROOT / $GOBIN could both be directories containing whitespaces,
and was not possible to build it in such a situation.
this commit adjusts the various makefiles/scripts to make it aware of that
possibility, and now it builds successfully when using a path with whitespaces
as well.
