With this change the compiler emits a bitmap for each function
covering its stack frame arguments area. If an argument word
is known to contain a pointer, a bit is set. The garbage
collector reads this information when scanning the stack by
frames and uses it to ignores locations known to not contain a
pointer.

Once page table is moved out of heap, the heap becomes small.
This removes unnecessary dereferences during heap access.

This removes the 256MB memory allocation at startup,
which conflicts with ulimit.
Also will allow to eliminate an unnecessary memory dereference in GC,
because the page table is usually mapped at known address.

««« original CL description
runtime: introduce helper persistentalloc() function
It is a caching wrapper around SysAlloc() that can allocate small chunks.
Use it for symtab allocations. Reduces number of symtab walks from 4 to 3
(reduces buildfuncs time from 10ms to 7.5ms on a large binary,
reduces initial heap size by 680K on the same binary).
Also can be used for type info allocation, itab allocation.
There are also several places in GC where we do the same thing,
they can be changed to use persistentalloc().
Also can be used in FixAlloc, because each instance of FixAlloc allocates
in 128K regions, which is too eager.

Variables in data sections of 32-bit executables interfere with
garbage collector's ability to free objects and/or unnecessarily
slow down the garbage collector.
This changeset moves some static variables to .noptr sections.
'files' in symtab.c is now allocated dynamically.

This text is added to doc.go:
Explicit argument indexes:
In Printf, Sprintf, and Fprintf, the default behavior is for each
formatting verb to format successive arguments passed in the call.
However, the notation [n] immediately before the verb indicates that the
nth one-indexed argument is to be formatted instead. The same notation
before a '*' for a width or precision selects the argument index holding
the value. After processing a bracketed expression [n], arguments n+1,
n+2, etc. will be processed unless otherwise directed.
For example,
fmt.Sprintf("%[2]d %[1]d\n", 11, 22)
will yield "22, 11", while
fmt.Sprintf("%[3]*[2].*[1]f", 12.0, 2, 6),
equivalent to
fmt.Sprintf("%6.2f", 12.0),
will yield " 12.00". Because an explicit index affects subsequent verbs,
this notation can be used to print the same values multiple times
by resetting the index for the first argument to be repeated:
fmt.Sprintf("%d %d %#[1]x %#x", 16, 17)
will yield "16 17 0x10 0x11".
The notation chosen differs from that in C, but I believe it's easier to read
and to remember (we're indexing the arguments), and compatibility with
C's printf was never a strong goal anyway.
While we're here, change the word "field" to "arg" or "argument" in the
code; it was being misused and was confusing.

This only affects calls where both ReaderFrom and WriterTo are implemented. WriterTo can issue one large write, while ReaderFrom must Read until EOF, potentially reallocating when out of memory. With one large Write, the Writer only needs to allocate once.
This also helps in ioutil.Discard since we can avoid copying memory when the Reader implements WriterTo.
