Type is now an interface that implements all the possible type methods.
Instead of a type switch on a reflect.Type t, switch on t.Kind().
If a method is invoked on the wrong kind of type (for example,
calling t.Field(0) when t.Kind() != Struct), the call panics.
There is one method renaming: t.(*ChanType).Dir() is now t.ChanDir().
Value is now a struct value that implements all the possible value methods.
Instead of a type switch on a reflect.Value v, switch on v.Kind().
If a method is invoked on the wrong kind of value (for example,
calling t.Recv() when t.Kind() != Chan), the call panics.
Since Value is now a struct, not an interface, its zero value
cannot be compared to nil. Instead of v != nil, use v.IsValid().
Instead of other uses of nil as a Value, use Value{}, the zero value.
Many methods have been renamed, most due to signature conflicts:
OLD NEW
v.(*ArrayValue).Elem v.Index
v.(*BoolValue).Get v.Bool
v.(*BoolValue).Set v.SetBool
v.(*ChanType).Dir v.ChanDir
v.(*ChanValue).Get v.Pointer
v.(*ComplexValue).Get v.Complex
v.(*ComplexValue).Overflow v.OverflowComplex
v.(*ComplexValue).Set v.SetComplex
v.(*FloatValue).Get v.Float
v.(*FloatValue).Overflow v.OverflowFloat
v.(*FloatValue).Set v.SetFloat
v.(*FuncValue).Get v.Pointer
v.(*InterfaceValue).Get v.InterfaceData
v.(*IntValue).Get v.Int
v.(*IntValue).Overflow v.OverflowInt
v.(*IntValue).Set v.SetInt
v.(*MapValue).Elem v.MapIndex
v.(*MapValue).Get v.Pointer
v.(*MapValue).Keys v.MapKeys
v.(*MapValue).SetElem v.SetMapIndex
v.(*PtrValue).Get v.Pointer
v.(*SliceValue).Elem v.Index
v.(*SliceValue).Get v.Pointer
v.(*StringValue).Get v.String
v.(*StringValue).Set v.SetString
v.(*UintValue).Get v.Uint
v.(*UintValue).Overflow v.OverflowUint
v.(*UintValue).Set v.SetUint
v.(*UnsafePointerValue).Get v.Pointer
v.(*UnsafePointerValue).Set v.SetPointer
Part of the motivation for this change is to enable a more
efficient implementation of Value, one that does not allocate
memory during most operations. To reduce the size of the CL,
this CL's implementation is a wrapper around the old API.
Later CLs will make the implementation more efficient without
changing the API.
Other CLs to be submitted at the same time as this one
add support for this change to gofix (4343047) and update
the Go source tree (4353043).

This change makes it possible to take the address of a
struct field or slice element in order to call a method that
requires a pointer receiver.
Existing code that uses the Value.Addr method will have
to change (as gob does in this CL) to call UnsafeAddr instead.

I have written a tool to verify Printf calls, and although it's not
ready to be reviewed yet it's already uncovered a spate of problems
in the repository. I'm sending this CL to break the changes into
pieces; as the tool improves it will find more, I'm sure.

(Argument: For any *PtrValue p, it should
always be possible to do: p.PointTo(p.Elem()),
even if p.Elem() is nil.)
Fixes#1028.

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

note the new internal_test.go and sync

not open the internals to all clients.
