The new rules for split functions mean that we are exposed
to the common bug of a function that loops forever at EOF.
Pick these off by shutting down the scanner if too many
consecutive empty tokens are delivered.
Fixes#9020.

The test intended to skip direct calls when creating
registerization variables was testing p->to.type instead of
p->to.name, so it always failed, causing regopt to create
unnecessary variables for these names.

One failing case this removes is:
var bytes = []byte("hello, world")
var copy_bytes = bytes
We could handle this in the compiler, but it requires special
case for a variable that is initialized to the value of a
variable that is initialized to a string literal converted to
[]byte. This seems an unlikely case--it never occurs in the
standrd library--and it seems unnecessary to write the code to
handle it.
If we do want to support this case, one approach is
https://golang.org/cl/171840043.
The other failing cases are of the form
var bx bool
var copy_bx = bx
The compiler used to initialize copy_bx to false. However,
that led to issue 7665, since bx may be initialized in non-Go
code. The compiler no longer assumes that bx must be false,
so copy_bx can not be statically initialized.
We can fix these with https://golang.org/cl/169040043
if we also pass -complete to the compiler as part of this
test. This is OK but it's too late in the release cycle.

The check for unknown command line debug flags in gc was
incorrect: the loop over debugtab terminates when it reaches a
nil entry, but it was only reporting an error if the parser
had passed the last entry of debugtab (which it never did).
Fix this by reporting the usage error if the loop reaches a
nil entry.

Previously, the flags argument to mallocgc was an int in Go,
but a uint32 in C. Change the Go type to use uint32 so these
agree. The largest flag value is 2 (and of course no flag
values are negative), so this won't change anything on little
endian architectures, but it matters on big endian.

If you get a stack of PCs from Callers, it would be expected
that every PC is immediately after a call instruction, so to find
the line of the call, you look up the line for PC-1.
CL 163550043 now explicitly documents that.
The most common exception to this is the top-most return PC
on the stack, which is the entry address of the runtime.goexit
function. Subtracting 1 from that PC will end up in a different
function entirely.
To remove this special case, make the top-most return PC
goexit+PCQuantum and then implement goexit in assembly
so that the first instruction can be skipped.

Originally traceback was only used for printing the stack
when an unexpected signal came in. In that case, the
initial PC is taken from the signal and should be used
unaltered. For the callers, the PC is the return address,
which might be on the line after the call; we subtract 1
to get to the CALL instruction.
Traceback is now used for a variety of things, and for
almost all of those the initial PC is a return address,
whether from getcallerpc, or gp->sched.pc, or gp->syscallpc.
In those cases, we need to subtract 1 from this initial PC,
but the traceback code had a hard rule "never subtract 1
from the initial PC", left over from the signal handling days.
Change gentraceback to take a flag that specifies whether
we are tracing a trap.
Change traceback to default to "starting with a return PC",
which is the overwhelmingly common case.
Add tracebacktrap, like traceback but starting with a trap PC.
Use tracebacktrap in signal handlers.

goprintf is a printf-like print for Go.
It is used in the code generated by 'defer print(...)' and 'go print(...)'.
Normally print(1, 2, 3) turns into
printint(1)
printint(2)
printint(3)
but defer and go need a single function call to give the runtime;
they give the runtime something like goprintf("%d%d%d", 1, 2, 3).
Variadic functions like goprintf cannot be described in the new
type information world, so we have to replace it.
Replace with a custom function, so that defer print(1, 2, 3) turns
into
defer func(a1, a2, a3 int) {
print(a1, a2, a3)
}(1, 2, 3)
(and then the print becomes three different printints as usual).
Fixes#8614.

In CL 160670043 the write function was changed
so a zero-length write is now allowed. This leads
the ExampleWriter_Init test to fail.
The reason is that Plan 9 preserves message
boundaries, while the os library expects systems
that don't preserve them. We have to ignore
zero-length writes so they will never turn into EOF.
This issue was previously discussed in CL 7406046.
