Visible changes:
- "referrers" queries now emit a stream of results,
so they start appearing quickly even in large queries.
We no longer report the total number of matches.
- packageReferrers now also uses AfterTypeCheck hook and streaming.
- XML support has been dropped.
- The -format flag has been replaced by -json.
JSON protocol changes:
- The enclosing Result struct has been removed.
- Likewise the 'mode' field (since the caller knows it already)
- "freevars" and "referrers" now emit a stream of objects
In the case of referrers, the first object has a different from the rest.
- The "referrers" results include the text of the matching line
(parity with -json=false)
Implementation details:
- the concurrency-safe q.Output function can be called
many times, each with a queryResult to print.
- fset is no longer saved in Query (cleaner)
- queryResult methods renamed PrintPlain, JSON

This CL makes little observable difference to the behavior but paves the
way for streaming 'referrers' and (later) 'implements' queries which
scan the entire workspace, but print each result as soon as it is found.
The go/loader package now exposes a hook, AfterTypeCheck, that lets
clients inspect each package as soon as it is type-checked, and also
modify it, for instance to release unneeded data structures.
A 'referrers' query applied to an exported object must scan the entire
workspace. It uses this hook so to gather uses of the query object in
streaming fashion. However, for now, it still accumulates the results
and prints them all at the end, though I propose to change that in a
follow-up.
Code details:
- The referrers logic had a 2-iteration loop to load first the query
package and then if necessary the enlarged program. The second
iteration has now been unrolled and split into globalReferrers.
- Queries for package names (whether in a package declaration or
a qualified identifier) have been split off into packageReferrers.
It now loads all direct importers of the query package,
which catches some references that were missing before.
(It used to inspect only the forward dependencies of the query
package.)
Also:
- Referrers.Pos (the position of query identifier) was removed from the
JSON output. It's a nuisance to compute now, and it's already
absent from the plain output.
(In a follow-up, I plan to simplify the information content of the
JSON output exactly what is currently printed in the plain output.)

The -modified flag causes guru to read a simple archive file from stdin.
This archive specifies alternative contents for one or more file names.
The build.Context checks this table before delegating to the usual
behavior.
This will not work for files that import "C" since cgo accesses the
file system directly.
Added end-to-end test via Emacs.
Simplify findQueryPos (now: fileOffsetToPos)
