The change adds specialized type algorithms
for slices and types of size 8/16/32/64/128.
It significantly accelerates chan and map operations
for most builtin types as well as user structs.

The decision for when to say "hash/crc32".New instead of
crc32.New in an error was double-counting imports
from different packages or indirect imports, so it was
quoting even when there was no ambiguity.

Required moving some parts of gc/pgen.c to ?g/ggen.c
on linux tests pass for all 3 architectures, and
frames are actually compacted (diagnostic code for
that has been removed from the CL).

After allocparams and walk, remove unused auto variables
and re-layout the remaining in reverse alignment order.

is problematic because the liveness range for
autotmp_0000 (0006-0009) is nested completely
inside a span where BX holds a live value (0003-0015).
Because the register allocator only looks at 0006-0009
to see which registers are used, it misses the fact that
BX is unavailable and uses it anyway.
The n->pun = anyregalloc() check in tempname is
a workaround for this bug, but I hit it again because
I did the tempname call before allocating BX, even
though I then used the temporary after storing in BX.
This should fix the real bug, and then we can remove
the workaround in tempname.
The code creates pseudo-variables for each register
and includes that information in the liveness propagation.
Then the regu fields can be populated using that more
complete information. With that approach, BX is marked
as in use on every line in the whole span 0003-0015,
so that the decision about autotmp_0000
(using only 0006-0009) still has all the information
it needs.
This is not specific to the 386, but it only happens in
generated code of the form
load R1
...
load var into R2
...
store R2 back into var
...
use R1
and for the most part the other compilers generate
the loads for a given compiled line before any of
the stores. Even so, this may not be the case everywhere,
so the change is worth making in all three.

This is in preparation of escape analysis; function parameters
can now be tagged with interesting bits by the compiler by
assigning to n->note.
tested by having typecheck put a fake tag on all parameters of
pointer type and compiling the tree.
