And fix test. Pointer to unsafe.Pointer tests nothing important...
Also identify the incorrect type: go/types.Type is a Stringer.
Also fix a couple of incorrect format verbs found by new printf checker,
now that we can run it on more files.

No perf/semantic changes, merely improves code health.
There were several questions as to why Once.Do uses
atomic.CompareAndSwap to do a store.

This is a follow-up to CL 5978051.
Use kernel cas64 helper if we can, fallback to LDREXD/STREXD if
we are on ARMv6 or higher, and to lock-emulated cas64 if on ARMv5.
A future CL will fix {Add,Load,Store}{Int,Uint}64 and issue 3331.

Consequently, remove many package Makefiles,
and shorten the few that remain.
gomake becomes 'go tool make'.
Turn off test phases of run.bash that do not work,
flagged with $BROKEN. Future CLs will restore these,
but this seemed like a big enough CL already.

An experiment: allow structs to be copied even if they
contain unexported fields. This gives packages the
ability to return opaque values in their APIs, like reflect
does for reflect.Value but without the kludgy hacks reflect
resorts to.
In general, we trust programmers not to do silly things
like *x = *y on a package's struct pointers, just as we trust
programmers not to do unicode.Letter = unicode.Digit,
but packages that want a harder guarantee can introduce
an extra level of indirection, like in the changes to os.File
in this CL or by using an interface type.
All in one CL so that it can be rolled back more easily if
we decide this is a bad idea.

Disable the LoadInt32 and LoadUint32 tests, since they fail.
These should be fixed but we want to get through the rest of the build
to see if something else unrelated is broken. The arm build has been
bad for a long time.

For both contended and uncontended case:
- support arbitrary number of cpus (not just 2)
- dynamic load balancing (improves stability)
- periodic execution of Gosched() to work around non-preemptiviness
For uncontended case eliminates possible false-sharing.
For contended case includes additional variation with some
amount of local work between mutex operations.
