Some tests disabled, some bifurcated into _ssa and not,
with appropriate logging added to compiler.
"tests/live.go" in particular needs attention.
SSA-specific testing removed, since it's all SSA now.
Added "-run_skips" option to tests/run.go to simplify
checking whether a test still fails (or how it fails)
on a skipped platform.
The compiler now compiles with SSA by default.
If you don't want SSA, specify GOSSAHASH=n (or N) as
an environment variable. Function names ending in "_ssa"
are always SSA-compiled.
GOSSAFUNC=fname retains its "SSA for fname, log to ssa.html"
GOSSAPKG=pkg only has an effect when GOSSAHASH=n
GOSSAHASH=10101 etc retains its name-hash-matching behavior
for purposes of debugging.

The remaining failures in this test are because of incomplete
optimization support on power64x. Tracked in issue 9058.

Globals, function arguments, and results are special cases in
registerization.
Globals must be flushed aggressively, because nearly any
operation can cause a panic, and the recovery code must see
the latest values. Globals also must be loaded aggressively,
because nearly any store through a pointer might be updating a
global: the compiler cannot see all the "address of"
operations on globals, especially exported globals. To
accomplish this, mark all globals as having their address
taken, which effectively disables registerization.
If a function contains a defer statement, the function results
must be flushed aggressively, because nearly any operation can
cause a panic, and the deferred code may call recover, causing
the original function to return the current values of its
function results. To accomplish this, mark all function
results as having their address taken if the function contains
any defer statements. This causes not just aggressive flushing
but also aggressive loading. The aggressive loading is
overkill but the best we can do in the current code.
Function arguments must be considered live at all safe points
in a function, because garbage collection always preserves
them: they must be up-to-date in order to be preserved
correctly. Accomplish this by marking them live at all call
sites. An earlier attempt at this marked function arguments as
having their address taken, which disabled registerization
completely, making programs slower. This CL's solution allows
registerization while preserving safety. The benchmark speedup
is caused by being able to registerize again (the earlier CL
lost the same amount).

This eliminates ~75% of the nil checks being emitted,
on all architectures. We can do better, but we need
a bit more general support from the compiler, and
I don't want to do that so close to Go 1.2.
What's here is simple but effective and safe.
A few small code generation cleanups were required
to make the analysis consistent on all systems about
which nil checks are omitted, at least in the test.
Fixes#6019.
