Fixes#4008.
Run a background goroutine that wastes CPU to trick the
power management into raising the CPU frequency which,
by side effect, makes sleep more accurate on arm.
=== RUN TestParallelSleep
--- PASS: TestParallelSleep (1.30 seconds)

This CL adds a step to the build procedure for cgo programs. It uses 'ld -r'
to combine all gcc compiled object file and generate a relocatable object file
for our ld. Additionally, this linking step will combine some static linking
gcc library into the relocatable object file, so that we can use libgcc,
libmingwex and libmingw32 without problem.
Fixes#3261.
Fixes#1741.
Added a testcase for linking in libgcc.
TODO:
1. still need to fix the INDIRECT_SYMBOL_LOCAL problem on Darwin/386.
2. still need to enable the libgcc test on Linux/ARM, because 5l can't deal
with thumb libgcc.
Tested on Darwin/amd64, Darwin/386, FreeBSD/amd64, FreeBSD/386, Linux/amd64,
Linux/386, Linux/ARM, Windows/amd64, Windows/386

1. In CL 5989057, I made a mistake in the last minute change.
"MOVW.W R4, -4(SP)" should really be "MOVW.W R4, -4(R13)",
as 5l will rewrite offset for SP.
2. misc/cgo/test/issue1560.go tests for parallel sleep of 1s,
but on ARM, the deadline is frequently missed, so change sleep
time to 2s on ARM.

The last CL forgot the all-important 'backdoor' package.
Cgo-using packages compile .c files with gcc, but we want
to compile this one with 6c, so put it in a non-cgo package.

Also delete gotest, since it's messy to fix and slated for deletion anyway.
A couple of things outside src can't be tested any more. "go test" will be
fixed and these tests will be re-enabled. They're noisy for now.
Fixes#284.

- use proper Win64 gcc calling convention when
calling initcgo on amd64
- increase g0 stack size to 64K on amd64 to make
it the same as 386
- implement C.sleep
- do not use C.stat, since it is renamed to C._stat by mingw
- use fopen to implement TestErrno, since C.strtol
always succeeds on windows
- skip TestSetEnv on windows, because os.Setenv
sets windows process environment, while C.getenv
inspects internal C runtime variable instead

When the C API being used includes multiple names for the same
underlying symbol (e.g. multiple #define's for the same variable), then
cgo will generate the same placeholder variables for each name. This
then prevents the code from compiling due to multiple declarations of
the same variable - so change cgo to only create one instance of the
variable for the underlying symbol.

The new gotest ignores Test functions outside *_test.go files
(the old shell script allowed them), so replace one clumsy hack
with another.
The root problem is that the package makefiles only know
how to run cgo for source files in the package proper, not
for test files. Making it work for test files is probably more
trouble than it's worth.

* Change use of m->g0 stack (aka scheduler stack).
* Provide runtime.mcall(f) to invoke f() on m->g0 stack.
* Replace scheduler loop entry with runtime.mcall(schedule).
Runtime.mcall eliminates the need for fake scheduler states that
exist just to run a bit of code on the m->g0 stack
(Grecovery, Gstackalloc).
The elimination of the scheduler as a loop that stops and
starts using gosave and gogo fixes a bad interaction with the
way cgo uses the m->g0 stack. Cgo runs external (gcc-compiled)
C functions on that stack, and then when calling back into Go,
it sets m->g0->sched.sp below the added call frames, so that
other uses of m->g0's stack will not interfere with those frames.
Unfortunately, gogo (longjmp) back to the scheduler loop at
this point would end up running scheduler with the lower
sp, which no longer points at a valid stack frame for
a call to scheduler. If scheduler then wrote any function call
arguments or local variables to where it expected the stack
frame to be, it would overwrite other data on the stack.
I realized this possibility while debugging a problem with
calling complex Go code in a Go -> C -> Go cgo callback.
This wasn't the bug I was looking for, it turns out, but I believe
it is a real bug nonetheless. Switching to runtime.mcall, which
only adds new frames to the stack and never jumps into
functions running in existing ones, fixes this bug.
* Move cgo-related code out of proc.c into cgocall.c.
* Add very large comment describing cgo call sequences.
* Simpilify, regularize cgo function implementations and names.
* Add test suite as misc/cgo/test.
Now the Go -> C path calls cgocall, which calls asmcgocall,
and the C -> Go path calls cgocallback, which calls cgocallbackg.
The shuffling, which affects mainly the callback case, moves
most of the callback implementation to cgocallback running
on the m->curg stack (not the m->g0 scheduler stack) and
only while accounted for with $GOMAXPROCS (between calls
to exitsyscall and entersyscall).
The previous callback code did not block in startcgocallback's
approximation to exitsyscall, so if, say, the garbage collector
were running, it would still barge in and start doing things
like call malloc. Similarly endcgocallback's approximation of
entersyscall did not call matchmg to kick off new OS threads
when necessary, which caused the bug in issue 1560.
Fixes#1560.
