The allowed conversions before and after are:
type Tstring string
type Tbyte []byte
type Trune []rune
string <-> string // ok
string <-> []byte // ok
string <-> []rune // ok
string <-> Tstring // ok
string <-> Tbyte // was illegal, now ok
string <-> Trune // was illegal, now ok
Tstring <-> string // ok
Tstring <-> []byte // ok
Tstring <-> []rune // ok
Tstring <-> Tstring // ok
Tstring <-> Tbyte // was illegal, now ok
Tstring <-> Trune // was illegal, now ok
Update spec, compiler, tests. Use in a few packages.
We agreed on this a few months ago but never implemented it.
Fixes#1707.

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.

Not sure if this is what you'd really want. Maybe with a higher limit than 10
or perhaps keep checking nerrors > 10 per yyerror, but check the cumulative
after each function?

Got rid of all the magic mystery globals. Now
for %N, %T, and %S, the flags +,- and # set a sticky
debug, sym and export mode, only visible in the new fmt.c.
Default is error mode. Handle h and l flags consistently with
the least side effects, so we can now change
things without worrying about unrelated things
breaking.

There is no semantic change here, just better errors.
If a function says it takes a byte, and you pass it an int,
the compiler error now says that you need a byte, not
that you need a uint8.

The linker would catch them if gc succeeded,
but too often the cycle manifests as making the
current package and the imported copy of itself
appear as different packages, which result in
type signature mismatches that confuse users.
As a crutch, add the -p flag to say 'if you see an
import of this package, give up early'. Results in
messages like (during gotest in sort):
export_test.go:7: import "sort" while compiling that package (import cycle)
export_test.go:7: import "container/heap": package depends on "sort" (import cycle)

allocparams + tempname + compactframe
all knew about how to place stack variables.
Now only compactframe, renamed to allocauto,
does the work. Until the last minute, each PAUTO
variable is in its own space and has xoffset == 0.
This might break 5g. I get failures in concurrent
code running under qemu and I can't tell whether
it's 5g's fault or qemu's. We'll see what the real
ARM builders say.

Was keeping a pointer to the labeled statement in n->right,
which meant that generic traversals of the tree visited it twice.
That combined with aggressive flattening of the block
structure when possible during parsing meant that
the kinds of label: code label: code label: code sequences
generated by yacc were giving the recursion 2ⁿ paths
through the program.

-s now means *disable* escape analysis.
Fix escape leaks for struct/slice/map literals.
Add ... tracking.
Rewrite new(T) and slice literal into stack allocation when safe.
Add annotations to reflect.
Reflect is too chummy with the compiler,
so changes like these affect it more than they should.
