This will make it possible for C++ code to #include the export header
file and see the correct declarations.
The preamble remains the user's responsibility. It would not be
appropriate to wrap the preamble in extern "C", because it might
include header files that work with both C and C++. Putting those
header files in an extern "C" block would break them.

The -exportheader option tells cgo to generate a header file declaring
expoted functions. The header file is only created if there are, in
fact, some exported functions, so it also serves as a signal as to
whether there were any.
In future CLs the go tool will use this option to install header files
for packages that use cgo and export functions.

This extends the cgo changes in http://golang.org/cl/8094 to gccgo.
It also adds support for setting runtime_iscgo correctly for gccgo;
the gc runtime bases the variable on the runtime/cgo package, but
gccgo has no equivalent to that package.
The go tool supports -buildmode=c-archive for gccgo by linking all the
Go objects together using -r. For convenience this object is then put
into an archive file.
The go tool now passes -fsplit-stack when building C code for gccgo on
386 and amd64. This is required for using -r and will also cut down
on unnecessary stack splits.
The go tool no longer applies standard package cgo LDFLAGS when using
gccgo. This is mainly to avoid getting confused by the LDFLAGS in the
runtime/cgo package that gccgo does not use.

This is Part 2 of the change, see Part 1 here: in https://go-review.googlesource.com/#/c/7692/
Suggested by iant@, we use the library initialization entry point to:
- create a new OS thread and run the "regular" runtime init stack on
that thread
- return immediately from the main (i.e., loader) thread
- at the first CGO invocation, we wait for the runtime initialization
to complete.
The above mechanism is implemented only on linux_amd64. Next step is to
support it on linux_arm. Other platforms don't yet support shared library
compiling/linking, but we intend to use the same strategy there as well.

cmd/cgo: disable clang's integrated assembler
Fixes#8348.
Clang's internal assembler (introduced by default in clang 3.4) understands the .arch directive, but doesn't change the default value of -march. This causes the build to fail when we use BLX (armv5 and above) when clang is compiled for the default armv4t architecture (which appears to be the default on all the distros I've used).
This is probably a clang bug, so work around it for the time being by disabling the integrated assembler when compiling the cgo assembly shim.
This CL also includes a small change to ldelf.c which was required as clang 3.4 and above generate more weird symtab entries.

return values, read the stktop before and after the cgo call to

In linker, refuse to write conservative (array of pointers) as the
garbage collection type for any variable in the data/bss GC program.
In the linker, attach the Go type to an already-read C declaration
during dedup. This gives us Go types for C globals for free as long
as the cmd/dist-generated Go code contains the declaration.
(Most runtime C declarations have a corresponding Go declaration.
Both are bss declarations and so the linker dedups them.)
In cmd/dist, add a few more C files to the auto-Go-declaration list
in order to get Go type information for the C declarations into the linker.
In C compiler, mark all non-pointer-containing global declarations
and all string data as NOPTR. This allows them to exist in C files
without any corresponding Go declaration. Count C function pointers
as "non-pointer-containing", since we have no heap-allocated C functions.
In runtime, add NOPTR to the remaining pointer-containing declarations,
none of which refer to Go heap objects.
In runtime, also move os.Args and syscall.envs data into runtime-owned
variables. Otherwise, in programs that do not import os or syscall, the
runtime variables named os.Args and syscall.envs will be missing type
information.
I believe that this CL eliminates the final source of conservative GC scanning
in non-SWIG Go programs, and therefore...

In cgo, now that recursive calls to typeConv.Type() always work,
we can more robustly calculate the array sizes based on the size
of our element type.
Also, in debug/dwarf, the decision to call zeroType is made
based on a type's usage within a particular struct, but dwarf.Type
values are cached in typeCache, so the modification might affect
uses of the type in other structs. Current compilers don't appear
to share DWARF type entries for "[]foo" and "[0]foo", but they also
don't consistently share type entries in other cases. Arguably
modifying the types is an improvement in some cases, but varying
translated types according to compiler whims seems like a bad idea.
Lastly, also in debug/dwarf, zeroType only needs to rewrite the
top-level dimension, and only if the rest of the array size is
non-zero.
