Update #6046.
This CL just does findnull and findnullw. There are other functions
to fix but doing them a few at a time will help isolate any (unlikely)
breakages these changes bring up in architectures I can't test
myself.

This means that pprof will no longer report profiles on OS X.
That's unfortunate, but the profiles were often wrong and, worse,
it was difficult to tell whether the profile was wrong or not.
The workarounds were making the scheduler more complex,
possibly caused a deadlock (see issue 5519), and did not actually
deliver reliable results.
It may be possible for adventurous users to apply a patch to
their kernels to get working results, or perhaps having no results
will encourage someone to do the work of creating a profiling
thread like on Windows. Issue 6047 has details.
Fixes#5519.
Fixes#6047.

Split stack checks (morestack) corrupt g->sched,
but g->sched must be preserved consistent for GC/traceback.
The change implements runtime.notetsleepg function,
which does entersyscall/exitsyscall and is carefully arranged
to not call any split functions in between.

Variables in data sections of 32-bit executables interfere with
garbage collector's ability to free objects and/or unnecessarily
slow down the garbage collector.
This changeset moves some static variables to .noptr sections.
'files' in symtab.c is now allocated dynamically.

This provides a way to generate core dumps when people need them.
The settings are:
GOTRACEBACK=0 no traceback on panic, just exit
GOTRACEBACK=1 default - traceback on panic, then exit
GOTRACEBACK=2 traceback including runtime frames on panic, then exit
GOTRACEBACK=crash traceback including runtime frames on panic, then crash
Fixes#3257.

thread_GOOS.c becomes os_GOOS.c.
signal_GOOS_GOARCH.c becomes os_GOOS_GOARCH.c,
but with non-GOARCH-specific code moved into os_GOOS.c.
The actual arch-specific signal handler moves into signal_GOARCH.c
to avoid per-GOOS duplication.
New files signal_GOOS_GOARCH.h provide macros for
accessing fields of the very system-specific signal info structs.
Lots moving, but nothing changing.
This is a preliminarly cleanup so I can work on the signal
handling code to fix some open issues without having to
make each change 13 times.
Tested on Linux and OS X, 386 and amd64.
Will fix Plan 9, Windows, and ARM after the fact if necessary.
(Plan 9 and Windows should be fine; ARM will probably have some typos.)
Net effect: -1081 lines of code.
