Before, the mheap structure was in the bss,
but it's quite large (today, 256 MB, much of
which is never actually paged in), and it makes
Go binaries run afoul of exec-time bss size
limits on some BSD systems.

In addition to the compile failure fixed in signal*.c,
preserving the signal mask led to very strange crashes.
Testing shows that looking for SIG_IGN is all that
matters to get along with nohup, so reintroduce
sigset_zero instead of trying to preserve the signal mask.

There are two ways nohup(1) might be implemented:
it might mask away the signal, or it might set the handler
to SIG_IGN, both of which are inherited across fork+exec.
So two fixes:
* Make sure to preserve the inherited signal mask at
minit instead of clearing it.
* If the SIGHUP handler is SIG_IGN, leave it that way.
Fixes#4491.

Binary data in mprof.goc may prevent the garbage collector from freeing
memory blocks. This patch replaces all calls to runtime·mallocgc() with
calls to an allocator private to mprof.goc, thus making the private
memory invisible to the garbage collector. The addrhash variable is
moved outside of the .bss section.

This change also resolves some issues with note handling: we now make
sure that there is enough room at the bottom of every goroutine to
execute the note handler, and the `exitstatus' is no longer a global
entity, which resolves some race conditions.

This is for SPARC64, a 64-bit processor that uses all 64-bits
of virtual addresses. The idea is to use the low order 3 bits
to at least get a small ABA counter. That should work since
pointers are aligned. The idea is for SPARC64 to set CNT_MASK
== 7, PTR_BITS == 0, PTR_MASK == 0xffffffffffffff8.
Also add uintptr casts to avoid GCC warnings. The gccgo
runtime code is compiled with GCC, and GCC warns when casting
between a pointer and a type of a different size.

The Plan 9 symbol table format defines big-endian symbol values
for portability, but we want to be able to generate an ELF object file
and let the host linker link it, as part of the solution to issue 4069.
The symbol table itself, since it is loaded into memory at run time,
must be filled in by the final host linker, using relocation directives
to set the symbol values. On a little-endian machine, the linker will
only fill in little-endian values during relocation, so we are forced
to use little-endian symbol values.
To preserve most of the original portability of the symbol table
format, we make the table itself say whether it uses big- or
little-endian values. If the table begins with the magic sequence
fe ff ff ff 00 00
then the actual table begins after those six bytes and contains
little-endian symbol values. Otherwise, the table is in the original
format and contains big-endian symbol values. The magic sequence
looks like an "end of table" entry (the fifth byte is zero), so legacy
readers will see a little-endian table as an empty table.
All the gc architectures are little-endian today, so the practical
effect of this CL is to make all the generated tables little-endian,
but if a big-endian system comes along, ld will not generate
the magic sequence, and the various readers will fall back to the
original big-endian interpretation.
