Since barrier-less memclr is only safe in very narrow circumstances,
this commit renames memclr to avoid accidentally calling memclr on
typed memory. This can cause subtle, non-deterministic bugs, so it's
worth some effort to prevent. In the near term, this will also prevent
bugs creeping in from any concurrent CLs that add calls to memclr; if
this happens, whichever patch hits master second will fail to compile.
This also adds the other new memclr variants to the compiler's
builtin.go to minimize the churn on that binary blob. We'll use these
in future commits.
Updates #17503.

Replace the confusing game where a frame size of $-8 would suppress the
implicit setting up of a stack frame with a nice explicit flag.
The code to set up the function prologue is still a little confusing but better
than it was.

All of the architectures except ppc64 have only "RET" for the return
mnemonic. ppc64 used to have only "RETURN", but commit cf06ea6
introduced RET as a synonym for RETURN to make ppc64 consistent with
the other architectures. However, that commit was never followed up to
make the code itself consistent by eliminating uses of RETURN.
This commit replaces all uses of RETURN in the ppc64 assembly with
RET.
This was done with
sed -i 's/\<RETURN\>/RET/' **/*_ppc64x.s
plus one manual change to syscall/asm.s.
