It returns the value formerly returned by Pkg(), i.e. the imported package.
Pkg() now returns the package enclosing the import statement,

- "foo$1" becomes "pkg.foo$1"
- "init$1" (meaning the first declared "init" function) becomes "init#1",
to distinguish it from "init$1" (meaning the first anonymous function
within the synthetic "init" function that initializes package-level vars).
It is now an invariant that all source-level (non-synthetic)

Blocks dominated by "if false" should be retained in the
initial SSA form so they remain visible to subsequent source
code analysis tools.
In any case, true compilers already need a stronger version of
this optimization so they can simplify CFGs such as this:
const x, y = ...
switch x {case y:...}
where a branch is constant but the comparison of constants
does not occur within an expression.

Until now, the same Function was used to represent a method
(T)func() and the "method expression" function func(T) formed
from it. So the SSA code for this:
var buf bytes.Buffer
f := Buffer.Bytes
f(buf)
buf.Bytes()
would involve an implicit cast (ChangeType) on line 2.
However, compilers based on go/ssa may want to use different
calling conventions for them, like gccgo does (see issue
7839). This change decouples them by using an anonymous
function called a "thunk", rather like this:
f := func(r *bytes.Buffer) []byte { return r.Bytes() }
Thunks are similar to method wrappers; both are created by
makeWrapper.
"Interface method wrappers" were a special case of thunks for
direct calls (no indirection/fields) of interface methods.
They are now subsumed by thunks and have been deleted. Now
that only the needed thunks are built, we don't need to
populate the concrete method sets of interface types at all,
so (*Program).Method and LookupMethod return nil for them.
This results in a slight reduction in function count (>1%) and
instruction count (<<1%).
Details:
go/ssa:
- API: ChangeType no longer supports func/method conversions.
- API: (*Program).FuncValue now returns nil for abstract
(interface) methods.
- API: (*Function).RelString simplified.
"$bound" is now a suffix not a prefix, and the receiver
type is rendered package-relative.
- API: Function.Object is now defined for all wrappers too.
- API: (*Program).Method and LookupMethod return nil for
abstract methods.
- emitConv no longer permits (non-identical)
Signature->Signature conversions. Added assertion.
- add and use isInterface helper
- sanity: we check packages after Build, not Create, otherwise
cross-package refs might fail.
go/pointer:
- update tests for new function strings.
- pointer_test: don't add non-pointerlike probes to analysis.
(The error was checked, but too late, causing a panic.)
- fixed a minor bug: if a test probe print(x) was the sole
reference to x, no nodes were generated for x.
- (reflect.Type).MethodByName: updated due to ssa API changes.
Also, fixed incorrect testdata/funcreflect.go expectation
for MethodByName on interfaces.
oracle:
- fix for new FuncValue semantics.
- a "pointsto" query on an I.f thunk now returns an error.

An identifier X in anonymous struct field struct{X} is both a
definition of a field (*Var) and reference to a type
(*TypeName). Now that we have split the map, we can capture
both of these aspects.
Interestingly, every client but one was going to extra effort
to iterate over just the uses or just the defs; this
simplifies them.
Also, fix two bug related to tagless switches:
- An entry was being recorded in the Object map for a piece of
synthetic syntax.
- The "true" identifier was being looked up in the current scope,
which allowed perverse users to locally redefine it. Now
we use the bool (not untyped boolean) constant true, per the
consequent clarification of the spec (issue 7404).

If a -pos argument is specified, a 'callgraph' query reports only the
functions within the query package. This produces a far more manageable
amount of information, and because we don't need to package-qualify the
names, the result is easier to read.
Added tests:
- callgraph query with/without -pos
(The test driver was extended to allow "nopos" queries.)
- callers and callees queries don't return wrappers
Also, in go/callgraph:

1) We remove context sensitivity from API. The pointer analysis is
not sufficiently context-sensitive for the context information to
be worth exposing. (The actual analysis precision still benefits
from being context-sensitive, though.) Since all clients would
discard the context info, we now do that for them.
2) Make the graph doubly-linked. Edges are now shared by the Nodes
at both ends of the edge so it's possible to navigate more easily
(e.g. to the callers).
3) Graph and Node are now concrete, not interfaces.

Previously, each {Indirect,}Query would return a set of Pointers, one per context; now it returns (at most) one Pointer combining information from all contexts.
The old API was more faithful to the implementation concepts, but the analysis is not sufficiently context-sensitive that it makes sense: all existing clients simply throw away the context information---so now we do that for them.
(I may remove the context-sensitivity from the callgraph too, but I'll benchmark that first to see if it reduces precision.)

Previously, each word could be a package import path or a

first word ends with ".go", all words are assumed to be
Go source files. This makes it impossible to specify

The Importer type has been replaced with Config and Program.
Clients populate a Config, directly or more usually via
convenience functions. They then call its Load() method to do
all of the typechecking and transitive-closure computation.
ssa.NewProgram and ssa.CreatePackages have been fused into
ssa.Create, which now cannot fail, since (*Config).Load()
reports all type errors.
Also:
- The addition of an ssa.GlobalDebug builder mode flag
eliminates a loop-over-packages repeated in many clients.
- PackageInfo.Err flag unexported. Clients never see bad infos now.
- cmd/ssadump: now only looks for func "main" in package "main".
- importsOf deleted, was dead code.
STILL TODO:
- ParseFile seems like API creep (though it's convenient)
and CreateFromFiles is dangerous (w.r.t. FileSet identity).
Need to think more...
- the need for clients to rely on elementwise correspondence
of Config.CreatePkgs and Program.Created is a little sad.
- The command-line interface has not changed.
That will happen in a follow-up.

Packages were not being created for all types.Packages,
specifically, indirectly imported packages were missing.
(*Program).CreatePackages now iterates over the type-checker's
package map too.
Also: removed all concurrency from importer. I think it was
incorrect (and hard to fix).
Also: change LoadInitialPackages so that all named packages
are loaded from source. This happens regardless of whether
GCImporter is used to satisfy imports.
Details:
- importer.Config.SourceImports flag determines whether to
load all packages from *.go source.
(Before, this was indicated by Config.Build != nil.)
- importer.Config.Build field effectively defaults to
&go/build.Default. A zero importer.Config is now usable.
- importer.Importer.Config field is now exported.
- LoadPackage renamed to ImportPackage since the resulting
packages may come from GCImporter (and be incomplete).
- doImport and ImportPackage fused.

Command set:
- what: an extremely fast query that parses a single
file and returns the AST stack, package name and the
set of query modes that apply to the current selection.
Intended for GUI tools that need to grey out UI elements.
- definition: shows the definition of an identifier.
- pointsto: the PTA features of 'describe' have been split
out into their own command.
- describe: with PTA stripped out, the cost is now bounded by
type checking.
Performance:
- The importer.Config.TypeCheckFuncBodies predicate supports
setting the 'IgnoreFuncBodies' typechecker flag on a
per-package basis. This means we can load dependencies from
source more quickly if we only need exported types.
(We avoid gcimport data because it may be absent or stale.)
This also means we can run type-based queries on packages
that aren't part of the pointer analysis scope. (Yay.)
- Modes that require only type analysis of the query package
run a "what" query first, and restrict their analysis scope
to just that package and its dependencies (sans func
bodies), making them much faster.
- We call newOracle not oracle.New in Query, so that the
'needs' bitset isn't ignored (oops!). This makes the
non-PTA queries faster.
Also:
- removed vestigial timers junk.
- pos.go: existing position utilties split out into own file.
Added parsePosFlag utility.
- numerous cosmetic tweaks.

A DebugRef associates a source expression E with an ssa.Value
V, but until now did not record whether V was the value or the
address of E. So, we would guess from the "pointerness" of
the Value, leading to confusion in some cases, e.g.
type N *N
var n N
n = &n // lvalue and rvalue are both pointers
Now we explicitly record 'IsAddress bool' in DebugRef, and
plumb this everywhere: through (*Function).ValueForExpr and
(*Program).VarValue, all the way to forming the pointer
analysis query.
Also:
- VarValue now treats each reference to a global distinctly,
just like it does for other vars. So:
var g int
func f() {
g = 1 // VarValue(g) == Const(1:int), !isAddress
print(g) // VarValue(g) == Global(g), isAddress
}
- DebugRefs are not emitted for references to predeclared
identifiers (nil, built-in).
- DebugRefs no longer prevent lifting of an Alloc var into a
register; now we update or discard the debug info.
- TestValueForExpr: improve coverage of ssa.EnclosingFunction
by putting expectations in methods and init funcs, not just
normal funcs.
- oracle: fix golden file broken by recent
(*types.Var).IsField change.
