Pkg() now returns the package enclosing the import statement,
which is consistent with all other Objects.

Method-set caching is now performed externally using a MethodSetCache (if desired), not by the Types themselves.
This a minor deoptimization due to the extra maps, but avoids a situation in which method-sets are computed and frozen prematurely. (See b/7114)

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.
+ very basic tests.
To do in follow-ups:
- sophisticated editor integration of "what".
- better tests.
- refactoring of control flow as described in comment.
- changes to "implements", "describe" commands.
- update design doc + user manual.

Once submitted, clients of go/types that don't explicitly
specify Config.Import will need to add the extra import:

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.

Also: simplified error handling.
Eliminated oracle.errorf because it prepends "file:line:col: "
to the error message so the main function can't safely prepend "Error: ".
The position wasn't interesting though: it was just -pos, more or less.

This CL is mostly a renaming s/json/serial/, abstracting the
oracle package away from any particular data syntax. (The
encoding/* machinery is very clean; clearly I should have
structured it this way from the outset.)
Supporting XML then becomes a one-liner in cmd/oracle/main.go.
Also: call MarshalIndent(), not Marshall() then Indent().

The existing standalone Query function builds an importer, ssa.Program, oracle,
and query position, executes the query and returns the result.
For clients (such as Frederik Zipp's web-based github.com/fzipp/pythia tool)
that wish to load the program once and make several queries, we now expose
these as separate operations too. Here's a client, in pseudocode:
o := oracle.New(...)
for ... {
qpos := o.ParseQueryPos(...)
res := o.Query(mode, qpos)
print result
}
NB: this is a slight deoptimisation in the one-shot case since we have to
build the entire SSA program with debug info, not just the query package,
since we now don't know the query package at that time.
The 'exact' param to ParseQueryPos needs more thought since its
ideal value is a function of the query mode. This will do for now.
Details:
- expose Oracle type, New() func and Query() method.
- expose QueryPos type and ParseQueryPos func.
- improved package doc comment.
- un-exposed the "needs" bits.
- added test.

Core:
reflect.TypeOf
reflect.ValueOf
reflect.Zero
reflect.Value.Interface
Maps:
(reflect.Value).MapIndex
(reflect.Value).MapKeys
(reflect.Value).SetMapIndex
(*reflect.rtype).Elem
(*reflect.rtype).Key
+ tests:
pointer/testdata/mapreflect.go.
oracle/testdata/src/main/reflection.go.
Interface objects (T, V...) have been renamed "tagged objects".
Abstraction: we model reflect.Value similar to
interface{}---as a pointer that points only to tagged
objects---but a reflect.Value may also point to an "indirect
tagged object", one in which the payload V is of type *T not T.
These are required because reflect.Values can hold lvalues,
e.g. when derived via Field() or Elem(), though we won't use
them till we get to structs and pointers.
Solving: each reflection intrinsic defines a new constraint
and resolution rule. Because of the nature of reflection,
generalizing across types, the resolution rules dynamically
create additional complex constraints during solving, where
previously only simple (copy) constraints were created.
This requires some solver changes:
The work done before the main solver loop (to attach new
constraints to the graph) is now done before each iteration,
in processNewConstraints.
Its loop over constraints is broken into two passes:
the first handles base (addr-of) constraints,
the second handles simple and complex constraints.
constraint.init() has been inlined. The only behaviour that
varies across constraints is ptr()
Sadly this will pessimize presolver optimisations, when we get
there; such is the price of reflection.
Objects: reflection intrinsics create objects (i.e. cause
memory allocations) with no SSA operation. We will represent
them as the cgnode of the instrinsic (e.g. reflect.New), so we
extend Labels and node.data to represent objects as a product
(not sum) of ssa.Value and cgnode and pull this out into its
own type, struct object. This simplifies a number of
invariants and saves space. The ntObject flag is now
represented by obj!=nil; the other flags are moved into
object.
cgnodes are now always recorded in objects/Labels for which it
is appropriate (all but those for globals, constants and the
shared contours for functions).
Also:
- Prepopulate the flattenMemo cache to consider reflect.Value
a fake pointer, not a struct.
- Improve accessors and documentation on type Label.
- @conctypes assertions renamed @types (since dyn. types needn't be concrete).
- add oracle 'describe' test on an interface (missing, an oversight).

Background: some ssa.Values represent lvalues, e.g.
var g = new(string)
the *ssa.Global g is a **string, the address of what users
think of as the global g.
Querying pts(g) returns a singleton containing the object g, a
*string. What users really want to see is what that in turn
points to, i.e. the label for the call to new().
This change now lets users make "indirect" pointer queries,
i.e. for pts(*v) where v is an ssa.Value. The oracle makes an
indirect query if the type of the ssa.Value differs from the
source expression type by a pointer, i.e. it's an lvalue.
In other words, we're hiding the fact that compilers (e.g. ssa) internally represent globals by their address.
+ Tests.
This serendipitously fixed an outstanding bug mentioned in the
describe.go

Motivation: pointer analysis tools (like the oracle) want the
user to specify a set of initial packages, like 'go test'.
This change enables the user to specify a set of packages on
the command line using importer.LoadInitialPackages(args).
Each argument is interpreted as either:
- a comma-separated list of *.go source files together
comprising one non-importable ad-hoc package.
e.g. "src/pkg/net/http/triv.go" gives us [main].
- an import path, denoting both the imported package
and its non-importable external test package, if any.
e.g. "fmt" gives us [fmt, fmt_test].
Current type-checker limitations mean that only the first
import path may contribute tests: multiple packages augmented
by *_test.go files could create import cycles, which 'go test'
avoids by building a separate executable for each one.
That approach is less attractive for static analysis.
Details: (many files touched, but importer.go is the crux)
importer:
- PackageInfo.Importable boolean indicates whether
package is importable.
- un-expose Importer.Packages; expose AllPackages() instead.
- CreatePackageFromArgs has become LoadInitialPackages.
- imports() moved to util.go, renamed importsOf().
- InitialPackagesUsage usage message exported to clients.
- the package name for ad-hoc packages now comes from the
'package' decl, not "main".
ssa.Program:
- added CreatePackages() method
- PackagesByPath un-exposed, renamed 'imported'.
- expose AllPackages and ImportedPackage accessors.
oracle:
- describe: explain and workaround a go/types bug.
Misc:
- Removed various unnecessary error.Error() calls in Printf args.

The typechecker uses *types.Func for functions, concrete
methods and interface methods; and *types.Var for variables
and struct fields. This change makes clear which kind of
function we're describing. (We can't do it for vars since
go/types doesn't expose enough information, yet.)
Also: add "omitempty" to one JSON field.

+ Tests, based on (small) golden files.
Overview:
Each <query>Result structure has been "lowered" so that all
but the most trivial logic in each display() function has
been moved to the main query.
Each one now has a toJSON method that populates a json.Result
struct. Though the <query>Result structs are similar to the
correponding JSON protocol, they're not close enough to be
used directly; for example, the former contain richer
semantic entities (token.Pos, ast.Expr, ssa.Value,
pointer.Pointer, etc) whereas JSON contains only their
printed forms using Go basic types.
The choices of what levels of abstractions the two sets of
structs should have is somewhat arbitrary. We may want
richer information in the JSON output in future.
Details:
- oracle.Main has been split into oracle.Query() and the
printing of the oracle.Result.
- the display() method no longer needs an *oracle param, only
a print function.
- callees: sort the result for determinism.
- callees: compute the union across all contexts.
- callers: sort the results for determinism.
- describe(package): fixed a bug in the predicate for method
accessibility: an unexported method defined in pkg A may
belong to a type defined in package B (via
embedding/promotion) and may thus be accessible to A. New
accessibleMethods() utility fixes this.
- describe(type): filter methods by accessibility.
- added tests of 'callgraph'.
- pointer: eliminated the 'caller CallGraphNode' parameter from
pointer.Context.Call callback since it was redundant w.r.t
site.Caller().
- added warning if CGO_ENABLED is unset.
