This change breaks out most of the atomics functions in the runtime
into package runtime/internal/atomic. It adds some basic support
in the toolchain for runtime packages, and also modifies linux/arm
atomics to remove the dependency on the runtime's mutex. The mutexes
have been replaced with spinlocks.
all trybots are happy!
In addition to the trybots, I've tested on the darwin/arm64 builder,
on the darwin/arm builder, and on a ppc64le machine.

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.

Currently its possible for the garbage collector to observe
uninitialized memory or stale heap bitmap bits on weakly ordered
architectures such as ARM and PPC. On such architectures, the stores
that zero newly allocated memory and initialize its heap bitmap may
move after a store in user code that makes the allocated object
observable by the garbage collector.
To fix this, add a "publication barrier" (also known as an "export
barrier") before returning from mallocgc. This is a store/store
barrier that ensures any write done by user code that makes the
returned object observable to the garbage collector will be ordered
after the initialization performed by mallocgc. No barrier is
necessary on the reading side because of the data dependency between
loading the pointer and loading the contents of the object.
Fixes one of the issues raised in #9984.

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.
