ec75230b55 reflect: document equality guarantee for Type
The only previous mention of this property was in the String() method.
Since this is the only way to uniquely identify a type and we can't
change this property without breaking the Go 1 guarantee, it seems
better to document this property than hiding it on a method.

Fixes #16348

1f4e68d92b reflect: an unnamed type has no PkgPath
The reflect package was returning a non-empty PkgPath for an unnamed
type with methods, such as a type whose methods have a pointer
receiver.

Fixes #16328.

ed9362f769 reflect, runtime: optimize Name method
Several minor changes that remove a good chunk of the overhead added
to the reflect Name method over the 1.7 cycle, as seen from the
non-SSA architectures.

In particular, there are ~20 fewer instructions in reflect.name.name
on 386, and the method now qualifies for inlining.

The simple JSON decoding benchmark on darwin/386:

	name           old time/op    new time/op    delta
	CodeDecoder-8    49.2ms ± 0%    48.9ms ± 1%  -0.77%  (p=0.000 n=10+9)

	name           old speed      new speed      delta
	CodeDecoder-8  39.4MB/s ± 0%  39.7MB/s ± 1%  +0.77%  (p=0.000 n=10+9)

On darwin/amd64 the effect is less pronounced:

	name           old time/op    new time/op    delta
	CodeDecoder-8    38.9ms ± 0%    38.7ms ± 1%  -0.38%  (p=0.005 n=10+10)

	name           old speed      new speed      delta
	CodeDecoder-8  49.9MB/s ± 0%  50.1MB/s ± 1%  +0.38%  (p=0.006 n=10+10)

Counterintuitively, I get much more useful benchmark data out of my
MacBook Pro than a linux workstation with more expensive Intel chips.
While the laptop has fewer cores and an active GUI, the single-threaded
performance is significantly better (nearly 1.5x decoding throughput)
so the differences are more pronounced.

For #16117.

e369490fb7 cmd/compile, etc: bring back ptrToThis
This was removed in CL 19695 but it slows down reflect.New, which ends
up on the hot path of things like JSON decoding.

There is no immediate cost in binary size, but it will make it harder to

a20fd1f6ba runtime: reclaim scan/dead bit in first word
With the switch to separate mark bitmaps, the scan/dead bit for the
first word of each object is now unused. Reclaim this bit and use it
as a scan/dead bit, just like words three and on. The second word is
still used for checkmark.

This dramatically simplifies heapBitsSetTypeNoScan and hasPointers,
since they no longer need different cases for 1, 2, and 3+ word
objects. They can instead just manipulate the heap bitmap for the
first word and be done with it.

In order to enable this, we change heapBitsSetType and runGCProg to
always set the scan/dead bit to scan for the first word on every code
path. Since these functions only apply to types that have pointers,
there's no need to do this conditionally: it's *always* necessary to
set the scan bit in the first word.

We also change every place that scans an object and checks if there
are more pointers. Rather than only checking morePointers if the word
is >= 2, we now check morePointers if word != 1 (since that's the
checkmark word).

Looking forward, we should probably reclaim the checkmark bit, too,
but that's going to be quite a bit more work.

Tested by setting doubleCheck in heapBitsSetType and running all.bash
on both linux/amd64 and linux/386, and by running GOGC=10 all.bash.

This particularly improves the FmtFprintf* go1 benchmarks, since they
do a large amount of noscan allocation.

f120936dff cmd/compile, etc: use name for type pkgPath
By replacing the *string used to represent pkgPath with a
reflect.name everywhere, the embedded *string for package paths
inside the reflect.name can be replaced by an offset, nameOff.
This reduces the number of pointers in the type information.

This also moves all reflect.name types into the same section, making
it possible to use nameOff more widely in later CLs.

7d469179e6 cmd/compile, etc: store method tables as offsets
This CL introduces the typeOff type and a lookup method of the same
name that can turn a typeOff offset into an *rtype.

In a typical Go binary (built with buildmode=exe, pie, c-archive, or
c-shared), there is one moduledata and all typeOff values are offsets
relative to firstmoduledata.types. This makes computing the pointer
cheap in typical programs.

With buildmode=shared (and one day, buildmode=plugin) there are
multiple modules whose relative offset is determined at runtime.
We identify a type in the general case by the pair of the original
*rtype that references it and its typeOff value. We determine
the module from the original pointer, and then use the typeOff from
there to compute the final *rtype.

To ensure there is only one *rtype representing each type, the
runtime initializes a typemap for each module, using any identical
type from an earlier module when resolving that offset. This means
that types computed from an offset match the type mapped by the
pointer dynamic relocations.

A series of followup CLs will replace other *rtype values with typeOff
(and name/*string with nameOff).

For types created at runtime by reflect, type offsets are treated as
global IDs and reference into a reflect offset map kept by the runtime.

When a function returned a pointer, and CanAddr was true, the result was
a pointer to a pointer that had no methods.

fdba5a7544 all: delete dead non-test code
This change removes a lot of dead code. Some of the code has never been
used, not even when it was first commited. The rest shouldn't have
survived refactors.

This change doesn't remove unused routines helpful for debugging, nor
does it remove code that's used in commented out blocks of code that are
only unused temporarily. Furthermore, unused constants weren't removed
when they were part of a set of constants from specifications.

One noteworthy omission from this CL are about 1000 lines of unused code
in cmd/fix, 700 lines of which are the typechecker, which hasn't been
used ever since the pre-Go 1 fixes have been removed. I wasn't sure if
this code should stick around for future uses of cmd/fix or be culled as
well.

24ce64d1a9 cmd/compile, runtime: new static name encoding
Create a byte encoding designed for static Go names.

It is intended to be a compact representation of a name
and optional tag data that can be turned into a Go string
without allocating, and describes whether or not it is
exported without unicode table.

The encoding is described in reflect/type.go:

// The first byte is a bit field containing:
//
//	1<<0 the name is exported
//	1<<1 tag data follows the name
//	1<<2 pkgPath *string follow the name and tag
//
// The next two bytes are the data length:
//
//	 l := uint16(data[1])<<8 | uint16(data[2])
//
// Bytes [3:3+l] are the string data.
//
// If tag data follows then bytes 3+l and 3+l+1 are the tag length,
// with the data following.
//
// If the import path follows, then ptrSize bytes at the end of
// the data form a *string. The import path is only set for concrete
// methods that are defined in a different package than their type.

8df733bd22 cmd/compile: remove slices from rtype.funcType
Alternative to golang.org/cl/19852. This memory layout doesn't have
an easy type representation, but it is noticeably smaller than the
current funcType, and saves significant extra space.

Some notes on the layout are in reflect/type.go:

// A *rtype for each in and out parameter is stored in an array that
// directly follows the funcType (and possibly its uncommonType). So
// a function type with one method, one input, and one output is:
//
//	struct {
//		funcType
//		uncommonType
//		[2]*rtype    // [0] is in, [1] is out
//		uncommonTypeSliceContents
//	}

There are three arbitrary limits introduced by this CL:

1. No more than 65535 function input parameters.
2. No more than 32767 function output parameters.
3. reflect.FuncOf is limited to 128 parameters.

I don't think these are limits in practice, but are worth noting.
