Shame on me: I fixed the same bug in 6l in 8691fcc6a66e
(https://golang.org/cl/2609041) and neglected
to look at 5l and 8l to see if they were affected.
On the positive side, the check I added in that CL is the
one that detected this bug.
Fixes#1457.

The fault was lucky: when it wasn't faulting it was silently
copying a word from some other block and later putting
that same word back. If some other goroutine had changed
that word of memory in the interim, too bad.
The ARM code was inconsistent about whether the
"argument frame" included the saved LR. Including it made
some things more regular but mostly just caused confusion
in the places where the regularity broke. Now the rule
reflects reality: argp is always a pointer to arguments,
never a saved link register.
Renamed struct fields to make meaning clearer.

The recent linker changes broke NaCl support
a month ago, and there are no known users of it.
The NaCl code can always be recovered from the

Reduces I/O by avoiding additional passes
through libraries to resolve symbols.

That is, move the pc/ln table and the symbol table
into the read-only data segment. This eliminates
the need for a special load command to map the
symbol table into memory, which makes the
information available on systems that couldn't handle
the magic load to 0x99000000, like NaCl and ARM QEMU
and Linux without config_highmem=y. It also
eliminates an #ifdef and some clumsy code to
find the symbol table on Windows.
The bad news is that the binary appears to be bigger
than it used to be. This is not actually the case, though:
the same amount of data is being mapped into memory
as before, and the tables are still read-only, so they're
still shared across multiple instances of the binary as
they were before. The difference is just that the tables
aren't squirreled away in some section that "size" doesn't
know to look at.
This is a checkpoint.
It probably breaks Windows and breaks NaCl more
than it used to be broken, but those will be fixed.
The logic involving -s needs to be revisited too.
Fixes#871.

Because the SB is only good for 8k and Go programs
tend to have much more data than that, SB doesn't
save very much. A fmt.Printf-based hello world program
has 360 kB text segment. Removing SB makes the text
500 bytes (0.14%) longer.

Also change the span-dependent jump algorithm
to use fewer iterations:
* resolve forward jumps at their targets (comefrom list)
* mark jumps as small or big and only do small->big
* record whether a jump failed to be encodable
These changes mean that a function with only small
jumps can be laid out in a single iteration, and the
vast majority of functions take just two iterations.
I was seeing a maximum of 5 iterations before; the
max now is 3 and there are fewer that get even that far.

Using explicit relocations internally, we can
represent the data for a particular symbol as
an initialized block of memory instead of a
linked list of ADATA instructions. The real
goal here is to be able to hand off some of the
relocations to the dynamic linker when interacting
with system libraries, but a pleasant side effect is
that the memory image is much more compact
than the ADATA list, so the linkers use less memory.

The Plan 9 tools assume that long is 32 bits.
We converted all instances of long to int32 when
importing the code but missed the print formats.
Because int32 is always int on the compilers we use,
it is never correct to use %lux, %ld, etc. Convert to %ux, %d, etc.
(It matters because on 64-bit gcc, long is 64 bits,
so we were printing 32-bit quantities with 64-bit formats.)

* Maintain Sym* list for text with individual
prog lists instead of using one huge list and
overloading p->pcond.
* Comment what each file is for.
* Move some output code from span.c to asm.c.
* Move profiling into prof.c, symbol table into symtab.c.
* Move mkfwd to ld/lib.c.
* Throw away dhog dynamic loading code.
* Throw away Alef become.
* Fix printing of WORD instructions in 5l -a.
Goal here is to be able to handle each piece of text or data
as a separate piece, both to make it easier to load the
occasional .o file and also to make it possible to split the
work across multiple threads.

The Makefile and cgo now rewrite / to _ when creating the path.
The .so for gosqlite.googlecode.com/hg/sqlite is named
cgo_gosqlite.googlecode.com_hg_sqlite.so, and then 6l and 8l
both include a default rpath of $GOROOT/pkg/$GOOS_$GOARCH.
This should make it easier to move binaries from one system
to another.

This avoids a crash when using cgo where glibc's malloc thinks
that it can use some of the memory following the symbol table.
This fails because the symbol table is mapped read-only, which
affects the whole page.

This permits more flexibility with cgo and swig in cases where
the program is run on a machine other than the one on which it
is built. Rather than storing the absolute path to the shared
library in the DT_NEEDED entry, we can store just the name,
and let the dynamic linker find it using DT_RUNPATH or the
LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable.
