Store the reflect.Value in the internal print state. Code is simpler, cleaner,
and a little faster - back to what it was before the change.

Had been allowing it for use by fmt, but it is too hard to lock down.
Fix other packages not to depend on it.

The C-stdlib heritage of printf/fprintf/sprintf has two odd
aspects for precisions of zero with integers. First, the zero
can be specified in any of these ways, "%4.0d", "%.0d" and
"%.d" which was not previously supported here. Secondly, the
seemingly universal interpretation of precision for integers
is that precision==0 and value==0 means print nothing at all.
The code here now handles this for integers just as the code
in big/int.c does the same for the Int type. New tests are
added to fmt_test.go to verify these changes.

The public godoc looked confused. I imagine these were
written before current conventions were established.

This is a core API change.
1) gofix misc src
2) Manual adjustments to the following files under src/pkg:
gob/decode.go
rpc/client.go
os/error.go
io/io.go
bufio/bufio.go
http/request.go
websocket/client.go
as well as:
src/cmd/gofix/testdata/*.go.in (reverted)
test/fixedbugs/bug243.go
3) Implemented gofix patch (oserrorstring.go) and test case (oserrorstring_test.go)
Compiles and runs all tests.

This change causes Print et al. to catch panics generated by
calls to String, GoString, and Format. The panic is formatted
into the output stream as an error, but the program continues.
As a special case, if the argument was a nil pointer, the
result is just "<nil>", because that's almost certainly enough
information and handles the very common case of String
methods that don't guard against nil.
Scan does not want this change. Input must work; output can
be for debugging and it's nice to get output even when you
make a mistake.

%+q uses strconv.Quote[Rune]ToASCII, guaranteeing ASCII-only output.
%#U a quoted character if the rune is printable: 'x'=U+0078; otherwise
it's as before: U+000A.

The old loop was a bit odd; change it to be more regular.
This also enables a diagnostic for Printf("%", 3): %!(NOVERB)

fmt.Printf("%U", 1) yields "U+0001"
It's essentially "U+%.4x" but lets you override the precision works in scan, too.

This crops up in a lot of places.
It's just a one-liner, but doesn't add any dependancies.
Seems worth it.

the solution must work around a weakness in the reflection library:
there is no way to do type-safe conversions under reflection.

This shortens, simplifies and regularizes the code significantly.
(Improvements to reflect could make another step.)
Passes all.bash.
One semantic change occurs: The String() method changes
behavior. It used to run only for string formats such as %s and %q.
Instead, it now runs whenever the item has the method and the
result is then processed by the format as a string. Besides the
regularization, this has three effects:
1) width is honored for String() items
2) %x works for String() items
3) implementations of String that merely recur will recur forever
Regarding point 3, example from the updated documentation:
type X int
func (x X) String() string { return Sprintf("%d", x) }
should cast the value before recurring:
func (x X) String() string { return Sprintf("%d", int(x)) }

Also fix an interface bug: white-space-delimited doesn't work well for cases like "%d, %d" on "23, 23")
