- use math.Sqrt instead of Math.sqrt
- use float64 for Point fields to match math.Sqrt
- distinguish between Point and Point3D for clarity
- add alignment sizes for complex types

Added a "return" to the end of an example which previously threw a compile error if used.

Consistency argument: A valid Go program should
remain valid after stripping leading and trailing
whitespace. This was not true so far if the last
text in the source was a line comment.

For elements which are themselves composite literals, the type may
be omitted if it is identical to the element type of the containing
composite literal.

Background: The current spec is imprecise with respect to the parsing ambiguity
for composite literals: It says that the ambiguity arises when the TypeName form
of the LiteralType is used. The following code:
if (B) {} ...
is not using the TypeName form (but the parenthesized TypeName form) and thus
could be interpreted as:
if ((B){}) ...
instead of
if B {} ...
Both compilers and gofmt choose the latter interpretation. One could fix the
spec by making the clause regarding the parsing ambiguity more precise ("...using
the _possibly parenthesized_ TypeName form of the LiteralType..."). The alternative
(chosen here) is to simply disallow parenthesized literal types. Except for a single
test case (test/parentype.go) there appears to be no Go code under $GOROOT containing
parenthesized literal types. Furthermore, parentheses are never needed around a
literal type for correct parsing.

We didn't mention this explicitly during our discussions,
but I think it fits the "identical types are spelled identically"
rule that we used.

Specifically:
- introduced notion of "underlying type"
- removed notion of type compatibility
- consolidated rules about assignment compatibility in
assignment compatibility section
- be consistent with specyfing that nil is the value
for uninitialized variables that can be nil (this
was not specified clearly for pointers, functions, interfaces)
- added/fixed various related links throughout
- clarify language on conversions

Specifically:
- Simplified definition of comparison compatibility and folded into
section on comparison operators since it's only used there.
This is a small language change/cleanup. As a consequence:
- An interface value may now be compared against a non-interface value.
- Channels with opposite directions cannot be compared directly anymore
(per discussion with rsc).

and adjust conversion rules.
Also:
- clarification of type identity (no language change)
- adjust special rules for channel assignment/comparison to
require identical element types (in correspondence to non-
recursiveness of type compatibility)
