Using the kernel-supplied compare-and-swap code
on linux/arm means that runtime doesn't have to care
whether this is GOARM=5 or GOARM=6 anymore.
Fixes#1494.

In CL 4188061 I changed malg to allocate the requested
number of bytes n, not n+StackGuard, so that the
allocations would use rounder numbers.
The allocation of the signal stack asks for 32k and
then used g->stackguard as the base, but g->stackguard
is StackGuard bytes above the base. Previously, asking
for 32k meant getting 32k+StackGuard bytes, so using
g->stackguard as the base was safe. Now, the actual base
must be computed, so that the signal handler does not
run StackGuard bytes past the top of the stack.
Was causing flakiness mainly in programs that use the
network, because they sometimes write to closed network
connections, causing SIGPIPEs. Was also causing problems
in the doc/progs test.
Also fix Makefile so that changes to stack.h trigger rebuild.

A terminal panic (one that prints a stack trace and exits)
has been calling runtime.breakpoint before calling exit,
so that if running under a debugger, the debugger can
take control. When not running under a debugger, though,
this causes an additional SIGTRAP on Unix and pop-up
dialogs on Windows.
Support for debugging Go programs has gotten good
enough that we can rely on the debugger to set its own
breakpoint on runtime.exit if it wants to look around.

The existing code assumed that signals only arrived
while executing on the goroutine stack (g == m->curg),
not while executing on the scheduler stack (g == m->g0).
Most of the signal handling trampolines correctly saved
and restored g already, but the sighandler C code did not
have access to it.
Some rewriting of assembly to make the various
implementations as similar as possible.
Will need to change Windows too but I don't
understand how sigtramp gets called there.

The old heap maps used a multilevel table, but that
was overkill: there are only 1M entries on a 32-bit
machine and we can arrange to use a dense address
range on a 64-bit machine.
The heap map is in bss. The assumption is that if
we don't touch the pages they won't be mapped in.
Also moved some duplicated memory allocation
code out of the OS-specific files.

The functionality we want (shared ppid) is implied
by CLONE_THREAD already, and CLONE_PARENT
causes problems if the Go program is pid 1 (init).

I missed that environment is used during runtime setup,
well before go init() functions run. Implemented os-dependent
runtime.goenvs functions to allow for different unix, plan9 and

Prefix all external symbols in runtime by runtime·,
to avoid conflicts with possible symbols of the same
name in linked-in C libraries. The obvious conflicts
are printf, malloc, and free, but hide everything to
avoid future pain.
The symbols left alone are:
** known to cgo **
_cgo_free
_cgo_malloc
libcgo_thread_start
initcgo
ncgocall
** known to linker **
_rt0_$GOARCH
_rt0_$GOARCH_$GOOS

On systems where the mmap succeeds
(e.g., sysctl -w vm.mmap_min_addr=0)
it changes the signal code delivered for a
nil fault from ``page not mapped'' to
``invalid permissions for page.''

g is not in r15 anymore.
now it's in a per-thread memory segment,
which is valid even inside a signal handler,

Old code was using recursion to traverse object graph.
New code uses an explicit stack, cutting the per-pointer
footprint to two words during the recursion and avoiding
the standard allocator and stack splitting code.

Reduces parser runtime by 2-3%
Reduces Peano runtime by 40%
Increases tree runtime by 4-5%

Cannot assume that g == m->curg at time of signal.
Must save actual g and restore.
Fixes flaky crashes with messages like

throw: malloc/free - deadlock
throw: unwindstack on self
throw: free mlookup
