Context.Alignof/Offsetsof/Sizeof now provide means
to customize the type checker for a given platform.
- provide Context.Offsetsof to specify the
offsets of struct fields
- use the correct sizes for ints, uint, uintptrs
in constant computations
- moved all size computations into separate file
(sizes.go)
- fixed a bug with string constant slicing

Functions for representing network connections as files
and vice versa, on Plan 9.
Representing network connections as files is not so
straight-forward, because a network connection on Plan 9
is represented by a host of files rather than a single
file descriptor (as is the case on UNIX). We use the
type system to distinguish between listeners and
connections, returning the control file in the former
case and the data file in the latter case.

Syscalls return `-1' on error and the representation is always
32-bits. The `$-1' literal in 64-bit assembly is always the
64-bit representation. So this change makes sure that we
always do a 32-bit comparison when checking for error.
Also makes sure that in the error case, we return a 64-bit
`-1' from runtime.seek.
Fixes the arithmetic for handling the error-string in
runtime.Syscall6.

The type information is (and for years has been) included
as an extra field in the address chunk of an instruction.
Unfortunately, suppose there is a string at a+24(FP) and
we have an instruction reading its length. It will say:
MOVQ x+32(FP), AX
and the type of *that* argument is int (not slice), because
it is the length being read. This confuses the picture seen
by debuggers and now, worse, by the garbage collector.
Instead of attaching the type information to all uses,
emit an explicit list of TYPE instructions with the information.
The TYPE instructions are no-ops whose only role is to
provide an address to attach type information to.
For example, this function:
func f(x, y, z int) (a, b string) {
return
}
now compiles into:
--- prog list "f" ---
0000 (/Users/rsc/x.go:3) TEXT f+0(SB),$0-56
0001 (/Users/rsc/x.go:3) LOCALS ,
0002 (/Users/rsc/x.go:3) TYPE x+0(FP){int},$8
0003 (/Users/rsc/x.go:3) TYPE y+8(FP){int},$8
0004 (/Users/rsc/x.go:3) TYPE z+16(FP){int},$8
0005 (/Users/rsc/x.go:3) TYPE a+24(FP){string},$16
0006 (/Users/rsc/x.go:3) TYPE b+40(FP){string},$16
0007 (/Users/rsc/x.go:3) MOVQ $0,b+40(FP)
0008 (/Users/rsc/x.go:3) MOVQ $0,b+48(FP)
0009 (/Users/rsc/x.go:3) MOVQ $0,a+24(FP)
0010 (/Users/rsc/x.go:3) MOVQ $0,a+32(FP)
0011 (/Users/rsc/x.go:4) RET ,
The { } show the formerly hidden type information.
The { } syntax is used when printing from within the gc compiler.
It is not accepted by the assemblers.
The same type information is now included on global variables:
0055 (/Users/rsc/x.go:15) GLOBL slice+0(SB){[]string},$24(AL*0)
This more accurate type information fixes a bug in the
garbage collector's precise heap collection.
The linker only cares about globals right now, but having the
local information should make things a little nicer for Carl
in the future.

Added the command line flag -ex to godoc to print examples in
text output.
Samples from the generated output:
$ godoc -ex strings Index
...
func Index(s, sep string) int
Index returns the index of the first instance of sep in s, or -1 if sep
is not present in s.
Example:
fmt.Println(strings.Index("chicken", "ken"))
fmt.Println(strings.Index("chicken", "dmr"))
// Output:
// 4
// -1
...
$ godoc -ex container/heap
...
package heap
import "container/heap"
Package heap provides heap operations for any type that implements
heap.Interface. A heap is a tree with the property that each node is the
minimum-valued node in its subtree.
Example:
// This example demonstrates an integer heap built using the heap interface.
package heap_test
import (
"container/heap"
"fmt"
...
Example:
// This example demonstrates a priority queue built using the heap interface.
package heap_test
import (
"container/heap"
"fmt"
)

1. Workaround the smart clang diagnostics with -Qunused-arguments:
clang: error: argument unused during compilation: '-XXX'
2. if "clang -print-libgcc-file-name" returns non-absolute path, don't
provide that on linker command line.
3. Fix dwarf.PtrType.Size() in cmd/cgo as clang doesn't generate
DW_AT_byte_size for pointer types.
4. Workaround warnings for -Wno-unneeded-internal-declaration with
-Wno-unknown-warning-option.
5. Add -Wno-unused-function.
6. enable race detector test on darwin with clang
(at least Apple clang version 1.7 (tags/Apple/clang-77) works).
