Fixes#8480.
This CL reapplies CL 114420043. This attempt doesn't blow up when encountering hidden symbols.

When building golang, the environment variable GOROOT_FINAL can be set
to indicate a different installation location from the build
location. This works fine, except that the goc2c build step embeds
line numbers in the resulting c source files that refer to the build
location, no the install location.
This would not be a big deal, except that in turn the linker uses the
location of runtime/string.goc to embed the gdb script in the
resulting binary and as a net result, the debugger now complains that
the script is outside its load path (it has the install location
configured).
See https://code.google.com/p/go/issues/detail?id=8524 for the full
description.
Fixes#8524.

The "simpler faster garbage collector" is full of little-endian assumptions.
Instead of trying to correct all the mistakes, just give in and make
everything use bytes.

bv.data is an array of uint32s but the code was using
offsets computed for an array of bytes.
Add a test for stack GC info.

Fixes#8495.
CL 128260043 updated the definition of syscall.GetPageSize to report 64k for power64 and power64le. This CL cleans up the last place where the page size was defined as 4k.

This runs once. There is no need for inscrutable algorithms.
Also it doesn't compile correctly with 9c.

E.g., here's the new "go build" output:
$ go build misc/cgo/errors/issue8442.go
# command-line-arguments
could not determine kind of name for C.issue8442foo
gcc errors for preamble:
misc/cgo/errors/issue8442.go:11:19: error: unknown type name 'UNDEF'
Fixes#8442.

On the machine I'm using, the hardware page size seems to be 64 kB.
Make ELF rounding and mmap quantum 64 kB to match.
Error numbers returned from kernel are positive; do not negate.
Implement stubs for math/big.

In cgo, now that recursive calls to typeConv.Type() always work,
we can more robustly calculate the array sizes based on the size
of our element type.
Also, in debug/dwarf, the decision to call zeroType is made
based on a type's usage within a particular struct, but dwarf.Type
values are cached in typeCache, so the modification might affect
uses of the type in other structs. Current compilers don't appear
to share DWARF type entries for "[]foo" and "[0]foo", but they also
don't consistently share type entries in other cases. Arguably
modifying the types is an improvement in some cases, but varying
translated types according to compiler whims seems like a bad idea.
Lastly, also in debug/dwarf, zeroType only needs to rewrite the
top-level dimension, and only if the rest of the array size is
non-zero.
Fixes#8428.

Restore https://golang.org/cl/41040043 after GC rewrite.
Original description:
On the plus side, we don't need to change the bits on malloc and free.
On the downside, we need to mark objects in the free lists during GC.
But the free lists are small at GC time, so it should be a net win.

Those moves might be significant (e.g. narrowing or widening): on Power64,
we don't distinguish between MOVWD and MOVW.
This fixes divmode.go and bug447.go.

Basically this cleanup replaces all the usage usages of strcmp() == 0,
found by the following command line:
