Angle brackets can trigger some browser sniffers, causing
some forms of JSON output to be interpreted as HTML.
Escaping angle brackets closes that security hole.

Each package using struct field tags assumes that
it is the only package storing data in the tag.
This CL adds support in package reflect for sharing
tags between multiple packages. In this scheme, the
tags must be of the form
key:"value" key2:"value2"
(raw strings help when writing that tag in Go source).
reflect.StructField's Tag field now has type StructTag
(a string type), which has method Get(key string) string
that returns the associated value.
Clients of json and xml will need to be updated.
Code that says
type T struct {
X int "name"
}
should become
type T struct {
X int `json:"name"` // or `xml:"name"`
}
Use govet to identify struct tags that need to be changed
to use the new syntax.

This matches the old JSON package behavior.
All lowercase names are not as standard as I believed,
and it seems less surprising to need to write
type T struct { Field string "field" }
to get lower case (behavior after this CL) than it does to need
to write
type T struct { Field string "Field" }
to preserve the case (behavior before this CL).
Also test and fix unmarshal into non-nil interface
value or pointer.
Fixes#744.

parsing and printing to new syntax.
Use -oldparser to parse the old syntax,
use -oldprinter to print the old syntax.
2) Change default gofmt formatting settings
to use tabs for indentation only and to use
spaces for alignment. This will make the code
alignment insensitive to an editor's tabwidth.
Use -spaces=false to use tabs for alignment.
3) Manually changed src/exp/parser/parser_test.go
so that it doesn't try to parse the parser's
source files using the old syntax (they have
new syntax now).
4) gofmt -w src misc test/bench
3rd set of files.
