Rewrite formatFloat to be much simpler and clearer and
avoid the tricky interaction with padding.
The issue refers to complex but the problem is just floating-point.
The new tests added were incorrectly formatted before this fix.

The spec did not specify the order in which
init() functions are called. Specify that
they are called in source order since we have
now also specified the initialization order
of independent variables.
While technically a language change, no
existing code could have relied on this,
so this should not break anything.
Per suggestion from rsc.

- split description of package initialization and
program execution
- better grouping of concerns in section on package
initialization
- more explicit definition of what constitues a
dependency
- removed language about constant dependencies -
they are computed at compile-time and not
initialized at run-time
- clarified that independent variables are initialized
in declaration order (rather than reference order)
Note that the last clarification is what distinguishes
gc and gccgo at the moment: gc uses reference order
(i.e., order in which variables are referenced in
initialization expressions), while gccgo uses declaration
order for independent variables.
Not a language change. But adopting this CL will
clarify what constitutes a dependency.
Fixes#6703.

Add nacl.bash, the NaCl version of all.bash.
It's a separate script because it builds a variant of package syscall
with a large zip file embedded in it, containing all the input files
needed for tests.

The move from 4kB to 8kB in Go 1.2 was to eliminate many stack split hot spots.
The move back to 4kB was predicated on copying stacks eliminating
the potential for hot spots.
Unfortunately, the fact that stacks do not copy 100% of the time means
that hot spots can still happen under the right conditions, and the slowdown
is worse now than it was in Go 1.2. There is a real program in issue 8030 that
sees about a 30x slowdown: it has a reflect call near the top of the stack
which inhibits any stack copying on that segment.
Go back to 8kB until stack copying can be used 100% of the time.

The float32 const conversion used to round to float64
and then use the hardware to round to float32.
Even though there was a range check before this
conversion, the double rounding introduced inaccuracy:
the round to float64 might round the value further away
from the float32 range, reaching a float64 value that
could not actually be rounded to float32. The hardware
appears to give us 0 in that case, but it is probably undefined.
Double rounding also meant that the wrong value might
be used for certain border cases.
Do the rounding the float32 ourselves, just as we already
did the rounding to float64. This makes the conversion
precise and also makes the conversion match the range check.
Finally, add some code to print very large (bigger than float64)
floating point constants in decimal floating point notation instead
of falling back to the precise but human-unreadable binary floating
point notation.
Fixes#8015.

CL 22730043 fixed a bug in these functions: they could
return 1.0 despite documentation saying otherwise.
But the fix changed the values returned in the non-buggy case too,
which might invalidate programs depending on a particular
stream when using rand.Seed(0) or when passing their own
Source to rand.New.
The example test says:
// These tests serve as an example but also make sure we don't change
// the output of the random number generator when given a fixed seed.
so I think there is some justification for thinking we have
promised not to change the values. In any case, there's no point in
changing the values gratuitously: we can easily fix this bug without
changing the values, and so we should.
That CL just changed the test values too, which defeats the
stated purpose, but it was just a comment.
Add an explicit regression test, which might be
a clearer signal next time that we don't want to change
the values.
Fixes#6721. (again)
