A nosplits was assumed to have no argument information and no
pointer map. However, nosplits created by the linker often
have both. This change uses the pointer map size as an
alternate source of argument size when processing a nosplit.
In addition, the symbol table construction pointer map size
and argument size consistency check is strengthened. If a
nptrs is greater than 0 it must be equal to the number of
argument words.

With this change the compiler emits a bitmap for each function
covering its stack frame arguments area. If an argument word
is known to contain a pointer, a bit is set. The garbage
collector reads this information when scanning the stack by
frames and uses it to ignores locations known to not contain a
pointer.

runtime: double-check that symbol table is sorted
If the symbol table is unsorted, the binary search in findfunc
will not find its func, which will make stack traces stop early.
When the garbage collector starts using the stack tracer,
that would be a serious problem.
The unsorted symbol addresses came from from two things:
1. The symbols in an ELF object are not necessarily sorted,
so sort them before adding them to the symbol list.
2. The __i686.get_pc_thunk.bx symbol is present in multiple
object files and was having its address adjusted multiple
times, producing an incorrect address in the symbol table.

This CL changes the encoding used for the Go symbol table,
stored in the binary and used at run time. It does not change
any of the semantics or structure: the bits are just packed
a little differently.
The comment at the top of runtime/symtab.c describes the new format.
Compared to the Go 1.0 format, the main changes are:
* Store symbol addresses as full-pointer-sized host-endian values.
(For 6g, this means addresses are 64-bit little-endian.)
* Store other values (frame sizes and so on) varint-encoded.
The second change more than compensates for the first:
for the godoc binary on OS X/amd64, the new symbol table
is 8% smaller than the old symbol table (1,425,668 down from 1,546,276).
This is a required step for allowing the host linker (gcc) to write
the final Go binary, since it will have to fill in the symbol address slots
(so the slots must be host-endian) and on 64-bit systems it may
choose addresses above 4 GB.

Previously, the func structure contained an inaccurate value for
the args member and a 0 value for the locals member.
This change populates the func structure with args and locals
values computed by the compiler. The number of args was
already available in the ATEXT instruction. The number of
locals is now passed through in the new ALOCALS instruction.
This change also switches the unit of args and locals to be
bytes, just like the frame member, instead of 32-bit words.

The Plan 9 symbol table format defines big-endian symbol values
for portability, but we want to be able to generate an ELF object file
and let the host linker link it, as part of the solution to issue 4069.
The symbol table itself, since it is loaded into memory at run time,
must be filled in by the final host linker, using relocation directives
to set the symbol values. On a little-endian machine, the linker will
only fill in little-endian values during relocation, so we are forced
to use little-endian symbol values.
To preserve most of the original portability of the symbol table
format, we make the table itself say whether it uses big- or
little-endian values. If the table begins with the magic sequence
fe ff ff ff 00 00
then the actual table begins after those six bytes and contains
little-endian symbol values. Otherwise, the table is in the original
format and contains big-endian symbol values. The magic sequence
looks like an "end of table" entry (the fifth byte is zero), so legacy
readers will see a little-endian table as an empty table.
All the gc architectures are little-endian today, so the practical
effect of this CL is to make all the generated tables little-endian,
but if a big-endian system comes along, ld will not generate
the magic sequence, and the various readers will fall back to the
original big-endian interpretation.

This CL makes the runtime understand that the type of
the len or cap of a map, slice, or string is 'int', not 'int32',
and it is also careful to distinguish between function arguments
and results of type 'int' vs type 'int32'.
In the runtime, the new typedefs 'intgo' and 'uintgo' refer
to Go int and uint. The C types int and uint continue to be
unavailable (cause intentional compile errors).
This CL does not change the meaning of int, but it should make
the eventual change of the meaning of int on amd64 a bit
smoother.

Collapse the arch,os-specific directories into the main directory
by renaming xxx/foo.c to foo_xxx.c, and so on.
There are no substantial edits here, except to the Makefile.
The assumption is that the Go tool will #define GOOS_darwin
and GOARCH_amd64 and will make any file named something
like signals_darwin.h available as signals_GOOS.h during the
build. This replaces what used to be done with -I$(GOOS).
There is still work to be done to make runtime build with
standard tools, but this is a big step. After this we will have
to write a script to generate all the generated files so they
can be checked in (instead of generated during the build).

Avoid getting out of synch when a function, such as main.init,
has no associated line number information. Without this the
function before main.init can skip the PC all the way to the
next function, which will cause the next function's line table

That is, move the pc/ln table and the symbol table
into the read-only data segment. This eliminates
the need for a special load command to map the
symbol table into memory, which makes the
information available on systems that couldn't handle
the magic load to 0x99000000, like NaCl and ARM QEMU
and Linux without config_highmem=y. It also
eliminates an #ifdef and some clumsy code to
find the symbol table on Windows.
The bad news is that the binary appears to be bigger
than it used to be. This is not actually the case, though:
the same amount of data is being mapped into memory
as before, and the tables are still read-only, so they're
still shared across multiple instances of the binary as
they were before. The difference is just that the tables
aren't squirreled away in some section that "size" doesn't
know to look at.
This is a checkpoint.
It probably breaks Windows and breaks NaCl more
than it used to be broken, but those will be fixed.
The logic involving -s needs to be revisited too.
