This eliminates ~75% of the nil checks being emitted,
on all architectures. We can do better, but we need
a bit more general support from the compiler, and
I don't want to do that so close to Go 1.2.
What's here is simple but effective and safe.
A few small code generation cleanups were required
to make the analysis consistent on all systems about
which nil checks are omitted, at least in the test.
Fixes#6019.

47ec7a68b1a2 added support for ECDSA ciphersuites but didn't alter the
cipher suite selection to take that into account. Thus Go servers could
try and select an ECDSA cipher suite while only having an RSA
certificate, leading to connection failures.

The code for call site-specific pointer bitmaps was not ready in time,
but the zeroing required without it is too expensive to use by default.
We will have to wait for precise collection of stack frames until Go 1.3.
The precise collection can be re-enabled by
GOEXPERIMENT=precisestack ./all.bash
but that will not be the default for a Go 1.2 build.

The uint64 divide function calls _mul64x32 to do a 64x32-bit multiply
and then compares the result against the 64-bit numerator.
If the result is bigger than the numerator, must use the slow path.
Unfortunately, the 64x32 produces a 96-bit product, and only the
low 64 bits were being used in the comparison. Return all 96 bits,
the bottom 64 via the original uint64* pointer, and the top 32
as the function's return value.

The kernel implementation of the fast system call path,
the one invoked by the SYSCALL instruction, is broken for
restarting system calls. A C program demonstrating this is below.
Change the system calls to use INT $0x80 instead, because
that (perhaps slightly slower) system call path actually works.
I filed http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=182161.

It reports the same "Bad address" failures from wait.

Bug #1:
Issue 5406 identified an interesting case:
defer iface.M()
may end up calling a wrapper that copies an indirect receiver
from the iface value and then calls the real M method. That's
two calls down, not just one, and so recover() == nil always
in the real M method, even during a panic.
[For the purposes of this entire discussion, a wrapper's
implementation is a function containing an ordinary call, not
the optimized tail call form that is somtimes possible. The
tail call does not create a second frame, so it is already
handled correctly.]
Fix this bug by introducing g->panicwrap, which counts the
number of bytes on current stack segment that are due to
wrapper calls that should not count against the recover
check. All wrapper functions must now adjust g->panicwrap up
on entry and back down on exit. This adds slightly to their
expense; on the x86 it is a single instruction at entry and
exit; on the ARM it is three. However, the alternative is to
make a call to recover depend on being able to walk the stack,
which I very much want to avoid. We have enough problems
walking the stack for garbage collection and profiling.
Also, if performance is critical in a specific case, it is already
faster to use a pointer receiver and avoid this kind of wrapper
entirely.
Bug #2:
The old code, which did not consider the possibility of two
calls, already contained a check to see if the call had split
its stack and so the panic-created segment was one behind the
current segment. In the wrapper case, both of the two calls
might split their stacks, so the panic-created segment can be
two behind the current segment.
Fix this by propagating the Stktop.panic flag forward during
stack splits instead of looking backward during recover.
Fixes#5406.
