Mostly NOSPLIT additions.
Had to rewrite atomic_arm.c in Go because it calls lock,
and lock is too complex.
With this CL, I find no Go -> C calls that can split the stack
on any system except Solaris and Windows.
Solaris and Windows need more work and will be done separately.

It is fundamentally unsafe to grow the stack once someone
has made a call to syscall.Syscall. That function takes 6 uintptr
arguments, but depending on the call some are pointers.
In fact, some might be pointers to stack values, and we don't know which.
That makes it impossible to copy the stack somewhere else.
Since we want to delete all the stack splitting code, relying only
on stack copying, make sure that Syscall never needs to split the stack.
The only thing Syscall does is:
call entersyscall
make the system call
call exitsyscall
As long as we make sure that entersyscall and exitsyscall
can live in the nosplit region, they won't ask for more stack.
Do this by making entersyscall and exitsyscall set up the
stack guard so that any call to a function with a split check
will cause a crash. Then move non-essential slow-path
work onto the m stack using onM and mark the rest of the
work nosplit. The linker will verify that the chain of nosplits
fits in the total nosplit budget.

It looks like this has just always been broken:
the race detector handles running Go code on g0 of the main thread
and on g0 of any extra threads created by non-Go code, but it does
not handle running Go code on g0 of non-main threads created by Go.
Handle that.

Run it right before main.init.
There is still some runtime initialization that
happens before runtime.init, and some of that
may call into Go code (for example to acquire locks)
so this timing is not perfect, but I believe it is the
best we can do.
This came up because global variables intialized
to func values are done in the generated init code,
not in the linker.

Also fix a bunch of bugs:
1. Accesses to last_gc must be atomic (it's int64).
2. last_gc still can be 0 during first checks in sysmon, check for 0.
3. forcegc.g can be unitialized when sysmon accesses it:
forcegc.g is initialized by main goroutine (forcegc.g = newproc1(...)),
and main goroutine is unsynchronized with both sysmon and forcegc goroutine.
Initialize forcegc.g in the forcegc goroutine itself instead.

Every change to g->atomicstatus is now done atomically so that we can
ensure that all gs pass through a gc safepoint on demand. This allows
the GC to move from one phase to the next safely. In some phases the
stack will be scanned. This CL only deals with the infrastructure that
allows g->atomicstatus to go from one state to another. Future CLs
will deal with scanning and monitoring what phase the GC is in.
The major change was to moving to using a Gscan bit to indicate that
the status is in a scan state. The only bug fix was in oldstack where
I wasn't moving to a Gcopystack state in order to block scanning until
the new stack was in place. The proc.go file is waiting for an atomic
load instruction.

Calling ReadMemStats which does stoptheworld on m0 holding locks
was not a good idea.
Stoptheworld holding locks is a recipe for deadlocks (added check for this).
Stoptheworld on g0 may or may not work (added check for this as well).
As far as I understand scavenger will print incorrect numbers now,
as stack usage is not subtracted from heap. But it's better than deadlocking.

Summary of the changes:
GC uses "2-bits per word" pointer type info embed directly into bitmap.
Scanning of stacks/data/heap is unified.
The old spans types go away.
Compiler generates "sparse" 4-bits type info for GC (directly for GC bitmap).
Linker generates "dense" 2-bits type info for data/bss (the same as stacks use).
Summary of results:
-1680 lines of code total (-1000+ in mgc0.c only)
-25% memory consumption
-3-7% binary size
-15% GC pause reduction
-7% run time reduction

runtime: stack allocator, separate from mallocgc
In order to move malloc to Go, we need to have a
separate stack allocator. If we run out of stack
during malloc, malloc will not be available
to allocate a new stack.
Stacks are the last remaining FlagNoGC objects in the
GC heap. Once they are out, we can get rid of the
distinction between the allocated/blockboundary bits.
(This will be in a separate change.)

This CL adds 'dropg', which is called to drop the association
between m and its current goroutine, and it makes schedule
handle locked goroutines correctly, instead of requiring all
callers of schedule to do that.
The effect is that if you want to take over an m for, say,
garbage collection work while still allowing the current g
to run on some other m, you can do an mcall to a function
that is:
// dissociate gp
dropg();
gp->status = Gwaiting; // for ready
// put gp on run queue for others to find
runtime·ready(gp);
/* ... do other work here ... */
// done with m, let it run goroutines again
schedule();
Before this CL, the dropg() body had to be written explicitly,
and the check for lockedg before schedule had to be
written explicitly too, both of which make the code a bit
more fragile than it needs to be.
