Motivation: pointer analysis tools (like the oracle) want the
user to specify a set of initial packages, like 'go test'.
This change enables the user to specify a set of packages on
the command line using importer.LoadInitialPackages(args).
Each argument is interpreted as either:
- a comma-separated list of *.go source files together
comprising one non-importable ad-hoc package.
e.g. "src/pkg/net/http/triv.go" gives us [main].
- an import path, denoting both the imported package
and its non-importable external test package, if any.
e.g. "fmt" gives us [fmt, fmt_test].
Current type-checker limitations mean that only the first
import path may contribute tests: multiple packages augmented
by *_test.go files could create import cycles, which 'go test'
avoids by building a separate executable for each one.
That approach is less attractive for static analysis.
Details: (many files touched, but importer.go is the crux)
importer:
- PackageInfo.Importable boolean indicates whether
package is importable.
- un-expose Importer.Packages; expose AllPackages() instead.
- CreatePackageFromArgs has become LoadInitialPackages.
- imports() moved to util.go, renamed importsOf().
- InitialPackagesUsage usage message exported to clients.
- the package name for ad-hoc packages now comes from the
'package' decl, not "main".
ssa.Program:
- added CreatePackages() method
- PackagesByPath un-exposed, renamed 'imported'.
- expose AllPackages and ImportedPackage accessors.
oracle:
- describe: explain and workaround a go/types bug.
Misc:
- Removed various unnecessary error.Error() calls in Printf args.

CanonicalPos was inadequate since many pairs of instruction share the same pos (e.g. Allocs and Phis). Instead, we generalize the DebugRef instruction to associate not just Idents but Exprs with ssa.Values.
We no longer store any DebugRefs for constant expressions, to save space. (The type and value of such expressions can be obtained by other means, at a cost in complexity.)
Function.ValueForExpr queries the DebugRef info to return the ssa.Value of a given Expr.
Added tests.
Also:
- the DebugInfo flag is now per package, not global.
It must be set between Create and Build phases if desired.
- {Value,Instruction}.Pos() documentation updated: we still maintain
this information in the instruction stream even in non-debug mode,
but we make fewer claims about its invariants.
- Go and Defer instructions can now use their respective go/defer
token positions (not the call's lparen), so they do.
- SelectState:
Posn token.Pos indicates the <- position
DebugNode ast.Expr is the send stmt or receive expr.
- In building SelectStmt, we introduce extra temporaries in debug
mode to hold the result of the receive in 'case <-ch' even though
this value isn't ordinarily needed.
- Use *SelectState (indirectly) since the struct is getting bigger.
- Document some missing instructions in doc.go.

buildDecl was visiting all decls in source order, but the spec
calls for visiting all vars and init() funcs in order, then
all remaining functions. These two passes are now called
buildInit(), buildFuncDecl().
+ Test.
Also:
- Added workaround to gcimporter for Func with pkg==nil.
- Prog.concreteMethods has been merged into Pkg.values.
- Prog.concreteMethod() renamed declaredFunc().
- s/mfunc/obj/ (name cleanup from recent gri CL)

We now use LookupFieldOrMethod for all SelectorExprs, and
simplify the logic to discriminate the various cases.
We inline static calls to promoted/indirected functions,
dramatically reducing the number of functions created.
More tests are needed, but I'd like to submit this as-is.
In this CL, we:
- rely less on Id strings. Internally we now use
*types.Method (and its components) almost everywhere.
- stop thinking of types.Methods as objects. They don't
have stable identities. (Hopefully they will become
plain-old structs soon.)
- eliminate receiver indirection wrappers:
indirection and promotion are handled together by makeWrapper.
- Handle the interactions of promotion, indirection and
abstract methods much more cleanly.
- support receiver-bound interface method closures.
- break up builder.selectField so we can re-use parts
(emitFieldSelection).
- add importer.PackageInfo.classifySelector utility.
- delete interfaceMethodIndex()
- delete namedTypeMethodIndex()
- delete isSuperInterface() (replaced by types.IsAssignable)
- call memberFromObject on each declared concrete method's
*types.Func, not on every Method frem each method set, in the
CREATE phase for packages loaded by gcimporter.
go/types:
- document Func, Signature.Recv() better.
- use fmt in {Package,Label}.String
- reimplement Func.String to be prettier and to include method
receivers.
API changes:
- Function.method now holds the types.Method (soon to be
not-an-object) for synthetic wrappers.
- CallCommon.Method now contains an abstract (interface)
method object; was an abstract method index.
- CallCommon.MethodId() gone.
- Program.LookupMethod now takes a *Method not an Id string.

Details:
- emitImplicitSelections now emits common code for implicit
field selections in both method and field lookups.
The last iteration over the LookupFieldOrMethod indices---the explicit,
final index---is handled by the caller.
- anonFieldPath, candidate and the BFS algo in buildMethodSet are all gone.

ssa:

- Prog.CreatePackage is now exposed; idempotent; and checks for errors.
- '*address' not 'address' now implements lvalue (since it's 6 words).

importer:

- simplifed importer.PackageInfo by putting types.Info in it.
- removed obsolete precondition from IsType.

- fixed method set computation
- lazily compute it for a type on demand
- lazy allocation of various temporary maps
Also:

(these convenience functions didn't carry their weight)
- cosmetic changes
Next:
- consolidate various lookup APIs
- use lazily computed method sets for various checks
instead of individual lookups

- make interp.checkInterface use types.MissingMethod.
- un-export ssa.MakeId function.
- inline pointer() into all callers, and delete.

This CL adds three new functions to determine the SSA Value
for a given syntactic var, func or const object:
Program.{Const,Func,Var}Value.
Since constants and functions are immutable, the first
two only need a types.Object; but each distinct
reference to a var may return a distinct Value, so the third
requires an ast.Ident parameter too.
Debug information for local vars is encoded in the
instruction stream in the form of DebugRef instructions,
which are a no-op but relate their operand to a particular
ident in the AST. The beauty of this approach is that it
naturally stays consistent during optimisation passes
(e.g. lifting) without additional bookkeeping.
DebugRef instructions are only generated if the DebugMode
builder flag is set; I plan to make the policy more fine-
grained (per function).
DebugRef instructions are inserted for:
- expr(Ident) for rvalue idents
- address.store() for idents that update an lvalue
- address.address() for idents that take address of lvalue
(this new method replaces all uses of lval.(address).addr)
- expr() for all constant expressions
- local ValueSpecs with implicit zero initialization (no RHS)
(this case doesn't call store() or address())
To ensure we don't forget to emit debug info for uses of Idents,
we must use the lvalue mechanism consistently. (Previously,
many simple cases had effectively inlined these functions.)
Similarly setCallFunc no longer inlines expr(Ident).
Also:
- Program.Value() has been inlined & specialized.
- Program.Package() has moved nearer the new lookup functions.
- refactoring: funcSyntax has lost paramFields, resultFields;
gained funcType, which provides access to both.
- add package-level constants to Package.values map.
- opt: don't call localValueSpec for constants.
(The resulting code is always optimised away.)
There are a number of comments asking whether Literals
should have positions. Will address in a follow-up.
Added tests of all interesting cases.

of imported named types.
Also:

Before, all values received on some channel by Select would
flow to an empty interface, creating a spurious confluence for
flow analyses. Now, the tuple returned by Select has one
component for each 'receive' case.
Also, fixes:
- Removed workarounds for now-fixed typechecker bug in FuncLit+TypeAssert.
- sanity check that all Value Instructions have non-nil Type().
- Convert: document and sanity-check that at least one of the types is basic.
Also, other things to help clients:
- Define CallInstruction interface: common parts of Call, Go, Defer.
- Add CallCommon.Signature() method.
- Literal.Pos() is now populated.

methodIndex() utility was split and specialized to its two
cases, *Interface vs *Named, which are logically quite
different.
We can't memoize promotion wrappers yet; we need typemap.
Terminology:
- "thunks" are now "wrappers"
- "bridge methods" are now "promotion wrappers"
Where the diff is messy it's just because of indentation.

Method sets:
- Simplify CallCommon.
Avoid the implicit copy when calling a T method on a *T
receiver. This simplifies clients. Instead we generate
"indirection wrapper" functions that do this (like gc does).
New invariant:
m's receiver type is exactly T for all m in MethodSet(T)
- MakeInterface no longer holds the concrete type's MethodSet.
We can defer its computation this way.
- ssa.Type now just wraps a types.TypeName object.
MethodSets are computed as needed, not eagerly.
Position info:
- new CanonicalPos utility maps ast.Expr to canonical
token.Pos, as returned by {Instruction,Value}.Pos() methods.
- Don't set posn for implicit operations (e.g. varargs array alloc)
- Set position info for ChangeInterface and Slice instructions.
Cosmetic:
- add Member.Token() method
- simplify isPointer
- Omit words "interface", "slice" when printing MakeInterface,
MakeSlice; the type is enough.
- Comments on PathEnclosingInterval.
- Remove Function.FullName() where implicit String() suffices.
Also:
- Exposed NewLiteral to clients.
- Added ssa.Instruction.Parent() *Function
Added ssa.BasicBlock.Parent() *Function.
Added Sanity checks for above.

over imports.
Typical usage is now:
prog := ssa.NewProgram(imp.Fset, mode)
prog.CreatePackages(imp)
prog.BuildAll()
Builder.BuildPackage(Package) is now Package.Build()
Builder.BuildAllPackages() is now Program.BuildAll()
