g is not in r15 anymore.
now it's in a per-thread memory segment,
which is valid even inside a signal handler,
so we can just refer to g directly.
Fixes#1082.

Need to correct for deferproc's extra 2 words of stack or in some
cases (such as memory profiling) traceback can cause a crash.
Also bulletproof the closure test.

Old code was using recursion to traverse object graph.
New code uses an explicit stack, cutting the per-pointer
footprint to two words during the recursion and avoiding
the standard allocator and stack splitting code.
in test/garbage:
Reduces parser runtime by 2-3%
Reduces Peano runtime by 40%
Increases tree runtime by 4-5%

Based on the observation that a great number of the types that
are copied or compared in interfaces, maps, and channels are
word-sized, this uses specialized copy and equality functions
for them that use a word instead of 4 or 8 bytes. Seems to yield
0-6% improvements in performance in the benchmarks I've run.
For example, with the regexp benchmarks:
Before:
regexp.BenchmarkLiteral 500000 3.26 µs/op
regexp.BenchmarkNotLiteral 100000 13.67 µs/op
regexp.BenchmarkMatchClass 100000 18.72 µs/op
regexp.BenchmarkMatchClass_InRange 100000 20.04 µs/op
regexp.BenchmarkReplaceAll 100000 27.85 µs/op
After:
regexp.BenchmarkLiteral 500000 3.11 µs/op
regexp.BenchmarkNotLiteral 200000 13.29 µs/op
regexp.BenchmarkMatchClass 100000 17.65 µs/op
regexp.BenchmarkMatchClass_InRange 100000 18.49 µs/op
regexp.BenchmarkReplaceAll 100000 26.34 µs/op

The runtime only passes 32 bits of file offset,
but the kernel wants 64 bits, so have to add
zeros explicitly in a copy of the arguments.

Returns R14 and R15 to the available register pool.
Plays more nicely with ELF ABI C code.
In particular, our signal handlers will no longer crash
when a signal arrives during execution of a cgo C call.

Cannot assume that g == m->curg at time of signal.
Must save actual g and restore.
Fixes flaky crashes with messages like
throw: malloc mlookup
throw: malloc/free - deadlock
throw: unwindstack on self
throw: free mlookup
(and probably others) when running cgo.

* Code for assignment, conversions now mirrors spec.
* Changed some snprint -> smprint.
* Renamed runtime functions to separate
interface conversions from type assertions:
convT2I, assertI2T, etc.
* Correct checking of \U sequences.
