The object files begin with a header that is
$GOARCH
on a line by itself. This CL changes that header to
go object $GOOS $GOARCH release.2011-01-01 4567+
where the final two fields are the most recent release
tag and the current hg version number.
All objects imported into a Go compilation or linked into an
executable must have the same header line, and that header
line must match the compiler and linker versions.
The effect of this will be that if you update and run all.bash
and then try to link in objects compiled with an earlier version
of the compiler (or invoke the wrong version of the compiler),
you will get an error showing the different headers instead
of perhaps silent incompatibility.
Normal usage with all.bash should be unaffected, because
all.bash deletes all the object files in $GOROOT/pkg/$GOOS_$GOARCH
and cleans all intermediate object files before starting.
This change is intended to diagnose stale objects arising when
users maintaining alternate installation directories forget to
rebuild some of their files after updating.
It should help make the adoption of $GOPATH (CL 3780043)
less error-prone.

Also, if the header is bad, exit with a non-zero status.
Other calls to Brdline in the tree, by category:
Reading symbol name from object file:
./cmd/5l/obj.c:486: name = Brdline(f, '\0');
./cmd/6l/obj.c:535: name = Brdline(f, '\0');
./cmd/8l/obj.c:564: name = Brdline(f, '\0');
./libmach/sym.c:292: cp = Brdline(bp, '\0');
Reading archive header line (fixed, short):
./cmd/gc/lex.c:287: if((a = Brdline(b, '\n')) == nil)
./cmd/gc/lex.c:303: if((p = Brdline(b, '\n')) == nil)
Reading object file header line (fixed, short):
./cmd/ld/lib.c:421: line = Brdline(f, '\n');
Reading undefined symbol list (unused code):
./cmd/ld/lib.c:773: while((l = Brdline(b, '\n')) != nil){
Implementing Brdstr:
./libbio/brdstr.c:36: p = Brdline(bp, delim);
The symbol names ones will cause a problem loudly if they
fail: they'll error out with symbol name too long. This means
that you can't define an enormous struct without giving the
type a name and then stick it in an interface, because the
type's symbol name will be too long for the object file.
Since this will be a loud failure instead of a silent one,
I'm willing to wait until it comes up in practice.

There's only one Go object file per package now,
so there's no need to parse the metadata and merge
metadata from multiple files. Just save the original
and use it as __.PKGDEF verbatim.

5g/6g/8g: add import statements to export metadata, mapping package path to package name.
recognize "" as the path of the package in export metadata.
use "" as the path of the package in object symbol names.
5c/6c/8c, 5a/6a/8a: rewrite leading . to "". so that ·Sin means Sin in this package.
5l/6l/8l: rewrite "" in symbol names as object files are read.
gotest: handle new symbol names.
gopack: handle new import lines in export metadata.
Collectively, these changes eliminate the assumption of a global
name space in the object file formats. Higher level pieces such as
reflect and the computation of type hashes still depend on the
assumption; we're not done yet.

the bash scripts and makefiles for building go didn't take into account
the fact $GOROOT / $GOBIN could both be directories containing whitespaces,
and was not possible to build it in such a situation.
this commit adjusts the various makefiles/scripts to make it aware of that
possibility, and now it builds successfully when using a path with whitespaces
as well.
Fixes#115.

1. allocate an extra byte for use by write.
2. throw away the code trying to translate
uid and gid to names. i suspect it of causing
seg faults in some situations, and it is
not needed by the compilers.
Fixes#48. (I hope.)
