Currently, cmd/compile optimizes `var a = true; var b = a` into `var a
= true; var b = true`. But this may not be safe if we need to
initialize any other global variables between `a` and `b`, and the
initialization involves calling a user-defined function that reassigns
`a`.
This CL changes staticinit to keep track of the initialization
expressions that we've seen so far, and to stop applying the
staticcopy optimization once we've seen an initialization expression
that might have modified another global variable within this package.
To help identify affected initializers, this CL adds a -d=staticcopy
flag to warn when a staticcopy is suppressed and turned into a dynamic
copy.
Currently, `go build -gcflags=all=-d=staticcopy std` reports only four
instances:
```
encoding/xml/xml.go:1600:5: skipping static copy of HTMLEntity+0 with map[string]string{...}
encoding/xml/xml.go:1869:5: skipping static copy of HTMLAutoClose+0 with []string{...}
net/net.go:661:5: skipping static copy of .stmp_31+0 with poll.ErrNetClosing
net/http/transport.go:2566:5: skipping static copy of errRequestCanceled+0 with ~R0
```
Fixes#51913.
