5473103666 go spec: clarify semantics of range clause 
This CL proposes some subtle language changes
in an attempt to clarify the semantics of range
clauses and simplify uses of maps.

- nil maps behave like empty maps; but attempting
  to set a value in a nil map causes a run-time panic
- nil channels are never ready for communication;
  sending or reading from a nil channel blocks forever
- if there is only one index iteration variable in a
  range clause and len(range expression) would be a constant,
  the range expression is not evaluated.
  (was discrepancy with len/cap before)
- the notion of what is a constant expression len(x)
  for (pointer to) arrays x has been generalized and
  simplified (can still be syntactically decided)
  (before: more restrictive syntactic rule that was not
  consistently implemented)

Fixes #1713.

fa3d0d73f0 go spec: adjust notion of Assignability 
This change makes it legal to pass a struct value as receiver
outside the package declaring the struct even if the respective
struct type has non-exported fields.

This is a backwards-compatible language change motivated by the
fact that it is already possible to circumvent the assignment
restriction when calling methods through interfaces (see issue
1402).

a6736cae30 spec: allow imported packages named main 
Prior to this CL, there were two requirements about the
package name main.

1. The package that sits at the root of the import graph
   (the one where program execution begins)
   must be named main.

2. No other package in the program can be named main.

This CL only removes requirement #2, which can be done
without changing any other Go documentation.

The new wording and formatting is such that removing
requirement #1 can be done by deleting a single line,
but making that change is explicitly outside the scope
of this CL, because it would require changes to other
documentation at the same time.

b50ed022f5 go spec: follow-up cleanups after communication operator changes 
These are syntactical changes to better reflect the communication
operator's new status in the language.

- sending to a channel is now done via a send statement
- there is no binary communication operation anymore which
  leads to a reduction of the number of precedence levels
  from 6 to 5 (yeah!)
- small semantic change: since a send operation is not part
  of the expression syntax anymore, a <- send operator is
  binding weaker than any other operator now
- receiving from a channel is done as before via the unary
  receive expression
- communication clauses in select statement now can contain
  send statements or receive expressions

b94c0d2a77 go spec: remove float, complex in favor of float64 and complex128 
The default float type is not very useful but for the most basic applications.
For instance, as it is now, using the math package requires conversions for float
variables (the arguments for math functions are usually float64). Typical real
applications tend to specify the floating point precision required.

This proposal removes the predeclared types float and complex. Variable declarations
without type specification but with constant floating point or complex initializer
expressions will assume the type float64 or complex128 respectively.

The predeclared function cmplx is renamed to complex.

07cc6440dc go_spec: don't allow parens around the literal type of composite literals 
Background: The current spec is imprecise with respect to the parsing ambiguity
for composite literals: It says that the ambiguity arises when the TypeName form
of the LiteralType is used. The following code:

    if (B) {} ...

is not using the TypeName form (but the parenthesized TypeName form) and thus
could be interpreted as:

    if ((B){}) ...

instead of

    if B {} ...

Both compilers and gofmt choose the latter interpretation. One could fix the
spec by making the clause regarding the parsing ambiguity more precise ("...using
the _possibly parenthesized_ TypeName form of the LiteralType..."). The alternative
(chosen here) is to simply disallow parenthesized literal types. Except for a single
test case (test/parentype.go) there appears to be no Go code under $GOROOT containing
parenthesized literal types. Furthermore, parentheses are never needed around a
literal type for correct parsing.

c1045db1d8 go_spec: use PrimaryExpr as type switch expression 
Without this change, the spec parses <-c.(type) as (<-c).(type)
but parses <-c.(int) as <-(c.(int)).

With this change, the former parses as <-(c.(type)).

All three parsers already implement this rule, because
they look for the "type" word during parsing of a standard
type assertion.  This change merely brings the
spec in line with the implementations.

53440da835 Factored out boilerplate from all html docs in doc directory: 
- the first HTML comment in those files is extracted as page
  title when serving them
- lib/godoc.html is top-level template for all pages served
- experimented a bit with package documentation layout
  (feedback welcome)
- various related cleanups

TODO:
- The / page (doc/root.html) content repeats links that are
  in the navigation bar. It needs to be cleaned up.

698c6c00a0 A step towards "externalizing" some Go docs. 
+ style sheet: like code.google.com but less feature-ful
+ JS with table-of-contents generation
+ tweaked go_spec.html and go_mem.html to use new style+JS
+ static-HTML-ified a few other Go docs:
  + static HTML versions of some wiki pages (which I'll turn
    into links to these pages).

A notable thing that is _not_ in this changelist: any change
to the godoc tool or whatever thing generates http://go/godoc

Major ones:
* Be consistent: "numeric type" and "arithmetic operator".
* if/swtch take "simple statement" not "short variable declaration".
* There was a comment that implied for x,y := range z() might
  evaluate z() multiple times.  I deleted it.

some are not and it reduces redundancy to combine them.
