The [568]c compilers no longer support packed structs, so
using them with -cdefs no longer works. Just commenting out
the test, rather than removing it, in case this needs to be
handled. It may be that -cdefs can go away entirely in the
future, in which case so can this directory.

Instead of including <sys/types.h> to get size_t, instead include
the ISO C standard <stddef.h> header, which defines fewer additional
types at risk of colliding with the user code. In particular, this
prevents collisions between <sys/types.h>'s userspace definitions with
the kernel definitions needed by defs_linux.go.
Also, -cdefs mode uses #pragma pack, so we can keep misaligned fields.
Fixes#8477.

Clang does not record the "size" field for pointer types,
so we must insert the size ourselves. We were already
doing this, but only for the case of pointer types.
For an array of pointer types, the setting of the size for
the nested pointer type was happening after the computation
of the size of the array type, meaning that the array type
was always computed as 0 bytes. Delay the size computation.
This bug happens on all Clang systems, not just FreeBSD.
Our test checked that cgo wrote something, not that it was correct.
FreeBSD's default clang rejects array[0] as a C struct field,
so it noticed the incorrect sizes. But the sizes were incorrect
everywhere.
Update testcdefs to check the output has the right semantics.
Fixes#6292.

The problem is that the cdecl() function in cmd/cgo/godefs.go isn't
properly translating the Go array type to a C array type when an
asterisk follows the [] in the array type declaration (it is perfectly
legal to put the asterisk on either side of the [] in go syntax,
depending on how you set up your pointers).
That said, the cdefs tool is only designed to translate from Go types
generated using the cgo *godefs* tool -- where the godefs tool is
designed to translate gcc-style C types into Go types. In essence, the
cdefs tool translates from gcc-style C types to Go types (via the godefs
tool), then back to kenc-style C types. Because of this, cdefs does not
need to know how to translate arbitraty Go types into C, just the ones
produced by godefs.
The problem is that during this translation process, the logic is
slightly wrong when going from (e.g.):
char *array[10];
to:
array [10]*int8;
back to:
int8 *array[10];
In the current implementation of cdecl(), the translation from the Go
type declaration back to the kenc-style declaration looks for Go
types of the form:
name *[]type;
rather than the actual generated Go type declaration of:
name []*type;
Both are valid Go syntax, with slightly different semantics, but the
latter is the only one that can ever be generated by the godefs tools.
(The semantics of the former are not directly expressible in a
single C statement -- you would have to have to first typedef the array
type, then declare a pointer to that typedef'd type in a separate
statement).
This commit changes the logic of cdecl() to look properly for, and
translate, Go type declarations of the form:
name []*type;
Additionally, the original implementation only allowed for a single
asterisk and a single sized aray (i.e. only a single level of pointer
indirection, and only one set of []) on the type, whereas the patched
version allows for an arbitrary number of both.
Tests are included in misc/cgo/testcdefs and the all.bash script has been
updated to account for these.
