Currently mmap returns an unsafe.Pointer that encodes OS errors as
values less than 4096. In practice this is okay, but it borders on
being really unsafe: for example, the value has to be checked
immediately after return and if stack copying were ever to observe
such a value, it would panic. It's also not remotely idiomatic.
Fix this by making mmap return a separate pointer value and error,
like a normal Go function.
Updates #22218.

Currently, threads created by the runtime exist until the whole
program exits. For #14592 and #20395, we want to be able to exit and
clean up threads created by the runtime. This commit implements that
mechanism.
The main difficulty is how to clean up the g0 stack. In cgo mode and
on Solaris and Windows where the OS manages thread stacks, we simply
arrange to return from mstart and let the system clean up the thread.
If the runtime allocated the g0 stack, then we use a new exitThread
syscall wrapper that arranges to clear a flag in the M once the stack
can safely be reaped and call the thread termination syscall.
exitThread is based on the existing exit1 wrapper, which was always
meant to terminate the calling thread. However, exit1 has never been
used since it was introduced 9 years ago, so it was broken on several
platforms. exitThread also has the additional complication of having
to flag that the stack is unused, which requires some tricks on
platforms that use the stack for syscalls.
This still leaves the problem of how to reap the unused g0 stacks. For
this, we move the M from allm to a new freem list as part of the M
exiting. Later, allocm scans the freem list, finds Ms that are marked
as done with their stack, removes these from the list and frees their
g0 stacks. This also allows these Ms to be garbage collected.
This CL does not yet use any of this functionality. Follow-up CLs
will. Likewise, there are no new tests in this CL because we'll need
follow-up functionality to test it.

On 32-bit architectures (or if we fail to map a 64-bit-style arena),
we try to map the heap arena just above the end of the process image.
While we can accept any address, using lower addresses is preferable
because lower addresses cause us to map less of the heap bitmap.
However, if a program is linked against C code that has global
constructors, those constructors may call brk/sbrk to allocate memory
(e.g., many C malloc implementations do this for small allocations).
The brk also starts just above the process image, so this may adjust
the brk past the beginning of where we want to put the heap arena. In
this case, the kernel will pick a different address for the arena and
it will usually be very high (at least, as these things go in a 32-bit
address space).
Fix this by consulting the current value of the brk and using this in
addition to the end of the process image to compute the initial arena
placement.
This is implemented only on Linux currently, since we have no evidence
that it's an issue on any other OSes.
Fixes#19831.

While debugging a recent regression it was discovered that
the assembler for ppc64x was not always generating the correct
instruction for DS form loads and stores. When an instruction
is DS form then the offset must be a multiple of 4, and if it
isn't then bits outside the offset field were being incorrectly
set resulting in unexpected and incorrect instructions.
This change adds a check to determine when the opcode is DS form
and then verifies that the offset is a multiple of 4 before
generating the instruction, otherwise logs an error.
This also changes a few asm files that were using unaligned offsets
for DS form loads and stores. In the runtime package these were
instructions intended to cause a crash so using aligned or unaligned
offsets doesn't change that behavior.

The PowerPC ISA does not have a PC-relative load instruction, which poses
obvious challenges when generating position-independent code. The way the ELFv2
ABI addresses this is to specify that r2 points to a per "module" (shared
library or executable) TOC pointer. Maintaining this pointer requires
cooperation between codegen and the system linker:
* Non-leaf functions leave space on the stack at r1+24 to save the TOC pointer.
* A call to a function that *might* have to go via a PLT stub must be followed
by a nop instruction that the system linker can replace with "ld r1, 24(r1)"
to restore the TOC pointer (only when dynamically linking Go code).
* When calling a function via a function pointer, the address of the function
must be in r12, and the first couple of instructions (the "global entry
point") of the called function use this to derive the address of the TOC
for the module it is in.
* When calling a function that is implemented in the same module, the system
linker adjusts the call to skip over the instructions mentioned above (the
"local entry point"), assuming that r2 is already correctly set.
So this changeset adds the global entry point instructions, sets the metadata so
the system linker knows where the local entry point is, inserts code to save the
TOC pointer at 24(r1), adds a nop after any call not known to be local and copes
with the odd non-local code transfer in the runtime (e.g. the stuff around
jmpdefer). It does not actually compile PIC yet.
