Otherwise the next goroutine run on the m
can get inadvertently locked if it executes a cgo call
that turns on the internal lock.
While we're here, fix the cgo panic unwind to
decrement m->ncgo like the non-panic unwind does.
Fixes#4971.

Since NUL usually terminates strings in underlying syscalls, allowing
it when converting string arguments is a security risk, especially
when dealing with filenames. For example, a program might reason that
filename like "/root/..\x00/" is a subdirectory or "/root/" and allow
access to it, while underlying syscall will treat "\x00" as an end of
that string and the actual filename will be "/root/..", which might
be unexpected. Returning EINVAL when string arguments have NUL in
them makes sure this attack vector is unusable.

New DLL and Proc types to manage and call dll functions. These were
used to simplify syscall tests in runtime package. They were also
used to implement LazyDLL and LazyProc.
LazyProc, like Proc, now have Call function, that just a wrapper for
SyscallN. It is not as efficient as Syscall, but easier to use.
NewLazyDLL now supports non-ascii filenames.
LazyDLL and LazyProc now have Load and Find methods. These can be used
during runtime to discover if some dll functions are not present.
All dll functions now return errors that fit os.Error interface. They
also contain Windows error number.
Some of these changes are suggested by jp.
