garbage collection metadata, changes the C and Go compilers
to emit that metadata, and changes the runtime to expect it.

If the stack frame size is larger than the known-unmapped region at the
bottom of the address space, then the stack split prologue cannot use the usual
condition:
SP - size >= stackguard
because SP - size may wrap around to a very large number.
Instead, if the stack frame is large, the prologue tests:
SP - stackguard >= size
(This ends up being a few instructions more expensive, so we don't do it always.)
Preemption requests register by setting stackguard to a very large value, so
that the first test (SP - size >= stackguard) cannot possibly succeed.
Unfortunately, that same very large value causes a wraparound in the
second test (SP - stackguard >= size), making it succeed incorrectly.
To avoid *that* wraparound, we have to amend the test:
stackguard != StackPreempt && SP - stackguard >= size
This test is only used for functions with large frames, which essentially
always split the stack, so the cost of the few instructions is noise.
This CL and CL 11085043 together fix the known issues with preemption,
at the beginning of a function, so we will be able to try turning it on again.

The current cas64 definition hard-codes the x86 behavior
of updating *old with the new value when the cas fails.
This is inconsistent with cas32 and casp.
Make it consistent.
This means that the cas64 uses will be epsilon less efficient
than they might be, because they have to do an unnecessary
memory load on x86. But so be it. Code clarity and consistency
is more important.

runtime.newproc/ready are deliberately sloppy about waking new M's,
they only ensure that there is at least 1 spinning M.
Currently to compensate for that, schedule() checks if the current P
has local work and there are no spinning M's, it wakes up another one.
It does not work if goroutines do not call schedule.
With this change a spinning M wakes up another M when it finds work to do.
It's also not ideal, but it fixes the underutilization.

This is reincarnation of cl/9776044 with the bug fixed.
The bug was due to code added after cl/9776044 was created:
if(tick - (((uint64)tick*0x4325c53fu)>>36)*61 == 0 && runtime·sched.runqsize > 0) {
runtime·lock(&runtime·sched);
gp = globrunqget(m->p, 1);
runtime·unlock(&runtime·sched);
}
If M gets gp from global runq here, it does not reset m->spinning.

On x86 it is a few words lower on the stack than m->morebuf.sp
so it is a more precise check. Enabling the check requires recording
