- do not lose profiling signals when we have no mcache (possible for syscalls/cgo)
- do not lose any profiling signals on windows
- fix profiling of cgo programs on windows (they had no m->thread setup)
- properly setup tls in cgo programs on windows
- check _beginthread return value

Now that liblink is compiled into the compilers and assemblers,
it must not refer to the "linkmode", since that is not known until
link time. This CL makes the ARM support no longer use linkmode,
which fixes a bug with cgo binaries that contain their own TLS
variables.
The x86 code must also remove linkmode; that is issue 7164.
Fixes#6992.

The escape analysis works by tracing assignment paths from
variables that start with pointer type, or addresses of variables
(addresses are always pointers). It does allow non-pointers
in the path, so that in this code it sees x's value escape into y:
var x *[10]int
y := (*int)(unsafe.Pointer(uintptr(unsafe.Pointer(x))+32))
It must allow uintptr in order to see through this kind of
"pointer arithmetic".
It also traces such values if they end up as uintptrs passed to
functions. This used to be important because packages like
encoding/gob passed around uintptrs holding real pointers.
The introduction of precise collection of stacks has forced
code to be more honest about which declared stack variables
hold pointers and which do not. In particular, the garbage
collector no longer sees pointers stored in uintptr variables.
Because of this, packages like encoding/gob have been fixed.
There is not much point in the escape analysis accepting
uintptrs as holding pointers at call boundaries if the garbage
collector does not.
Excluding uintptr-valued arguments brings the escape
analysis in line with the garbage collector and has the
useful side effect of making arguments to syscall.Syscall
not appear to escape.
That is, this CL should yield the same benefits as
CL 45930043 (rolled back in CL 53870043), but it does
so by making uintptrs less special, not more.

Currently we collect (add) all roots into a global array in a single-threaded GC phase.
This hinders parallelism.
With this change we just kick off parallel for for number_of_goroutines+5 iterations.
Then parallel for callback decides whether it needs to scan stack of a goroutine
scan data segment, scan finalizers, etc. This eliminates the single-threaded phase entirely.
This requires to store all goroutines in an array instead of a linked list
(to allow direct indexing).
This CL also removes DebugScan functionality. It is broken because it uses
unbounded stack, so it can not run on g0. When it was working, I've found
it helpless for debugging issues because the two algorithms are too different now.
This change would require updating the DebugScan, so it's simpler to just delete it.
With 8 threads this change reduces GC pause by ~6%, while keeping cputime roughly the same.

What was happenning is as follows:
Each writer goroutine always triggers GC during its scheduling quntum.
After GC goroutines are shuffled so that the timer goroutine is always second in the queue.
This repeats infinitely, causing timer goroutine starvation.

It's pretty distracting to use expvar with the output of both
the top-level map and map values jumping around randomly.
Also fixes a potential race where multiple clients trying to
increment a map int or float key at the same time could lose

syscall: mark arguments to Syscall as noescape
Heap arguments to "async" syscalls will break when/if we have moving GC anyway.
With this change is must not break until moving GC, because a user must
reference the object in Go to preserve liveness. Otherwise the code is broken already.
Reduces number of leaked params from 125 to 36 on linux.

Recent crashes on 386 Darwin appear to be caused by this system call
smashing the stack. Phenomenology shows that allocating more data
here addresses the probem.
The guess is that since the actual system call is getdirentries64, 64 is
what we should allocate.
Should fix the darwin/386 build.

decrypt: reduced the number of copy calls from 2n to 1.
encrypt: reduced the number of copy calls from n to 1.
Encryption is straight-forward: use dst instead of tmp when
xoring the block with the iv.
Decryption now loops backwards through the blocks abusing the
fact that the previous block's ciphertext (src) is the iv. This
means we don't need to copy the iv every time, in addition to
using dst instead of tmp like encryption.
