The ld time was dominated by symbol table processing, so
* increase hash table size
* emit fewer symbols in gc (just 1 per string, 1 per type)
* add read-only lookup to avoid creating spurious symbols
* add linked list to speed whole-table traversals
Breaks dwarf generator (no idea why), so disable dwarf.
Reduces time for 6l to link godoc by 25%.

x.go:13: cannot use t (type T) as type Reader in assignment:
T does not implement Reader (Read method requires pointer receiver)
x.go:19: cannot use q (type Q) as type Reader in assignment:
Q does not implement Reader (missing Read method)
have read()
want Read()
x.go:22: cannot use z (type int) as type Reader in assignment:
int does not implement Reader (missing Read method)
x.go:24: too many arguments to conversion to complex: complex(1, 3)

5g/6g/8g: add import statements to export metadata, mapping package path to package name.
recognize "" as the path of the package in export metadata.
use "" as the path of the package in object symbol names.
5c/6c/8c, 5a/6a/8a: rewrite leading . to "". so that ·Sin means Sin in this package.
5l/6l/8l: rewrite "" in symbol names as object files are read.
gotest: handle new symbol names.
gopack: handle new import lines in export metadata.
Collectively, these changes eliminate the assumption of a global
name space in the object file formats. Higher level pieces such as
reflect and the computation of type hashes still depend on the
assumption; we're not done yet.

* switch to real dot (.) instead of center dot (·) everywhere in object files.
before it was half and half depending on where in the name it appeared.
* in 6c/6a/etc identifiers, · can still be used but turns into . immediately.
* in export metadata, replace package identifiers with quoted strings
(still package names, not paths).

* give genwrapper and genembedtramp the same signature.
* move duint8, duint16, duint32, duint64, duintptr into gc.
* tidy genwrapper.
* bug involving struct field symbols in signature list.
(hash-order dependent so hard to trigger)
* new Type print format %#-T like %#T but omits
names on function arguments.
