UTF-8 string, Yconv() converts it into an octal sequence. If the
string converted to more than 30 bytes, the str buffer would
overflow. For example, 4 Greek runes became 32 bytes, 3 Hiragana
runes became 36 bytes, and 2 Gothic runes became 32 bytes. In
8l, 6l and 5l the function is Sconv(). For some reason, only 5l uses
the constant STRINGSZ (defined as 200) for the buffer size.

the bash scripts and makefiles for building go didn't take into account
the fact $GOROOT / $GOBIN could both be directories containing whitespaces,
and was not possible to build it in such a situation.
this commit adjusts the various makefiles/scripts to make it aware of that
possibility, and now it builds successfully when using a path with whitespaces
as well.
Fixes#115.

and make 5c, 8c use them.
centralizes reachability analysis
and switch generation.
now 8c doesn't have spurious warnings
in pkg/runtime.

(on plan 9 cc calls it log2, but that conflicts here.)
the difference is that xlog2 returns -1 on non powers of 2.
8c was rewriting /10 into /8.

add "extern register" support to 8c.
extern register means allocate in the FS-relative segment.
make 8l generate segmented stack checks.
