Recursive panics leave dangling Panic structs in g->panic stack.
At best it leads to a Defer leak and incorrect output on a subsequent panic.
At worst it arbitrary corrupts heap.

One reason the sync.Pool finalizer test can fail is that
this function's ef1 contains uninitialized data that just
happens to point at some of the old pool. I've seen this cause
retention of a single pool cache line (32 elements) on arm.
Really we need liveness information for C functions, but
for now we can be more careful about data in long-lived
C functions that block.

Instead, split the underlying storage in half and
free just half of it.
Shrinking without copying lets us reclaim storage used
by a previously profligate Go routine that has now blocked
inside some C code.
To shrink in place, we need all stacks to be a power of 2 in size.

Two memory allocator bug fixes.
- efence is not maintaining the proper heap metadata
to make eventual memory reuse safe, so use SysFault.
- now that our heap PageSize is 8k but most hardware
uses 4k pages, SysAlloc and SysReserve results must be
explicitly aligned. Do that in a few more call sites and
document this fact in malloc.h.

Implement custom assembly thunks for hot race calls (memory accesses and function entry/exit).
The thunks extract caller pc, verify that the address is in heap or global and switch to g0 stack.
Before:
ok regexp 3.692s
ok compress/bzip2 9.461s
ok encoding/json 6.380s
After:
ok regexp 2.229s (-40%)
ok compress/bzip2 4.703s (-50%)
ok encoding/json 3.629s (-43%)
For comparison, normal non-race build:
ok regexp 0.348s
ok compress/bzip2 0.304s
ok encoding/json 0.661s
Race build:
ok regexp 2.229s (+540%)
ok compress/bzip2 4.703s (+1447%)
ok encoding/json 3.629s (+449%)
Also removes some race-related special cases from cgocall and scheduler.

During the glob decoding process interface values are set to concrete
values after a test for assignability. If the assignability test fails
a slightly vague error message is produced. While technically accurate
the error message does not clearly describe the problem.
Rewrite the error message to include the usage of the word assignable,
which makes it clear the concrete value type is not assignable to the
interface value type.

32-bit Windows uses "structured exception handling" (SEH) to
handle hardware faults: that there is a per-thread linked list
of fault handlers maintained in user space instead of
something like Unix's signal handlers. The structures in the
linked list are required to live on the OS stack, and the
usual discipline is that the function that pushes a record
(allocated from the current stack frame) onto the list pops
that record before returning. Not to pop the entry before
returning creates a dangling pointer error: the list head
points to a stack frame that no longer exists.
Go pushes an SEH record in the top frame of every OS thread,
and that record suffices for all Go execution on that thread,
at least until cgo gets involved.
If we call into C using cgo, that called C code may push its
own SEH records, but by the convention it must pop them before
returning back to the Go code. We assume it does, and that's
fine.
If the C code calls back into Go, we want the Go SEH handler
to become active again, not whatever C has set up. So
runtime.callbackasm1, which handles a call from C back into
Go, pushes a new SEH record before calling the Go code and
pops it when the Go code returns. That's also fine.
It can happen that when Go calls C calls Go like this, the
inner Go code panics. We allow a defer in the outer Go to
recover the panic, effectively wiping not only the inner Go
frames but also the C calls. This sequence was not popping the
SEH stack up to what it was before the cgo calls, so it was
creating the dangling pointer warned about above. When
eventually the m stack was used enough to overwrite the
dangling SEH records, the SEH chain was lost, and any future
panic would not end up in Go's handler.
The bug in TestCallbackPanic and friends was thus creating a
situation where TestSetPanicOnFault - which causes a hardware
fault - would not find the Go fault handler and instead crash
the binary.
Add checks to TestCallbackPanicLocked to diagnose the mistake
in that test instead of leaving a bad state for another test
case to stumble over.
Fix bug by restoring SEH chain during deferred "endcgo"
cleanup.
This bug is likely present in Go 1.2.1, but since it depends
on Go calling C calling Go, with the inner Go panicking and
the outer Go recovering the panic, it seems not important
enough to bother fixing before Go 1.3. Certainly no one has
complained.
