Make it accept type, combine flags.
Several reasons for the change:
1. mallocgc and settype must be atomic wrt GC
2. settype is called from only one place now
3. it will help performance (eventually settype
functionality must be combined with markallocated)
4. flags are easier to read now (no mallocgc(sz, 0, 1, 0) anymore)

Debugging the Windows breakage I noticed that SEH
only exists on 386, so we can balance the two stacks
a little more on amd64 and reclaim another word.
Now we're down to just one word consumed by
cgocallback_gofunc, having reclaimed 25% of the
overall budget (4 words out of 16).
Separately, fix windows/386 - the SEH must be on the
m0 stack, as must the saved SP, so we are forced to have
a three-word frame for 386. It matters much less for
386, because there 128 bytes gives 32 words to use.

Tying preemption to stack splits means that we have to able to
complete the call to exitsyscall (inside cgocallbackg at least for now)
without any stack split checks, meaning that the whole sequence
has to work within 128 bytes of stack, unless we increase the size
of the red zone. This CL frees up 24 bytes along that critical path
on amd64. (The 32-bit systems have plenty of space because all
their words are smaller.)

Until now, the goroutine state has been scattered during the
execution of newstack and oldstack. It's all there, and those routines
know how to get back to a working goroutine, but other pieces of
the system, like stack traces, do not. If something does interrupt
the newstack or oldstack execution, the rest of the system can't
understand the goroutine. For example, if newstack decides there
is an overflow and calls throw, the stack tracer wouldn't dump the
goroutine correctly.
For newstack to save a useful state snapshot, it needs to be able
to rewind the PC in the function that triggered the split back to
the beginning of the function. (The PC is a few instructions in, just
after the call to morestack.) To make that possible, we change the
prologues to insert a jmp back to the beginning of the function
after the call to morestack. That is, the prologue used to be roughly:
TEXT myfunc
check for split
jmpcond nosplit
call morestack
nosplit:
sub $xxx, sp
Now an extra instruction is inserted after the call:
TEXT myfunc
start:
check for split
jmpcond nosplit
call morestack
jmp start
nosplit:
sub $xxx, sp
The jmp is not executed directly. It is decoded and simulated by
runtime.rewindmorestack to discover the beginning of the function,
and then the call to morestack returns directly to the start label
instead of to the jump instruction. So logically the jmp is still
executed, just not by the cpu.
The prologue thus repeats in the case of a function that needs a
stack split, but against the cost of the split itself, the extra few
instructions are noise. The repeated prologue has the nice effect of
making a stack split double-check that the new stack is big enough:
if morestack happens to return on a too-small stack, we'll now notice
before corruption happens.
The ability for newstack to rewind to the beginning of the function
should help preemption too. If newstack decides that it was called
for preemption instead of a stack split, it now has the goroutine state
correctly paused if rescheduling is needed, and when the goroutine
can run again, it can return to the start label on its original stack
and re-execute the split check.
Here is an example of a split stack overflow showing the full
trace, without any special cases in the stack printer.
(This one was triggered by making the split check incorrect.)

In starttheworld() we assume that P's with local work
are situated in the beginning of idle P list.
However, once we start the first M, it can execute all local G's
and steal G's from other P's.
That breaks the assumption above. Thus starttheworld() will fail
to start some P's with local work.
It seems that it can not lead to very bad things, but still
it's wrong and breaks other assumtions
(e.g. we can have a spinning M with local work).

When cgo is used, runtime creates an additional M to handle callbacks on threads not created by Go.
This effectively disabled deadlock detection, which is a right thing, because Go program can be blocked
and only serve callbacks on external threads.
This also disables deadlock detection under race detector, because it happens to use cgo.
With this change the additional M is created lazily on first cgo call. So deadlock detector
works for programs that import "C", "net" or "net/http/pprof" but do not use them in fact.
Also fixes deadlock detector under race detector.
It should be fine to create the M later, because C code can not call into Go before first cgo call,
because C code does not know when Go initialization has completed. So a Go program need to call into C
first either to create an external thread, or notify a thread created in global ctor that Go
initialization has completed.

Garbage collection code (to be merged later) is calling functions
which have many local variables. This increases the probability that
the stack capacity won't be big enough to hold the local variables.
So, start gc() on a bigger stack to eliminate a potentially large number
of calls to runtime·morestack().

This CL makes the runtime understand that the type of
the len or cap of a map, slice, or string is 'int', not 'int32',
and it is also careful to distinguish between function arguments
and results of type 'int' vs type 'int32'.
In the runtime, the new typedefs 'intgo' and 'uintgo' refer
to Go int and uint. The C types int and uint continue to be
unavailable (cause intentional compile errors).
This CL does not change the meaning of int, but it should make
the eventual change of the meaning of int on amd64 a bit
smoother.
Update #2188.

The change is a preparation for the new scheduler.
It introduces runtime.park() function,
that will atomically unlock the mutex and park the goroutine.
It will allow to remove the racy readyonstop flag
that is difficult to implement w/o the global scheduler mutex.

Move panic/defer/recover-related stuff from proc.c/runtime.c to a new file panic.c.
No semantic changes.
proc.c is 1800+ LOC and is a bit difficult to work with.

1. Rename 'g' and 'm' local vars to 'gp' and 'mp' (convention already used in some functions)
'g' and 'm' are global vars that mean current goroutine and current machine,
when they are shadowed by local vars, it's confusing, no ability to debug log both, etc.
2. White-space shuffling.
No semantic changes.
In preparation to bigger changes.

Parallel GC needs to know in advance how many helper threads will be there.
Hopefully it's the last patch before I can tackle parallel sweep phase.
The benchmarks are unaffected.

Not a complete fix for issue 3342, but fixes the trivial case.
There may still be a race in the instants before and after
a scavenger-induced garbage collection.
Intended to be "obviously safe": a call to runtime·gosched
before main.main is no different than a call to runtime.Gosched
at the beginning of main.main, and it is (or had better be)
safe to call runtime.Gosched at any point during main.
Update #3342.

There was a small window during program initialization
where a signal could come in before the handling mechanisms
were set up to handle it. Delay the signal-handler installation
until we're ready for the signals.
Fixes#3314.

Work around profiling kernel bug with signal masks.
Still broken on 64-bit Snow Leopard kernel,
but I think we can ignore that one and let people
upgrade to Lion.
Add new trivial tools addr2line and objdump to take
the place of the GNU tools of the same name, since
those are not installed on OS X.
Adapt pprof to invoke 'go tool addr2line' and
'go tool objdump' if the system tools do not exist.
Clean up disassembly of base register on amd64.
Fixes#2008.

morebuf holds a pc/sp from the last stack split or
reflect.call or panic/recover. If the pc is a closure,
the reference will keep it from being collected.
moreargp holds a pointer to the arguments from the
last stack split or reflect.call or panic/recover.
Normally it is a stack pointer and thus not of interest,
but in the case of reflect.call it is an allocated argument
list and holds up the arguments to the call.

The m->cret word holds the C return value when returning
across a stack split boundary. It was not being cleared after
use, which means that the return value (if a C function)
or else the value of AX/R0 at the time of the last stack unsplit
was being kept alive longer than necessary. Clear it.
I think the effect here should be very small, but worth fixing
anyway.

Periodically browse MHeap's freelists for long unused spans and release them if any.
Current hardcoded settings:
- GC is forced if none occured over the last 2 minutes.
- spans are handed back after 5 minutes of uselessness.
SysUnused (for Unix) is a wrapper on madvise MADV_DONTNEED on Linux and MADV_FREE on BSDs.
