Surrogate halves are part of UTF-16 and should never appear in UTF-8.
(The rune that two combined halves represent in UTF-16 should
be encoded directly.)
Encoding: encode as RuneError.
Decoding: convert to RuneError, consume one byte.
This requires changing:

Since NUL usually terminates strings in underlying syscalls, allowing
it when converting string arguments is a security risk, especially
when dealing with filenames. For example, a program might reason that
filename like "/root/..\x00/" is a subdirectory or "/root/" and allow
access to it, while underlying syscall will treat "\x00" as an end of
that string and the actual filename will be "/root/..", which might
be unexpected. Returning EINVAL when string arguments have NUL in
them makes sure this attack vector is unusable.

When a cgo program calls setuid, setgid, etc., the GNU/Linux
pthread library sends signal SIGSETXID to each thread to tell
it to update its UID info. If Go is permitted to intercept
the default SIGSETXID signal handler, the program will hang.
This patch tells the runtime package to not try to intercept
SIGSETXID on GNU/Linux. This will be odd if a Go program
wants to try to use that signal, but it means that cgo
programs that call setuid, etc., won't hang.

This should make profiling a little better on OS X.
The raw time saved is unlikely to matter: what likely matters
more is that it seems like OS X sends profiling signals on the
way out of system calls more often than it should; avoiding
the system call should increase the accuracy of cpu profiles.
The 386 version would be similar but needs to do different

Change 5660047 moved an FLDCW instruction
that disables invalid operand traps into
runtime·asminit, which is called from
runtime·mstart. Thus, runtime·check is being
called prior to setting the appropriate control bits,
which on any QNaN comparison will cause Plan 9
to take an invalid operand trap. This change loads
the control bits (for Plan 9) prior to runtime·check.
