Rob Pike 049b89dc6f fmt: treat reflect.Value specially - as the value it holds
When a reflect.Value is passed to Printf (etc.), fmt called the
String method, which does not disclose its contents. To get the
contents, one could call Value.Interface(), but that is illegal
if the Value is not exported or otherwise forbidden.

This CL improves the situation with a trivial change to the
fmt package: when we see a reflect.Value as an argument,
we treat it exactly as we treat a reflect.Value we make inside
the package. This means that we always print the
contents of the Value as if _that_ was the argument to Printf.

This is arguably a breaking change but I think it is a genuine
improvement and no greater a break than many other tweaks
we have made to formatted output from this package.

Fixes #8965.

Binary Distribution Notes

If you have just untarred a binary Go distribution, you need to set the environment variable $GOROOT to the full path of the go directory (the one containing this file). You can omit the variable if you unpack it into /usr/local/go, or if you rebuild from sources by running all.bash (see doc/install-source.html). You should also add the Go binary directory $GOROOT/bin to your shell's path.

For example, if you extracted the tar file into $HOME/go, you might put the following in your .profile:

export GOROOT=$HOME/go
export PATH=$PATH:$GOROOT/bin

See https://golang.org/doc/install or doc/install.html for more details.
