Brad Fitzpatrick d5a8b9f571 doc: update go1.8.txt using new tool
With help of a new interactive commit classifier tool (tool location
TBD, likely x/build/cmd/writenotes), classify all commits from go1.7
up to 56d35d4.

We can selectively cull this list later. When in doubt, I erred on the
side of inclusion for now.
