Russ Cox 25733a94fd reflect: support for struct tag use by multiple packages
Each package using struct field tags assumes that
it is the only package storing data in the tag.
This CL adds support in package reflect for sharing
tags between multiple packages.  In this scheme, the
tags must be of the form

        key:"value" key2:"value2"

(raw strings help when writing that tag in Go source).

reflect.StructField's Tag field now has type StructTag
(a string type), which has method Get(key string) string
that returns the associated value.

Clients of json and xml will need to be updated.
Code that says

        type T struct {
                X int "name"
        }

should become

        type T struct {
                X int `json:"name"`  // or `xml:"name"`
        }

Use govet to identify struct tags that need to be changed
to use the new syntax.

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 README).  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.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 doc/install.html for more details.
