Russ Cox 54af9a3ba5 runtime: reintroduce ``dead'' space during GC scan
Reintroduce an optimization discarded during the initial conversion
from 4-bit heap bitmaps to 2-bit heap bitmaps: when we reach the
place in the bitmap where there are no more pointers, mark that position
for the GC so that it can avoid scanning past that place.

During heapBitsSetType we can also avoid initializing heap bitmap
beyond that location, which gives a bit of a win compared to Go 1.4.
This particular optimization (not initializing the heap bitmap) may not last:
we might change typedmemmove to use the heap bitmap, in which
case it would all need to be initialized. The early stop in the GC scan
will stay no matter what.

Compared to Go 1.4 (github.com/rsc/go, branch go14bench):
name                    old mean              new mean              delta
SetTypeNode64           80.7ns × (1.00,1.01)  57.4ns × (1.00,1.01)  -28.83% (p=0.000)
SetTypeNode64Dead       80.5ns × (1.00,1.01)  13.1ns × (0.99,1.02)  -83.77% (p=0.000)
SetTypeNode64Slice      2.16µs × (1.00,1.01)  1.54µs × (1.00,1.01)  -28.75% (p=0.000)
SetTypeNode64DeadSlice  2.16µs × (1.00,1.01)  1.52µs × (1.00,1.00)  -29.74% (p=0.000)

Compared to previous CL:
name                    old mean              new mean              delta
SetTypeNode64           56.7ns × (1.00,1.00)  57.4ns × (1.00,1.01)   +1.19% (p=0.000)
SetTypeNode64Dead       57.2ns × (1.00,1.00)  13.1ns × (0.99,1.02)  -77.15% (p=0.000)
SetTypeNode64Slice      1.56µs × (1.00,1.01)  1.54µs × (1.00,1.01)   -0.89% (p=0.000)
SetTypeNode64DeadSlice  1.55µs × (1.00,1.01)  1.52µs × (1.00,1.00)   -2.23% (p=0.000)

This is the last CL in the sequence converting from the 4-bit heap
to the 2-bit heap, with all the same optimizations reenabled.
Compared to before that process began (compared to CL 9701 patch set 1):

The slowdown of the first few benchmarks seems to be due to the new
atomic operations for certain small size allocations. But the larger
benchmarks mostly improve, probably due to the decreased memory
pressure from having half as much heap bitmap.

CL 9706, which removes the (never used anymore) wbshadow mode,
gets back what is lost in the early microbenchmarks.

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.
