Austin Clements 7a71726b1f runtime: check alignment of 8-byte atomic loads and stores on 386
Currently, if we do an atomic{load,store}64 of an unaligned address on
386, we'll simply get a non-atomic load/store.  This has been the
source of myriad bugs, so add alignment checks to these two
operations.  These checks parallel the equivalent checks in
sync/atomic.

The alignment check is not necessary in cas64 because it uses a locked
instruction.  The CPU will either execute this atomically or raise an
alignment fault (#AC)---depending on the alignment check flag---either
of which is fine.

This also fixes the two places in the runtime that trip the new
checks.  One is in the runtime self-test and shouldn't have caused
real problems.  The other is in tickspersecond and could, in
principle, have caused a misread of the ticks per second during
initialization.

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.
