Keith Randall 9dac0a8132 runtime: on a signal, set traceback address to a deferreturn call
When a function triggers a signal (like a segfault which translates to
a nil pointer exception) during execution, a sigpanic handler is just
below it on the stack.  The function itself did not stop at a
safepoint, so we have to figure out what safepoint we should use to
scan its stack frame.

Previously we used the site of the most recent defer to get the live
variables at the signal site. That answer is not quite correct, as
explained in #27518. Instead, use the site of a deferreturn call.
It has all the right variables marked as live (no args, all the return
values, except those that escape to the heap, in which case the
corresponding PAUTOHEAP variables will be live instead).

This CL requires stack objects, so that all the local variables
and args referenced by the deferred closures keep the right variables alive.

Fixes #27518
