Austin Clements bb44c2b54e sync: implement OnceFunc, OnceValue, and OnceValues
This adds the three functions from #56102 to the sync package. These
provide a convenient API for the most common uses of sync.Once.

The performance of these is comparable to direct use of sync.Once:

$ go test -run ^$ -bench OnceFunc\|OnceVal -count 20 | benchstat -row .name -col /v
goos: linux
goarch: amd64
pkg: sync
cpu: 11th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-1185G7 @ 3.00GHz
          │     Once     │                Global                 │                Local                 │
          │    sec/op    │    sec/op     vs base                 │    sec/op     vs base                │
OnceFunc    1.3500n ± 6%   2.7030n ± 1%  +100.22% (p=0.000 n=20)   0.3935n ± 0%  -70.86% (p=0.000 n=20)
OnceValue   1.3155n ± 0%   2.7460n ± 1%  +108.74% (p=0.000 n=20)   0.5478n ± 1%  -58.35% (p=0.000 n=20)

The "Once" column represents the baseline of how code would typically
express these patterns using sync.Once. "Global" binds the closure
returned by OnceFunc/OnceValue to global, which is how I expect these
to be used most of the time. Currently, this defeats some inlining
opportunities, which roughly doubles the cost over sync.Once; however,
it's still *extremely* fast. Finally, "Local" binds the returned
closure to a local variable. This unlocks several levels of inlining
and represents pretty much the best possible case for these APIs, but
is also unlikely to happen in practice. In principle the compiler
could recognize that the global in the "Global" case is initialized in
place and never mutated and do the same optimizations it does in the
"Local" case, but it currently does not.

Fixes #56102
