David Crawshaw ce9b512ccc runtime: copy env strings on startup
Some versions of libc, in this case Android's bionic, point environ
directly at the envp memory.

https://android.googlesource.com/platform/bionic/+/master/libc/bionic/libc_init_common.cpp#104

The Go runtime does something surprisingly similar, building the
runtime's envs []string using gostringnocopy. Both libc and the Go
runtime reusing memory interacts badly. When syscall.Setenv uses cgo
to call setenv(3), C modifies the underlying memory of a Go string.

This manifests on android/arm. With GOROOT=/data/local/tmp, a
runtime test calls syscall.Setenv("/os"), resulting in
runtime.GOROOT()=="/os\x00a/local/tmp/goroot".

Avoid this by copying environment string memory into Go.

Covered by runtime.TestFixedGOROOT on android/arm.

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.
