runtime: add deletion barriers on gobuf.ctxt

Browse source 
gobuf.ctxt is set to nil from many places in assembly code and these
assignments require write barriers with the hybrid barrier.

Conveniently, in most of these places ctxt should already be nil, in
which case we don't need the barrier. This commit changes these places
to assert that ctxt is already nil.

gogo is more complicated, since ctxt may not already be nil. For gogo,
we manually perform the write barrier if ctxt is not nil.

Updates #17503.
