Move the IndexByte function from the runtime to a new bytealg package.
The new package will eventually hold all the optimized assembly for
groveling through byte slices and strings. It seems a better home for
this code than randomly keeping it in runtime.
Once this is in, the next step is to move the other functions
(Compare, Equal, ...).
Update #19792
This change seems complicated enough that we might just declare
"not worth it" and abandon. Opinions welcome.
The core assembly is all unchanged, except minor modifications where
the code reads cpu feature bits.
The wrapper functions have been cleaned up as they are now actually
checked by vet.

The linker has been applying -X options before loading symbols,
meaning that when it sees -X y=z it creates a symbol named y
and initializes its string data to z. The symbol named y is marked
"DUPOK" so that when the actual packages are loaded, no error is
emitted when the real y is seen. The predefined y's data is used
instead of whatever the real y says.
If we define -X y=z and we never load y, then the predefined symbol
is dropped during dead code elimination, but not in shared library
builds. Shared library builds must include all symbols, so we have to
be more careful about not defining symbols that wouldn't have
appeared anyway.
To be more careful, save the -X settings until after all the symbols
are loaded from the packages, and then apply the string changes
to whatever symbols are known (but ignore the ones that were not
loaded at all). This ends up being simpler anyway, since it doesn't
depend on DUPOK magic.
Makes CL 86835 safe.

During Mach-O linking, dsymutil takes the DWARF from individual object
files and combines it into a debug archive. Because it's content-aware,
it doesn't need our help to do its job. Nonetheless, it does try to
honor relocations that are present in its input.
When dsymutil encounters a relocation, it uses the value of that
relocation as an index into the debug map to find its final location.
When it does that, it's assuming that the value is an address in the
object file. But DWARF references are section-relative. So when it
processes a relocation for a DWARF reference, it gets confused,
and if the value happens to match the address of a function or
data symbol, it will rewrite it incorrectly.
Since the relocations don't help, and can hurt, drop them when
externally linking a Mach-O binary.

Debuggers use DWARF information to find local variables on the
stack and in registers. Prior to this CL, the DWARF information for
functions claimed that all variables were on the stack at all times.
That's incorrect when optimizations are enabled, and results in
debuggers showing data that is out of date or complete gibberish.
After this CL, the compiler is capable of representing variable
locations more accurately, and attempts to do so. Due to limitations of
the SSA backend, it's not possible to be completely correct.
There are a number of problems in the current design. One of the easier
to understand is that variable names currently must be attached to an
SSA value, but not all assignments in the source code actually result
in machine code. For example:
type myint int
var a int
b := myint(int)
and
b := (*uint64)(unsafe.Pointer(a))
don't generate machine code because the underlying representation is the
same, so the correct value of b will not be set when the user would
expect.
Generating the more precise debug information is behind a flag,
dwarflocationlists. Because of the issues described above, setting the
flag may not make the debugging experience much better, and may actually
make it worse in cases where the variable actually is on the stack and
the more complicated analysis doesn't realize it.
A number of changes are included:
- Add a new pseudo-instruction, RegKill, which indicates that the value
in the register has been clobbered.
- Adjust regalloc to emit RegKills in the right places. Significantly,
this means that phis are mixed with StoreReg and RegKills after
regalloc.
- Track variable decomposition in ssa.LocalSlots.
- After the SSA backend is done, analyze the result and build location
lists for each LocalSlot.
- After assembly is done, update the location lists with the assembled
PC offsets, recompose variables, and build DWARF location lists. Emit the
list as a new linker symbol, one per function.
- In the linker, aggregate the location lists into a .debug_loc section.

The linker is pretty good at combining a bunch of symbols into a
section, so let it do .debug_ranges the normal way. Along the way,
remove a bunch of globals that were only used by one function that would
only be called once per invocation.

When using golang on ppc64le there have been issues
when building executables that generate extremely large text
sections. This is due to the call instruction and the limitation
on the offset field, which is smaller than most platforms. If the
size of the call target offset is too big for the offset field in
the call instruction, then link errors can occur.
The original solution to this problem in golang was to split the
text section when it became too large, allowing the external (GNU)
linker to insert the necessary stub to handle the long call. That
worked fine until the another size limit for the program size was hit,
where a plt_branch was created instead of a long branch. In that case
the plt_branch code sequence expects r2 to contain the address of the
TOC, but when golang creates dynamic executables by default
(-buildmode=exe) r2 does not always contain the address of the TOC
and as a result when building programs that reach this extremely
large size, a runtime SEGV or SIGILL can occur due to branching to a bad
address.
When using internal linking, trampolines are generated to handle the
long calls but the text sections are not split. With this change,
text sections will still be split approrpriately with external linking
but if the buildmode being used does not maintain r2 as the TOC
addresses, then trampolines will be created for those calls.

Change compiler and linker to emit DWARF lexical blocks in .debug_info
section when compiling with -N -l.
Version of debug_info is updated from DWARF v2 to DWARF v3 since
version 2 does not allow lexical blocks with discontinuous PC ranges.
Remaining open problems:
- scope information is removed from inlined functions
- variables records do not have DW_AT_start_scope attributes so a
variable will shadow other variables with the same name as soon as its
containing scope begins, even before its declaration.
Updates #6913.
Updates #12899.

Prior to this CL, the compiler and assembler
were sloppy about the LSym.Type for LSyms
containing static data.
The linker then fixed this up, converting
Sxxx and SBSS to SDATA, and SNOPTRBSS to SNOPTRDATA
if it noticed that the symbol had associated data.
It is preferable to just get this right in cmd/compile
and cmd/asm, because it removes an unnecessary traversal
of the symbol table from the linker (see #14624).
Do this by touching up the LSym.Type fixes in
LSym.prepwrite and Link.Globl.
I have confirmed by instrumenting the linker
that the now-eliminated code paths were unreached.
And an additional check in the object file writing code
will help preserve that invariant.
There was a case in the Windows linker,
with internal linking and cgo,
where we were generating SNOPTRBSS symbols with data.
For now, convert those at the site at which they occur
into SNOPTRDATA, just like they were.
Does not pass toolstash-check,
but does generate identical linked binaries.
No compiler performance changes.

Many (most!) of the values of objapi.SymKind are used only in the linker, so
this creates a separate cmd/link/internal/ld.SymKind type, removes most values
from SymKind and maps one to the other when reading object files in the linker.
Two of the remaining objapi.SymKind values are only checked for, never set and
so will never be actually found but I wanted to keep this to the most
mechanical change possible.
