This CL introduces the typeOff type and a lookup method of the same
name that can turn a typeOff offset into an *rtype.
In a typical Go binary (built with buildmode=exe, pie, c-archive, or
c-shared), there is one moduledata and all typeOff values are offsets
relative to firstmoduledata.types. This makes computing the pointer
cheap in typical programs.
With buildmode=shared (and one day, buildmode=plugin) there are
multiple modules whose relative offset is determined at runtime.
We identify a type in the general case by the pair of the original
*rtype that references it and its typeOff value. We determine
the module from the original pointer, and then use the typeOff from
there to compute the final *rtype.
To ensure there is only one *rtype representing each type, the
runtime initializes a typemap for each module, using any identical
type from an earlier module when resolving that offset. This means
that types computed from an offset match the type mapped by the
pointer dynamic relocations.
A series of followup CLs will replace other *rtype values with typeOff
(and name/*string with nameOff).
For types created at runtime by reflect, type offsets are treated as
global IDs and reference into a reflect offset map kept by the runtime.

3. reflect.FuncOf is limited to 128 parameters.

On most systems, a pointer is the worst case alignment, so adding
a pointer field at the end of a struct guarantees there will be no
padding added after that field (to satisfy overall struct alignment
due to some more-aligned field also present).
In the runtime, the map implementation needs a quick way to
get to the overflow pointer, which is last in the bucket struct,
so it uses size - sizeof(pointer) as the offset.
NaCl/amd64p32 is the exception, as always.
The worst case alignment is 64 bits but pointers are 32 bits.
There's a long history that is not worth going into, but when
we moved the overflow pointer to the end of the struct,
we didn't get the padding computation right.
The compiler computed the regular struct size and then
on amd64p32 added another 32-bit field.
And the runtime assumed it could step back two 32-bit fields
(one 64-bit register size) to get to the overflow pointer.
But in fact if the struct needed 64-bit alignment, the computation
of the regular struct size would have added a 32-bit pad already,
and then the code unconditionally added a second 32-bit pad.
This placed the overflow pointer three words from the end, not two.
The last two were padding, and since the runtime was consistent
about using the second-to-last word as the overflow pointer,
no harm done in the sense of overwriting useful memory.
But writing the overflow pointer to a non-pointer word of memory
means that the GC can't see the overflow blocks, so it will
collect them prematurely. Then bad things happen.
Correct all this in a few steps:
1. Add an explicit check at the end of the bucket layout in the
compiler that the overflow field is last in the struct, never
followed by padding.
2. When padding is needed on nacl (not always, just when needed),
insert it before the overflow pointer, to preserve the "last in the struct"
property.
3. Let the compiler have the final word on the width of the struct,
by inserting an explicit padding field instead of overwriting the
results of the width computation it does.
4. For the same reason (tell the truth to the compiler), set the type
of the overflow field when we're trying to pretend its not a pointer
(in this case the runtime maintains a list of the overflow blocks
elsewhere).
5. Make the runtime use "last in the struct" as its location algorithm.
This fixes TestTraceStress on nacl/amd64p32.
The 'bad map state' and 'invalid free list' failures no longer occur.

A send on an unbuffered channel to a blocked receiver is the only
case in the runtime where one goroutine writes directly to the stack
of another. The garbage collector assumes that if a goroutine is
blocked, its stack contains no new pointers since the last time it ran.
The send on an unbuffered channel violates this, so it needs an
explicit write barrier. It has an explicit write barrier, but not one that
can handle a write to another stack. Use one that can (based on type bitmap
instead of heap bitmap).
To make this work, raise the limit for type bitmaps so that they are
used for all types up to 64 kB in size (256 bytes of bitmap).
(The runtime already imposes a limit of 64 kB for a channel element size.)

Small types record the location of pointers in their memory layout
by using a simple bitmap. In Go 1.4 the bitmap held 4-bit entries,
and in Go 1.5 the bitmap holds 1-bit entries, but in both cases using
a bitmap for a large type containing arrays does not make sense:
if someone refers to the type [1<<28]*byte in a program in such
a way that the type information makes it into the binary, it would be
a waste of space to write a 128 MB (for 4-bit entries) or even 32 MB
(for 1-bit entries) bitmap full of 1s into the binary or even to keep
one in memory during the execution of the program.
For large types containing arrays, it is much more compact to describe
the locations of pointers using a notation that can express repetition
than to lay out a bitmap of pointers. Go 1.4 included such a notation,
called ``GC programs'' but it was complex, required recursion during
decoding, and was generally slow. Dmitriy measured the execution of
these programs writing directly to the heap bitmap as being 7x slower
than copying from a preunrolled 4-bit mask (and frankly that code was
not terribly fast either). For some tests, unrollgcprog1 was seen costing
as much as 3x more than the rest of malloc combined.
This CL introduces a different form for the GC programs. They use a
simple Lempel-Ziv-style encoding of the 1-bit pointer information,
in which the only operations are (1) emit the following n bits
and (2) repeat the last n bits c more times. This encoding can be
generated directly from the Go type information (using repetition
only for arrays or large runs of non-pointer data) and it can be decoded
very efficiently. In particular the decoding requires little state and
no recursion, so that the entire decoding can run without any memory
accesses other than the reads of the encoding and the writes of the
decoded form to the heap bitmap. For recursive types like arrays of
arrays of arrays, the inner instructions are only executed once, not
n times, so that large repetitions run at full speed. (In contrast, large
repetitions in the old programs repeated the individual bit-level layout
of the inner data over and over.) The result is as much as 25x faster
decoding compared to the old form.
Because the old decoder was so slow, Go 1.4 had three (or so) cases
for how to set the heap bitmap bits for an allocation of a given type:
(1) If the type had an even number of words up to 32 words, then
the 4-bit pointer mask for the type fit in no more than 16 bytes;
store the 4-bit pointer mask directly in the binary and copy from it.
(1b) If the type had an odd number of words up to 15 words, then
the 4-bit pointer mask for the type, doubled to end on a byte boundary,
fit in no more than 16 bytes; store that doubled mask directly in the
binary and copy from it.
(2) If the type had an even number of words up to 128 words,
or an odd number of words up to 63 words (again due to doubling),
then the 4-bit pointer mask would fit in a 64-byte unrolled mask.
Store a GC program in the binary, but leave space in the BSS for
the unrolled mask. Execute the GC program to construct the mask the
first time it is needed, and thereafter copy from the mask.
(3) Otherwise, store a GC program and execute it to write directly to
the heap bitmap each time an object of that type is allocated.
(This is the case that was 7x slower than the other two.)
Because the new pointer masks store 1-bit entries instead of 4-bit
entries and because using the decoder no longer carries a significant
overhead, after this CL (that is, for Go 1.5) there are only two cases:
(1) If the type is 128 words or less (no condition about odd or even),
store the 1-bit pointer mask directly in the binary and use it to
initialize the heap bitmap during malloc. (Implemented in CL 9702.)
(2) There is no case 2 anymore.
(3) Otherwise, store a GC program and execute it to write directly to
the heap bitmap each time an object of that type is allocated.
Executing the GC program directly into the heap bitmap (case (3) above)
was disabled for the Go 1.5 dev cycle, both to avoid needing to use
GC programs for typedmemmove and to avoid updating that code as
the heap bitmap format changed. Typedmemmove no longer uses this
type information; as of CL 9886 it uses the heap bitmap directly.
Now that the heap bitmap format is stable, we reintroduce GC programs
and their space savings.

The above compares always using a cached pointer mask (and the
corresponding waste of memory) against using the programs directly.
Some slowdown is expected, in exchange for having a better general algorithm.
The GC programs kick in for SetTypeNode128, SetTypeNode130, SetTypeNode1024,
along with the slice variants of those.
It is possible that the cutoff of 128 words (bits) should be raised
in a followup CL, but even with this low cutoff the GC programs are
faster than Go 1.4's "fast path" non-GC program case.

SetTypeNode124 uses a 124 data + 2 ptr = 126-word allocation.
Both Go 1.4 and this CL are using pointer bitmaps for this case,
so that's an overall 3x speedup for using pointer bitmaps.
SetTypeNode128 uses a 128 data + 2 ptr = 130-word allocation.
Both Go 1.4 and this CL are running the GC program for this case,
so that's an overall 17x speedup when using GC programs (and
I've seen >20x on other systems).
Comparing Go 1.4's SetTypeNode124 (pointer bitmap) against
this CL's SetTypeNode128 (GC program), the slow path in the
code in this CL is 2x faster than the fast path in Go 1.4.
The Go 1 benchmarks are basically unaffected compared to just before this CL.

This CL is a bit larger than I would like, but the compiler, linker, runtime,
and package reflect all need to be in sync about the format of these programs,
so there is no easy way to split this into independent changes (at least
while keeping the build working at each change).

Preallocating them in reflect means that
(1) if you say _ = PtrTo(ArrayOf(1000000000, reflect.TypeOf(byte(0)))), you just allocated 1GB of data
(2) if you say it again, that's *another* GB of data.
The only use of t.zero in the runtime is for map elements.
Delay the allocation until the creation of a map with that element type,
and share the zeros.
The one downside of the shared zero is that it's not garbage collected,
but it's also never written, so the OS should be able to handle it fairly
efficiently.

The type information in reflect.Type and the GC programs is now
1 bit per word, down from 2 bits.
The in-memory unrolled type bitmap representation are now
1 bit per word, down from 4 bits.
The conversion from the unrolled (now 1-bit) bitmap to the
heap bitmap (still 4-bit) is not optimized. A followup CL will
work on that, after the heap bitmap has been converted to 2-bit.
The typeDead optimization, in which a special value denotes
that there are no more pointers anywhere in the object, is lost
in this CL. A followup CL will bring it back in the final form of
heapBitsSetType.

This adds a field to the runtime type structure that records the size
of the prefix of objects of that type containing pointers. Any data
after this offset is scalar data.
This is necessary for shrinking the type bitmaps to 1 bit and will
help the garbage collector efficiently estimate the amount of heap
that needs to be scanned.

The ptrto field of the type data cannot be relied on when dynamic linking: a
type T may be defined in a module that makes no use of pointers to that type,
but another module can contain a package that imports the first one and does use
*T pointers. The second module will end up defining type data for *T and a
type.*T symbol pointing at it. It's important that calling .PtrTo() on the
refect.Type for T returns this type data and not some synthesized object, so we
need reflect to be able to find it!
Fortunately, the reflect package already has a mechanism for doing this sort of
thing: ChanOf/MapOf/etc look for pre-existing type data by name. So this change
just extends PtrTo() to consult this too, and changes the compiler to include
pointer types in the data consulted when compiling for dynamic linking.

This also involves adding functions to typelinks along with a minor
change to ensure they are sorted correctly.
