Austin Clements 0710cce6eb [dev.simd] runtime: remove write barrier in xRegRestore
Currently, there's a write barrier in xRegRestore when it assigns
pp.xRegs.cache = gp.xRegs.state. This is bad because that gets called
on the asyncPreempt return path, where we have really limited stack
space, and we don't currently account for this write barrier.

We can't simply mark xRegState as sys.NotInHeap because it's also
embedded in runtime.p as register scratch space, and runtime.p is heap
allocated.

Hence, to fix this, we rename xRegState to just "xRegs" and introduce
a wrapper "xRegState" type that embeds xRegs and is itself marked
sys.NotInHeap. Then, anywhere we need a manually-managed pointer to
register state, we use the new type.

To ensure this doesn't happen again in the future, we also mark
asyncPreempt2 as go:nowritebarrierrec.
