This is part two if the nacl removal. Part 1 was CL 199499.
This CL removes amd64p32 support, which might be useful in the future
if we implement the x32 ABI. It also removes the nacl bits in the
toolchain, and some remaining nacl bits.

Shrinks the size of things that can be stack allocated from
10M to 128k for declared variables and from 64k to 16k for
implicit allocations (new(T), &T{}, etc).
Usage: "go build -gcflags -smallframes hello.go"
An earlier GOEXPERIMENT version of this caused only one
problem, when a gc-should-detect-oversize-stack test no
longer had an oversized stack to detect. The change was
converted to a flag to make it easier to access (for
diagnosing "long" GC-related single-thread pauses) and to
remove interference with the test.
Includes test to verify behavior.

When a defer is executed at most once in a function body,
we can allocate the defer record for it on the stack instead
of on the heap.
This should make defers like this (which are very common) faster.
This optimization applies to 363 out of the 370 static defer sites
in the cmd/go binary.

This is part of a general effort to shrink walk.
In an ideal world, we'd have an SSA op for allocation,
but we don't yet have a good mechanism for introducing
function calling during SSA compilation.
In the meantime, SSA conversion is a better place for it.
This also makes it easier to introduce new optimizations;
instead of doing the typecheck walk dance,
we can simply write what we want the backend to do.
I introduced a new opcode in this change because:
(a) It avoids a class of bugs involving correctly detecting
whether this ONEW is a "before walk" ONEW or an "after walk" ONEW.
It also means that using ONEW or ONEWOBJ in the wrong context
will generally result in a faster failure.
(b) Opcodes are cheap.
(c) It provides a better place to put documentation.

A recent change to fix stacktraces for inlined functions
introduced a regression on ppc64le when compiling position
independent code. That happened because ginsnop2 was called for
the purpose of inserting a NOP to identify the location of
the inlined function, when ginsnop should have been used.
ginsnop2 is intended to be used before deferreturn to ensure
r2 is properly restored when compiling position independent code.
In some cases the location where r2 is loaded from might not be
initialized. If that happens and r2 is used to generate an address,
the result is likely a SEGV.
This fixes that problem.

Insert appropriate race/msan calls before each memory operation during
SSA construction.
This is conceptually simple, but subtle because we need to be careful
that inserted instrumentation calls don't clobber arguments that are
currently being prepared for a user function call.
reorder1 already handles introducing temporary variables for arguments
in some cases. This CL changes it to use them for all arguments when
instrumenting.
Also, we can't SSA struct types with more than one field while
instrumenting. Otherwise, concurrent uses of disjoint fields within an
SSA-able struct can introduce false races.
This is both somewhat better and somewhat worse than the old racewalk
instrumentation pass. We're now able to easily recognize cases like
constructing non-escaping closures on the stack or accessing closure
variables don't need instrumentation calls. On the other hand,
spilling escaping parameters to the heap now results in an
instrumentation call.
Overall, this CL results in a small net reduction in the number of
instrumentation calls, but a small net increase in binary size for
instrumented executables. cmd/go ends up with 5.6% fewer calls, but a
2.4% larger binary.

There were multiple ad hoc ways to create method symbols, with subtle
and confusing differences between them. This CL unifies them into a
single well-documented encoding and implementation.
This introduces some inconsequential changes to symbol format for the
sake of simplicity and consistency. Two notable changes:
1) Symbol construction is now insensitive to the package currently
being compiled. Previously, non-exported methods on anonymous types
received different method symbols depending on whether the method was
local or imported.
2) Symbols for method values parenthesized non-pointer receiver types
and non-exported method names, and also always package-qualified
non-exported method names. Now they use the same rules as normal
method symbols.
The methodSym function is also now stricter about rejecting
non-sensical method/receiver combinations. Notably, this means that
typecheckfunc needs to call addmethod to validate the method before
calling declare, which also means we no longer emit errors about
redeclaring bogus methods.

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.

This CL adds initial support for concurrent backend compilation.
BACKGROUND
The compiler currently consists (very roughly) of the following phases:
1. Initialization.
2. Lexing and parsing into the cmd/compile/internal/syntax AST.
3. Translation into the cmd/compile/internal/gc AST.
4. Some gc AST passes: typechecking, escape analysis, inlining,
closure handling, expression evaluation ordering (order.go),
and some lowering and optimization (walk.go).
5. Translation into the cmd/compile/internal/ssa SSA form.
6. Optimization and lowering of SSA form.
7. Translation from SSA form to assembler instructions.
8. Translation from assembler instructions to machine code.
9. Writing lots of output: machine code, DWARF symbols,
type and reflection info, export data.
Phase 2 was already concurrent as of Go 1.8.
Phase 3 is planned for eventual removal;
we hope to go straight from syntax AST to SSA.
Phases 5–8 are per-function; this CL adds support for
processing multiple functions concurrently.
The slowest phases in the compiler are 5 and 6,
so this offers the opportunity for some good speed-ups.
Unfortunately, it's not quite that straightforward.
In the current compiler, the latter parts of phase 4
(order, walk) are done function-at-a-time as needed.
Making order and walk concurrency-safe proved hard,
and they're not particularly slow, so there wasn't much reward.
To enable phases 5–8 to be done concurrently,
when concurrent backend compilation is requested,
we complete phase 4 for all functions
before starting later phases for any functions.
Also, in reality, we automatically generate new
functions in phase 9, such as method wrappers
and equality and has routines.
Those new functions then go through phases 4–8.
This CL disables concurrent backend compilation
after the first, big, user-provided batch of
functions has been compiled.
This is done to keep things simple,
and because the autogenerated functions
tend to be small, few, simple, and fast to compile.
USAGE
Concurrent backend compilation still defaults to off.
To set the number of functions that may be backend-compiled
concurrently, use the compiler flag -c.
In future work, cmd/go will automatically set -c.
Furthermore, this CL has been intentionally written
so that the c=1 path has no backend concurrency whatsoever,
not even spawning any goroutines.
This helps ensure that, should problems arise
late in the development cycle,
we can simply have cmd/go set c=1 always,
and revert to the original compiler behavior.
MUTEXES
Most of the work required to make concurrent backend
compilation safe has occurred over the past month.
This CL adds a handful of mutexes to get the rest of the way there;
they are the mutexes that I didn't see a clean way to avoid.
Some of them may still be eliminable in future work.
In no particular order:
* gc.funcsymsmu. The global funcsyms slice is populated
lazily when we need function symbols for closures.
This occurs during gc AST to SSA translation.
The function funcsym also does a package lookup,
which is a source of races on types.Pkg.Syms;
funcsymsmu also covers that package lookup.
This mutex is low priority: it adds a single global,
it is in an infrequently used code path, and it is low contention.
Since funcsyms may now be added in any order,
we must sort them to preserve reproducible builds.
* gc.largeStackFramesMu. We don't discover until after SSA compilation
that a function's stack frame is gigantic.
Recording that error happens basically never,
but it does happen concurrently.
Fix with a low priority mutex and sorting.
* obj.Link.hashmu. ctxt.hash stores the mapping from
types.Syms (compiler symbols) to obj.LSyms (linker symbols).
It is accessed fairly heavily through all the phases.
This is the only heavily contended mutex.
* gc.signatlistmu. The global signatlist map is
populated with types through several of the concurrent phases,
including notably via ngotype during DWARF generation.
It is low priority for removal.
* gc.typepkgmu. Looking up symbols in the types package
happens a fair amount during backend compilation
and DWARF generation, particularly via ngotype.
This mutex helps us to avoid a broader mutex on types.Pkg.Syms.
It has low-to-moderate contention.
* types.internedStringsmu. gc AST to SSA conversion and
some SSA work introduce new autotmps.
Those autotmps have their names interned to reduce allocations.
That interning requires protecting types.internedStrings.
The autotmp names are heavily re-used, and the mutex
overhead and contention here are low, so it is probably
a worthwhile performance optimization to keep this mutex.
TESTING
I have been testing this code locally by running
'go install -race cmd/compile'
and then doing
'go build -a -gcflags=-c=128 std cmd'
for all architectures and a variety of compiler flags.
This obviously needs to be made part of the builders,
but it is too expensive to make part of all.bash.
I have filed #19962 for this.
REPRODUCIBLE BUILDS
This version of the compiler generates reproducible builds.
Testing reproducible builds also needs automation, however,
and is also too expensive for all.bash.
This is #19961.
Also of note is that some of the compiler flags used by 'toolstash -cmp'
are currently incompatible with concurrent backend compilation.
They still work fine with c=1.
Time will tell whether this is a problem.
NEXT STEPS
* Continue to find and fix races and bugs,
using a combination of code inspection, fuzzing,
and hopefully some community experimentation.
I do not know of any outstanding races,
but there probably are some.
* Improve testing.
* Improve performance, for many values of c.
* Integrate with cmd/go and fine tune.
* Support concurrent compilation with the -race flag.
It is a sad irony that it does not yet work.
* Minor code cleanup that has been deferred during
the last month due to uncertainty about the
ultimate shape of this CL.

Going beyond c=4 on my machine tends to increase CPU time and allocs
without impacting real time.
The CPU time numbers matter, because when there are many concurrent
compilation processes, that will impact the overall throughput.
The numbers above are in many ways the best case scenario;
we can take full advantage of all cores.
Fortunately, the most common compilation scenario is incremental
re-compilation of a single package during a build/test cycle.

It also seems more semantically appropriate.
Do minor cleanup in addrescapes. I started on larger cleanup,

At VARKILLs, zero a variable if it is ambiguously live.
After the VARKILL anything this variable references
might be collected. If it were to become live again later,
the GC will see references to already-collected objects.
We don't know a variable is ambiguously live until very
late in compilation (after lowering, register allocation, ...),
so it is hard to generate the code in an arch-independent way.
We also have to be careful not to clobber any registers.
Fortunately, this almost never happens so performance is ~irrelevant.
There are only 2 instances where this triggers in the stdlib.

Instead of populating the aux symbol
of CALLudiv during rewrite rules,
populate it during genssa.
This simplifies the rewrite rules.
It also removes all remaining calls
to ctxt.Lookup from any rewrite rules.
This is a first step towards removing
ctxt from ssa.Cache entirely,
and also a first step towards converting
the obj.LSym.Version field into a boolean.
It should also speed up compilation.
Also, move func udiv into package runtime.
That's where it is anyway,
and it lets udiv look and act like the rest of
the runtime support functions.

- created new package cmd/compile/internal/types
- moved Pkg, Sym, Type to new package
- to break cycles, for now we need the (ugly) types/utils.go
file which contains a handful of functions that must be installed
early by the gc frontend
- to break cycles, for now we need two functions to convert between
*gc.Node and *types.Node (the latter is a dummy type)
- adjusted the gc's code to use the new package and the conversion
functions as needed
- made several Pkg, Sym, and Type methods functions as needed
- renamed constructors typ, typPtr, typArray, etc. to types.New,
types.NewPtr, types.NewArray, etc.
Passes toolstash-check -all.
