A //go:debug line mentioning an unknown or retired setting
should be diagnosed as making the program invalid. Do that.
We agreed on this in the proposal but I forgot to implement it.

This signature uses the wrong type for the passed function, which
will be saved in the internal runtime map. Since the functions are
likely compatible (uint64 return versus int64), this may work but
should generally be fixed.
This is other instance of #58440.

Allow GODEBUG users to report how many times a setting
resulted in non-default behavior.
Record non-default-behaviors for all existing GODEBUGs.
Also rework tests to ensure that runtime is in sync with runtime/metrics.All,
and generate docs mechanically from metrics.All.
For #56986.

We have been expanding our use of GODEBUG for compatibility,
and the current implementation forces a tradeoff between
freshness and efficiency. It parses the environment variable
in full each time it is called, which is expensive. But if clients
cache the result, they won't respond to run-time GODEBUG
changes, as happened with x509sha1 (#56436).
This CL changes the GODEBUG API to provide efficient,
up-to-date results. Instead of a single Get function,
New returns a *godebug.Setting that itself has a Get method.
Clients can save the result of New, which is no more expensive
than errors.New, in a global variable, and then call that
variable's Get method to get the value. Get costs only two
atomic loads in the case where the variable hasn't changed
since the last call.
Unfortunately, these changes do require importing sync
from godebug, which will mean that sync itself will never
be able to use a GODEBUG setting. That doesn't seem like
such a hardship. If it was really necessary, the runtime could
pass a setting to package sync itself at startup, with the
caveat that that setting, like the ones used by runtime itself,
would not respond to run-time GODEBUG changes.

The immediate reason is that we want to use godebug from math/rand,
and math/rand importing godebug importing os causes an import cycle
in package testing.
More generally, the new approach to backward compatibility outlined
in discussion #55090 will require using this package from other similarly
sensitive places, perhaps even package os itself. Best to remove all
dependencies.
Preparation for #54880.
