When everything is working correctly, any pointer the garbage
collector encounters can only point into a fully initialized heap
span, since the span must have been initialized before that pointer
could escape the heap allocator and become visible to the GC.
However, in various cases, we try to be defensive against bad
pointers. In findObject, this is just a sanity check: we never expect
to find a bad pointer, but programming errors can lead to them. In
spanOfHeap, we don't necessarily trust the pointer and we're trying to
check if it really does point to the heap, though it should always
point to something. Conservative scanning takes this to a new level,
since it can only guess that a word may be a pointer and verify this.
In all of these cases, we have a problem that the span lookup and
check can race with span initialization, since the span becomes
visible to lookups before it's fully initialized.
Furthermore, we're about to start initializing the span without the
heap lock held, which is going to introduce races where accesses were
previously protected by the heap lock.
To address this, this CL makes accesses to mspan.state atomic, and
ensures that the span is fully initialized before setting the state to
mSpanInUse. All loads are now atomic, and in any case where we don't
trust the pointer, it first atomically loads the span state and checks
that it's mSpanInUse, after which it will have synchronized with span
initialization and can safely check the other span fields.
For #10958, #24543, but a good fix in general.

In performance critical code, though, load the bitvector data

Currently, when the runtime looks up the stack map for a frame, it
uses frame.continpc - 1 unless continpc is the function entry PC, in
which case it uses frame.continpc. As a result, if continpc is the
function entry point (which happens for deferred frames), it will
actually look up the stack map *following* the first instruction.
I think, though I am not positive, that this is always okay today
because the first instruction of a function can never change the stack
map. It's usually not a CALL, so it doesn't have PCDATA. Or, if it is
a CALL, it has to have the entry stack map.
But we're about to start emitting stack maps at every instruction that
changes them, which means the first instruction can have PCDATA
(notably, in leaf functions that don't have a prologue).
To prepare for this, tweak how the runtime looks up stack map indexes
so that if continpc is the function entry point, it directly uses the
entry stack map.

Currently, the heap arena map is a single, large array that covers
every possible arena frame in the entire address space. This is
practical up to about 48 bits of address space with 64 MB arenas.
However, there are two problems with this:
1. mips64, ppc64, and s390x support full 64-bit address spaces (though
on Linux only s390x has kernel support for 64-bit address spaces).
On these platforms, it would be good to support these larger
address spaces.
2. On Windows, processes are charged for untouched memory, so for
processes with small heaps, the mostly-untouched 32 MB arena map
plus a 64 MB arena are significant overhead. Hence, it would be
good to reduce both the arena map size and the arena size, but with
a single-level arena, these are inversely proportional.
This CL adds support for a two-level arena map. Arena frame numbers
are now divided into arenaL1Bits of L1 index and arenaL2Bits of L2
index.
At the moment, arenaL1Bits is always 0, so we effectively have a
single level map. We do a few things so that this has no cost beyond
the current single-level map:
1. We embed the L2 array directly in mheap, so if there's a single
entry in the L2 array, the representation is identical to the
current representation and there's no extra level of indirection.
2. Hot code that accesses the arena map is structured so that it
optimizes to nearly the same machine code as it does currently.
3. We make some small tweaks to hot code paths and to the inliner
itself to keep some important functions inlined despite their
now-larger ASTs. In particular, this is necessary for
heapBitsForAddr and heapBits.next.
Possibly as a result of some of the tweaks, this actually slightly
improves the performance of the x/benchmarks garbage benchmark:

Currently almost every function that deals with a *_func has to first
look up the *moduledata for the module containing the function's entry
point. This means we almost always do at least two identical module
lookups whenever we deal with a *_func (one to get the *_func and
another to get something from its module data) and sometimes several
more.
Fix this by making findfunc return a new funcInfo type that embeds
*_func, but also includes the *moduledata, and making all of the
functions that currently take a *_func instead take a funcInfo and use
the already-found *moduledata.
This transformation is trivial for the most part, since the *_func
type is usually inferred. The annoying part is that we can no longer
use nil to indicate failure, so this introduces a funcInfo.valid()
method and replaces nil checks with calls to valid.

With the switch to separate mark bitmaps, the scan/dead bit for the
first word of each object is now unused. Reclaim this bit and use it
as a scan/dead bit, just like words three and on. The second word is
still used for checkmark.
This dramatically simplifies heapBitsSetTypeNoScan and hasPointers,
since they no longer need different cases for 1, 2, and 3+ word
objects. They can instead just manipulate the heap bitmap for the
first word and be done with it.
In order to enable this, we change heapBitsSetType and runGCProg to
always set the scan/dead bit to scan for the first word on every code
path. Since these functions only apply to types that have pointers,
there's no need to do this conditionally: it's *always* necessary to
set the scan bit in the first word.
We also change every place that scans an object and checks if there
are more pointers. Rather than only checking morePointers if the word
is >= 2, we now check morePointers if word != 1 (since that's the
checkmark word).
Looking forward, we should probably reclaim the checkmark bit, too,
but that's going to be quite a bit more work.
Tested by setting doubleCheck in heapBitsSetType and running all.bash
on both linux/amd64 and linux/386, and by running GOGC=10 all.bash.
This particularly improves the FmtFprintf* go1 benchmarks, since they
do a large amount of noscan allocation.

Instead of building a freelist from the mark bits generated
by the GC this CL allocates directly from the mark bits.
The approach moves the mark bits from the pointer/no pointer
heap structures into their own per span data structures. The
mark/allocation vectors consist of a single mark bit per
object. Two vectors are maintained, one for allocation and
one for the GC's mark phase. During the GC cycle's sweep
phase the interpretation of the vectors is swapped. The
mark vector becomes the allocation vector and the old
allocation vector is cleared and becomes the mark vector that
the next GC cycle will use.
Marked entries in the allocation vector indicate that the
object is not free. Each allocation vector maintains a boundary
between areas of the span already allocated from and areas
not yet allocated from. As objects are allocated this boundary
is moved until it reaches the end of the span. At this point
further allocations will be done from another span.
Since we no longer sweep a span inspecting each freed object
the responsibility for maintaining pointer/scalar bits in
the heapBitMap containing is now the responsibility of the
the routines doing the actual allocation.
This CL is functionally complete and ready for performance
tuning.

By replacing the *string used to represent pkgPath with a
reflect.name everywhere, the embedded *string for package paths
inside the reflect.name can be replaced by an offset, nameOff.
This reduces the number of pointers in the type information.
This also moves all reflect.name types into the same section, making
it possible to use nameOff more widely in later CLs.

After mdempsky's recent changes, these are the only references to
"TheChar" left in the Go tree. Without the context, and without
knowing the history, this is confusing.
Also rename sys.TheGoos and sys.TheGoarch to sys.GOOS
and sys.GOARCH.
Also change the heap dump format to include sys.GOARCH
rather than TheChar, which is no longer a concept.

Instead of a pointer on every rtype, use a bit flag to indicate that
the contents of uncommonType directly follows the rtype value when it
is needed.
This requires a bit of juggling in the compiler's rtype encoder. The
backing arrays for fields in the rtype are presently encoded directly
after the slice header. This packing requires separating the encoding
of the uncommonType slice headers from their backing arrays.

Applies to types fixAlloc, mCache, mCentral, mHeap, mSpan, and
mSpanList.
Two special cases:
1. mHeap_Scavenge() previously didn't take an *mheap parameter, so it
was specially handled in this CL.
2. mHeap_Free() would have collided with mheap's "free" field, so it's
been renamed to (*mheap).freeSpan to parallel its underlying
(*mheap).freeSpanLocked method.

Currently, startTheWorld clears preemptoff for the current M before
starting the world. A few callers increment m.locks around
startTheWorld, presumably to prevent preemption any time during
starting the world. This is almost certainly pointless (none of the
other callers do this), but there's no harm in making startTheWorld
keep preemption disabled until it's all done, which definitely lets us
drop these m.locks manipulations.

There are several steps to stopping and starting the world and
currently they're open-coded in several places. The garbage collector
is the only thing that needs to stop and start the world in a
non-trivial pattern. Replace all other uses with calls to higher-level
functions that implement the entire pattern necessary to stop and
start the world.
This is a pure refectoring and should not change any code semantics.
In the following commits, we'll make changes that are easier to do
with this abstraction in place.
This commit renames the old starttheworld to startTheWorldWithSema.
This is a slight misnomer right now because the callers release
worldsema just before calling this. However, a later commit will swap
these and I don't want to think of another name in the mean time.

Previous CLs changed the representation of the non-heap type bitmaps
to be 1-bit bitmaps (pointer or not). Before this CL, the heap bitmap
stored a 2-bit type for each word and a mark bit and checkmark bit
for the first word of the object. (There used to be additional per-word bits.)
Reduce heap bitmap to 2-bit, with 1 dedicated to pointer or not,
and the other used for mark, checkmark, and "keep scanning forward
to find pointers in this object." See comments for details.
This CL replaces heapBitsSetType with very slow but obviously correct code.
A followup CL will optimize it. (Spoiler: the new code is faster than Go 1.4 was.)
