Russ Cox 4dffdd797b math/big: replace addMulVVW with addMulVVWW
addMulVVW is an unnecessarily special case.
All other assembly routines taking []Word (V as in vector) arguments
take separate source and destination. For example:

	addVV: z = x+y
	mulAddVWW: z = x*m+a

addMulVVW uses the z parameter as both destination and source:

	addMulVVW: z = z+x*m

Even looking at the signatures is confusing: all the VV routines take
two input vectors x and y, but addMulVVW takes only x: where is y?
(The answer is that the two inputs are z and x.)

It would be nice to fix this, both for understandability and regularity,
and to simplify a future assembly generator.

We cannot remove or redefine addMulVVW, because it has been used
in linknames. Instead, the CL adds a new final addend argument ‘a’
like in mulAddVWW, making the natural name addMulVVWW
(two input vectors, two input words):

	addMulVVWW: z = x+y*m+a

This CL updates all the assembly implementations to rename the
inputs z, x, y -> x, y, m, and then introduces a separate destination z.
