    cmd/compile: avoid duplicate GC bitmap symbols · 15265ec4
    Austin Clements authored
    Currently, liveness produces a distinct obj.LSym for each GC bitmap
    for each function. These are then named by content hash and only
    ultimately deduplicated by WriteObjFile.
    
    For various reasons (see next commit), we want to remove this
    deduplication behavior from WriteObjFile. Furthermore, it's
    inefficient to produce these duplicate symbols in the first place.
    
    GC bitmaps are the only source of duplicate symbols in the compiler.
    This commit eliminates these duplicate symbols by declaring them in
    the Ctxt symbol hash just like every other obj.LSym. As a result, all
    GC bitmaps with the same content now refer to the same obj.LSym.
    
    The next commit will remove deduplication from WriteObjFile.
    
    For #27539.
