    cmd/compile: specialize map creation for small hint sizes · fbfc2031
    Martin Möhrmann authored
    Handle make(map[any]any) and make(map[any]any, hint) where
    hint <= BUCKETSIZE special to allow for faster map initialization
    and to improve binary size by using runtime calls with fewer arguments.
    
    Given hint is smaller or equal to BUCKETSIZE in which case
    overLoadFactor(hint, 0)  is false and no buckets would be allocated by makemap:
    * If hmap needs to be allocated on the stack then only hmap's hash0
      field needs to be initialized and no call to makemap is needed.
    * If hmap needs to be allocated on the heap then a new special
      makehmap function will allocate hmap and intialize hmap's
      hash0 field.
    
    Reduces size of the godoc by ~36kb.
