cmd/compile: re-enable in-place append optimization

CL 21891 was too clever in its attempts to avoid spills.
Storing newlen too early caused uses of append in the runtime
itself to receive an inconsistent view of a slice,
leading to corruption.

This CL makes the generate code much more similar to
the old backend. It spills more than before,
but those spills have been contained to the grow path.
It recalculates newlen unnecessarily on the fast path,
but that's measurably cheaper than spilling it.

CL 21891 caused runtime failures in 6 of 2000 runs
of net/http and crypto/x509 in my test setup.
This CL has gone 6000 runs without a failure.


Benchmarks going from master to this CL:

name                         old time/op  new time/op  delta
AppendInPlace/NoGrow/Byte-8   439ns ± 2%   436ns ± 2%  -0.72%  (p=0.001 n=28+27)

However, for the large no-grow cases, there is still more work to be done.
Going from this CL to the non-SSA backend:
