At last minute before 1.3 we relaxed SetFinalizer to avoid
crashes when you pass the result of a global alloc to it.
This avoids the crash but makes SetFinalizer a bit too relaxed.

Document that the finalizer of a global allocation may not run.

Tighten the SetFinalizer check to ignore a global allocation but
not ignore everything else.

Fixes #7656.

Apply a similar transformation to %+v that we did to %#v, making it
a top-level setting separate from the + flag itself. This fixes the
appearance of flags in Formatters and cleans up the code too,
probably making it a little faster.

This change was necessary on the dev.garbage branch
to keep the garbage collector from seeing pointers into
invalid heap areas.

On this default (Go 1.4) branch, the change removes
some possibility for memory leaks.

The %#v verb is special: it says all values below need to print as %#v.
However, for some situations the # flag has other meanings and this
causes some issues, particularly in how Formatters work. Since %#v
dominates all formatting, translate it into actual state of the formatter
and decouple it from the # flag itself within the calculations (although
it must be restored when methods are doing the work.)
The result is cleaner code and correct handling of # for Formatters.
TODO: Apply the same thinking to the + flag in a followup CL.

Also, the wasString return value in handleMethods is always false,
so eliminate it.

This is a minor cleanup following CL 142360043:

The internal parse and format functions in both packages
were almost identical - made them identical by adding an
extra parameter, and documented them as identical.

Eventually we should find a nice way to factor these functions
out, but we cannot do this now while in prep for 1.4.

No functionality change.
