The biggest change is that each test is now responsible for managing
the starting and stopping of its parallel subtests.

The "Main" test could be run as a tRunner as well. This shows that
the introduction of subtests is merely a generalization of and

This is intended to help debug compiler problems that pop
up in the bootstrap phase of make.bash.  GO_GCFLAGS does not
normally apply there.  Options-for-all phases is intended
to allow crude tracing (and full timing) by turning on timing
for all phases, not just one.

Phase names can also be specified using a regular expression,
for example
BOOT_GO_GCFLAGS=-d='ssa/~^.*scc$/off' \
GO_GCFLAGS='-d=ssa/~^.*scc$/off' ./make.bash

I just added this because it was the fastest way to get
me to a place where I could easily debug the compiler.

For every string constant the compiler was creating 2 Sym's and 2

When compiling x/tools/go/types, this yields about a 15% reduction in
the number of calls to newname and a 3% reduction in the total number of
Node objects.  Unfortunately I couldn't see any change in compile time,

This should probably be considered "experimental" at this stage, but
what it needs is feedback from adventurous adopters.  I think the data
structure used for describing escape reasons might be extendable to
allow a cleanup of the underlying algorithms, which suffers from
insufficiently separated concerns (the graph does not deal well with
escape level adjustments, so it is augmented by a second custom-walk
portion of the "flood" phase. It would be better to put it all,
including level adjustments, in a single graph structure, and then
simply flood the graph.

Tweaked to avoid allocations in the no-logging case.

Modified run.go to ignore lines with leading "#" in the output (since
it can never match a line), and in -update_errors to ignore leading
tabs in output lines and to normalize embedded filenames.

Currently requires -m -m because otherwise the noise/update
burden for the other escape tests is considerable.

There is a partial test.  Existing escape analysis tests seem to
cover all except the panic case and what looks like it might be
unreachable code in escape analysis.

Between the enumeration of fdsToClose in the parent and the
closing of fds in the child, it's possible for a file to be
closed in another thread. If that file descriptor is reused
when opening the child-parent status pipe, it will be closed
prematurely in the child and the forkExec gets out of sync.
This has been observed to cause failures in builder tests
when the link step of a build is started before the compile
step has run, with "file does not exist" messages as the
visible symptom.

The simple workaround is to check against closing the pipe.
A more comprehensive solution would be to rewrite the fd
closing code to avoid races, along the lines of the long
ago proposed https://golang.org/cl/57890043 - but meanwhile
this correction will prevent some builder failures.

Keep track of how many uses each Value has.  Each appearance in
Value.Args and in Block.Control counts once.

The number of uses of a value is generically useful to
constrain rewrite rules.  For instance, we might want to
prevent merging index operations into loads if the same
index expression is used lots of times.

But I have one use in particular for which the use count is required.
We must make sure we don't combine ops with loads if the load has
more than one use.  Otherwise, we may split a single load
into multiple loads and that breaks perceived behavior in
the presence of races.  In particular, the load of m.state
in sync/mutex.go:Lock can't be done twice.  (I have a separate
CL which triggers the mutex failure.  This CL has a test which
demonstrates a similar failure.)

When building shared libraries, all symbols on Allsym are marked reachable.
What I didn't realize was that this includes the ".dup" symbols created when
"dupok" symbols are read from multiple package files. This breaks now because
deadcode makes some assumptions that fail for these ".dup" symbols, but in any
case was a bad idea -- I suspect this change makes libstd.so a bunch smaller,
but creating it was broken before this CL so I can't be sure.

This change simply stops adding these symbols to Allsym, which might make some
of the many iterations over Allsym the linker does a touch quicker, although
that's not the motivation here.

Add a test that no symbols called ".dup" makes it into the runtime shared
library.

Receiver parameters generally aren't relevant to the function
signature type. In particular:

  1. When checking whether a type's method implements an interface's
     method, we specifically want to ignore the receiver parameters,
     because they'll be different.

  2. When checking interface type equality, interface methods always
     use the same "fakethis" *struct{} type as their receiver.

  3. Finally, method expressions and method values degenerate into
     receiver-less function types.

The only case where we care about receiver types matching is in
addmethod, which is easily handled by adding an extra Eqtype check of
the receiver parameters. Also, added a test for this, since
(surprisingly) there weren't any.

As precedence, go/types.Identical ignores receiver parameters when
comparing go/types.Signature values.

Notably, this allows us to slightly simplify the "implements"
function, which is used for checking whether type/interface t
implements interface iface. Currently, cmd/compile actually works
around Eqtype's receiver parameter checking by creating new throwaway
TFUNC Types without the receiver parameter.

(Worse, the compiler currently only provides APIs to build TFUNC Types
from Nod syntax trees, so building those throwaway types also involves
first building throwaway syntax trees.)
