Add a new, simple interface for scanning (probably textual) data,
based on a new type called Scanner. It does its own internal buffering,
so should be plausibly efficient even without injecting a bufio.Reader.
The format of the input is defined by a "split function", by default
splitting into lines. Other implemented split functions include single
bytes, single runes, and space-separated words.

Here's the loop to scan stdin as a file of lines:

        s := bufio.NewScanner(os.Stdin)
        for s.Scan() {
                fmt.Printf("%s\n", s.Bytes())
        }
        if s.Err() != nil {
                log.Fatal(s.Err())
        }

While we're dealing with spaces, define what space means to strings.Fields.

Fixes #4802.

On Windows, directory names in PATH can be fully or partially quoted
in double quotes ('"'), but the path names as used by most APIs must
be unquoted. In addition, quoted names can contain the semicolon
(';') character, which is otherwise used as ListSeparator.

This CL changes SplitList in path/filepath and LookPath in os/exec
to only	treat unquoted semicolons as separators, and to unquote the
separated elements.

(In addition, fix harmless test bug I introduced for LookPath on Unix.)

The data file should be opened when a Conn is first
established, rather than waiting for the first Read or
Write.

Upon Close, we now make sure to try to close both, the
ctl as well as data files and set both to nil, even in
the face of errors, instead of returning early.

The Accept call was not setting the remote address
of the connection properly. Now, we read the correct
file.

Make functions that establish Conn use newTCPConn
or newUDPConn.

This avoids ambiguity and makes the diagnostics closer to
those issued by gc, but it is more verbose since it qualifies
intra-package references.

Without extra context---e.g. a 'from *Package' parameter to
Type.String()---we are forced to err on one side or the other.

Also, cosmetic changes to exp/ssa:
- Remove package-qualification workaround in Function.FullName.
- Always set go/types.Package.Path field to the import path,
  since we know the correct path at this point.
- In Function.DumpTo, show variadic '...' and result type info,
  and delete now-redundant "# Type: " line.

Also:
- faster code for example extraction
- simplify handling of command documentation:
  all "main" packages are treated as commands
- various minor cleanups along the way

For commands written in Go, any doc.go file containing
documentation must now be part of package main (rather
then package documentation), otherwise the documentation
won't show up in godoc (it will still build, though).

For commands written in C, documentation may still be
in doc.go files defining package documentation, but the
recommended way is to explicitly ignore those files with
a +build ignore constraint to define package main.
