I noticed that this one benchmark in particular was very
noisy.  Looking into it, I saw that the table was wrong
and inconsistent with the lines above and below.

When searching for an allocated bit, flushptrbuf would search
backward in the bitmap word containing the bit of pointer
being looked-up before searching the span.  This extra check
was not replicated in markonly which, instead, after not
finding an allocated bit for a pointer would directly look in
the span.

Using statistics generated from godoc, before this change span
lookups were, on average, more common than word lookups.  It
was common for markonly to consult spans for one third of its
pointer lookups.  With this change in place, what were
previously span lookups are overwhelmingly become by the word
lookups making the total number of span lookups a relatively
small fraction of the whole.

This change also introduces some statistics gathering about
lookups guarded by the CollectStats enum.

Types in function scope can have methods on them if they embed another type, but we didn't make the name unique, meaning that 2 identically named types in different functions would conflict with eachother.

The compiler computes initialization order by finding
a spanning tree between a package's global variables.
But it does so by walking both variables and functions
and stops detecting cycles between variables when they
mix with a cycle of mutually recursive functions.

Before this fix, it was always an error to use the Close method on the
io.WriteCloser obtained from Cmd.StdinPipe, as it would race with the
Close performed by Cmd.Wait.

The method is simple: the parser just parses

        {{if A}}a{{else if B}}b{{end}}

to the same tree that would be produced by

        {{if A}}a{{else}}{{if B}}b{{end}}{{end}}

Thus no changes are required in text/template itself
or in html/template, only in text/template/parse.

The previous wording, though accurate, was hard to parse.
In particular, it was tempting to interpret "the method"
as referring to "the function f" instead of "Do", and
required effort to find the correct antecedent for
"this receiver".
