This CL rearranges the call order for raw networking primitives like
the following;

- For dialers that open active connections, pollDesc.Init will be
  called before syscall.Connect.

- For stream listeners that open passive stream connections,
  pollDesc.Init will be called just after syscall.Listen.

- For datagram listeners that open datagram connections,
  pollDesc.Init will be called just after syscall.Bind.

This is in preparation for runtime-integrated network pollster for BSD
variants.

I tried to make it absolutely correct but there are too many
conflicting definitions for the official list of time zones.
Since when we're parsing we know when to expect
a time zone and we know what they look like if not exactly
what the definitive set is, we compromise. We accept any
three-character sequence of upper case letters, possibly
followed by a capital T (all four-letter zones end in T).

There is one crazy special case (ChST) and the possibility
of a signed hour offset for GMT.

The baseline architecture had been left to the GCC configured
default which can be more accomodating than the rest of the Go
toolchain.  This prevented instructions used by the 5g compiler,
like BLX, from being used in GCC compiled assembler code.

Originally the requirement was f(x) where f's argument is
exactly x's type.

CL 11858043 relaxed the requirement in a non-standard
way: f's argument must be exactly x's type or interface{}.

If we're going to relax the requirement, it should be done
in a way consistent with the rest of Go. This CL allows f's
argument to have any type for which x is assignable;
that's the same requirement the compiler would impose
if compiling f(x) directly.

Fixes #5368.
