The code generated for a slice x[i:j] or x[i:j:k] computes the entire
new slice (base, len, cap) and then uses it as the evaluation of the
slice expression.

If the slice is part of an update x = x[i:j] or x = x[i:j:k], there are
opportunities to avoid computing some of these fields.

For x = x[0:i], we know that only the len is changing;
base can be ignored completely, and cap can be left unmodified.

For x = x[0:i:j], we know that only len and cap are changing;
base can be ignored completely.

For x = x[i:i], we know that the resulting cap is zero, and we don't
adjust the base during a slice producing a zero-cap result,
so again base can be ignored completely.

No write to base, no write barrier.

The old slice code was trying to work at a Go syntax level, mainly
because that was how you wrote code just once instead of once
per architecture. Now the compiler is factored a bit better and we
can implement slice during code generation but still have one copy
of the code. So the new code is working at that lower level.
(It must, to update only parts of the result.)

One important use case is a pipeline computation that pass values
from one Goroutine to the next and then exits or is placed in a
wait state. If GOMAXPROCS > 1 a Goroutine running on P1 will enable
another Goroutine and then immediately make P1 available to execute
it. We need to prevent other Ps from stealing the G that P1 is about
to execute. Otherwise the Gs can thrash between Ps causing unneeded
synchronization and slowing down throughput.

Fix this by changing the stealing logic so that when a P attempts to
steal the only G on some other P's run queue, it will pause
momentarily to allow the victim P to schedule the G.

As part of optimizing stealing we also use a per P victim queue
move stolen gs. This eliminates the zeroing of a stack local victim
queue which turned out to be expensive.

This CL is a necessary but not sufficient prerequisite to changing
the default value of GOMAXPROCS to something > 1 which is another
CL/discussion.

For highly serialized programs, such as GoroutineRing below this can
make a large difference. For larger and more parallel programs such
as the x/benchmarks there is no noticeable detriment.

FileConn and FilePacketConn APIs accept user-configured socket
descriptors to make them work together with runtime-integrated network
poller, but there's a limitation. The APIs reject protocol sockets that

syscall packages to look after all platform, feature-specific sockets.

This change allows various platform, feature-specific socket descriptors

Running these tests on the system stack is problematic because they
allocate Ps, which are large enough to overflow the system stack if
they are stack-allocated. It used to be necessary to run these tests
on the system stack because they were written in C, but since this is
no longer the case, we can fix this problem by simply not running the
tests on the system stack.

This also means we no longer need the hack in one of these tests that
forces the allocated Ps to escape to the heap, so eliminate that as
well.

The code generated for x = append(x, v) is roughly:

	t := x
	if len(t)+1 > cap(t) {
		t = grow(t)
	}
	t[len(t)] = v
	len(t)++
	x = t

We used to generate this code as Go pseudocode during walk.
Generate it instead as actual instructions during gen.

Doing so lets us apply a few optimizations. The most important
is that when, as in the above example, the source slice and the
destination slice are the same, the code can instead do:

	t := x
	if len(t)+1 > cap(t) {
		t = grow(t)
		x = {base(t), len(t)+1, cap(t)}
	} else {
		len(x)++
	}
	t[len(t)] = v

That is, in the fast path that does not reallocate the array,
only the updated length needs to be written back to x,
not the array pointer and not the capacity. This is more like
what you'd write by hand in C. It's faster in general, since
the fast path elides two of the three stores, but it's especially
faster when the form of x is such that the base pointer write
would turn into a write barrier. No write, no barrier.

When running the client header timeout test, there is a race between
us timing out and waiting on the remaining requests to be serviced. If
the client times out before the server blocks on the channel in the
handler, we will be simultaneously adding to a waitgroup with the
value 0 and waiting on it when we call TestServer.Close().

This is largely a theoretical race. We have to time out before we
enter the handler and the only reason we would time out if we're
blocked on the channel. Nevertheless, make the race detector happy
by turning the close into a channel send. This turns the defer call
into a synchronization point and we can be sure that we've entered
the handler before we close the server.

The current implementation of typedmemmove walks the ptrmask
in the type to find out where pointers are. This led to turning off
GC programs for the Go 1.5 dev cycle, so that there would always
be a ptrmask. Instead of also interpreting the GC programs,
interpret the heap bitmap, which we know must be available and
up to date. (There is no point to write barriers when writing outside
the heap.)

This CL is only about correctness. The next CL will optimize the code.

We want typedmemmove to use the heap bitmap to determine
where pointers are, instead of reinterpreting the type information.
The heap bitmap is simpler to access.

In general, typedmemmove will need to be able to look up the bits
for any word and find valid pointer information, so fill even after the
dead marker. Not filling after the dead marker was an optimization
I introduced only a few days ago, when reintroducing the dead marker
code. At the time I said it probably wouldn't last, and it didn't.

The runtime deals with 1-bit pointer bitmaps and 2-bit heap bitmaps
that have entries for both pointers and mark bits.

Each byte in a 1-bit pointer bitmap looks like pppppppp (all pointer bits).
Each byte in a 2-bit heap bitmap looks like mpmpmpmp (mark, pointer, ...).
This means that when converting from 1-bit to 2-bit, as we do
during malloc, we have to pick up 4 bits in pppp form and use
shifts to create the mpmpmpmp form.

This CL changes the 2-bit heap bitmap form to mmmmpppp,
so that 4 bits picked up in 1-bit form can be used directly in
the low bits of the heap bitmap byte, without expansion.
This simplifies the code, and it also happens to be faster.
