    cmd/cgo: special case C ptr types to use uintptr · b868616b
    Keith Randall authored
    Some C types are declared as pointers, but C code
    stores non-pointers in them.  When the Go garbage
    collector sees such a pointer, it gets unhappy.
    
    Instead, for these types represent them on the Go
    side with uintptr.
    
    We need this change to handle Apple's CoreFoundation
    CF*Ref types. Users of these types might need to
    update their code like we do in root_cgo_darwin.go.
    The only change that is required under normal
    circumstances is converting some nils to 0.
    A go fix module is provided to help.
    
    Fixes #21897
