The actual stack unwind code is still in C, but the rest of the code,
notably all the memory allocation, is now in Go. The names are changed
to the names used in the Go 1.7 runtime, but the code is necessarily
somewhat different.
The __go_makefunc_can_recover function is dropped, as the uses of it
were removed in https://golang.org/cl/198770044.

I started to copy the Go 1.7 interface code, but the gc and gccgo
representations of interfaces are too different. So instead I rewrote
the gccgo interface code from C to Go. The code is largely the same as
it was, but the names are more like those used in the gc runtime.
I also copied over the string comparison functions, and tweaked the
compiler to use eqstring when comparing strings for equality.

Change the compiler to use the new routines. Drop the separation of
small and large values when sending on a channel. Allocate the select
struct on the stack. Remove the old C implementation of channels. Adjust
the garbage collector for the new data structure.
Bring in part of the tracing code, enough for the channel code to call.
Bump the permitted number of allocations in one of the tests in
context_test.go. The difference is that now receiving from a channel
allocates a sudog, which the C code used to simply put on the
stack. This will be somewhat better when we port proc.go.

Remove the old locking code written in C.
Add a shell script mkrsysinfo.sh to generate the runtime_sysinfo.go
file, so that we can get Go copies of the system time structures and
other types.
Tweak the compiler so that when compiling the runtime package the
address operator does not cause local variables to escape. When the gc
compiler compiles the runtime, an escaping local variable is treated as
an error. We should implement that, instead of this change, when escape
analysis is turned on.
Tweak the compiler so that the generated C header does not include names
that start with an underscore followed by a non-upper-case letter,
except for the special cases of _defer and _panic. Otherwise we
translate C types to Go in runtime_sysinfo.go and then generate those Go
types back as C types in runtime.inc, which is useless and painful for
the C code.
Change entersyscall and friends to take a dummy argument, as the gc
versions do, to simplify calls from the shared code.

Use the new -fgo-c-header option to build a header file for the Go
runtime code in libgo/go/runtime, and use the new header file in the C
runtime code in libgo/runtime. This will ensure that the Go code and C
code share the same data structures as we convert the runtime from C to
Go.
The new file libgo/go/runtime/runtime2.go is copied from the Go 1.7
release, and then edited to remove unnecessary data structures and
modify others for use with libgo.
The new file libgo/go/runtime/mcache.go is an initial version of the
same files in the Go 1.7 release, and will be replaced by the Go 1.7
file when we convert to the new memory allocator.
The new file libgo/go/runtime/type.go describes the gccgo version of the
reflection data structures, and replaces the Go 1.7 runtime file which
describes the gc version of those structures.
Using the new header file means changing a number of struct fields to
use Go naming conventions (that is, no underscores) and to rename
constants to have a leading underscore so that they are not exported
from the Go package. These names were updated in the C code.
The C code was also changed to drop the thread-local variable m, as was
done some time ago in the gc sources. Now the m field is always
accessed using g->m, where g is the single remaining thread-local
variable. This in turn required some adjustments to set g->m correctly
in all cases.
Also pass the new -fgo-compiling-runtime option when compiling the
runtime package, although that option doesn't do anything yet.

These changes permit using the go tool from the upcoming Go
1.5 release with -buildmode=c-archive to build gccgo code into
an archive file that can be linked with a C program.
