Compiler changes:
* Change map assignment to use mapassign and assign value directly.
* Change string iteration to use decoderune, faster for ASCII strings.
* Change makeslice to take int, and use makeslice64 for larger values.
* Add new noverflow field to hmap struct used for maps.
Unresolved problems, to be fixed later:
* Commented out test in go/types/sizes_test.go that doesn't compile.
* Commented out reflect.TestStructOf test for padding after zero-sized field.

When using cgo -gccgo calls to C.GoString, C.GoStringN, and C.GoBytes
are turned into calls to __go_byte_array_to_string and
__go_string_to_byte_array. Those functions were removed when the string
code was copied from Go 1.7, but we still need them for cgo. While cgo
should be updated, old versions will exist for some time.

Add compiler support for turning concatenating strings into a call to
a runtime function that takes the appropriate number of arguments.
Rename some local variables in mgc0.c to avoid macros that the new
rune.go causes to appear in runtime.inc.

This upgrades all of libgo other than the runtime package to
the Go 1.4 release. In Go 1.4 much of the runtime was
rewritten into Go. Merging that code will take more time and
will not change the API, so I'm putting it off for now.
There are a few runtime changes anyhow, to accomodate other
packages that rely on minor modifications to the runtime
support.
The compiler changes slightly to add a one-bit flag to each
type descriptor kind that is stored directly in an interface,
which for gccgo is currently only pointer types. Another
one-bit flag (gcprog) is reserved because it is used by the gc
compiler, but gccgo does not currently use it.
There is another error check in the compiler since I ran
across it during testing.
gotools/:
* Makefile.am (go_cmd_go_files): Sort entries. Add generate.go.
* Makefile.in: Rebuild.
