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.

cmd: Fix dependencies for 'go get' with gccgo
Problem described in GCC BZ 65462.
Generate the list of the standard GO package names based on what was built into libgo in the libgo Makefile.
Change the var name from reqPkgSrc to reqStdPkgSrc to clarify it only affects standard GO packages.
Skip the attempted loading of a package only if it is a standard GO package and the flag is set indicating its source is not required to be available.
This requires a corresponding change to gotools to build and link in the new file containing the list of standard GO package names that was generated by the libgo Makefile.

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.
