Ian Lance Taylor f8d9fa9e80 libgo, compiler: Upgrade libgo to Go 1.4, except for runtime.
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.

// moveToFrontDecoder implements a move-to-front list. Such a list is an
// efficient way to transform a string with repeating elements into one with
// many small valued numbers, which is suitable for entropy encoding. It works
// by starting with an initial list of symbols and references symbols by their
// index into that list. When a symbol is referenced, it's moved to the front
// of the list. Thus, a repeated symbol ends up being encoded with many zeros,
// as the symbol will be at the front of the list after the first access.
