runtime/cgo: make cgo work with openbsd ABI changes
OpenBSD 6.0 (due out November 2016) will support PT_TLS, which will allow for the OpenBSD cgo pthread_create() workaround to be removed. However, in order for Go to continue working on supported OpenBSD releases (the current release and the previous release - 5.9 and 6.0, once 6.0 is released), we cannot enable PT_TLS immediately. Instead, adjust the existing code so that it works with the previous TCB allocation and the new TIB allocation. This allows the same Go runtime to work on 5.8, 5.9 and later 6.0. Once OpenBSD 5.9 is no longer supported (May 2017, when 6.1 is released), PT_TLS can be enabled and the additional cgo runtime code removed.
