[release-branch.go1.5] runtime: handle sysReserve returning a pointer below the arena
In mheap.sysAlloc, if an allocation at arena_used would exceed arena_end (but wouldn't yet push us past arena_start+_MaxArean32), it trie to extend the arena reservation by another 256 MB. It extends the arena by calling sysReserve, which, on 32-bit, calls mmap without MAP_FIXED, which means the address is just a hint and the kernel can put the mapping wherever it wants. In particular, mmap may choose an address below arena_start (the kernel also chose arena_start, so there could be lots of space below it). Currently, we don't detect this case and, if it happens, mheap.sysAlloc will corrupt arena_end and arena_used then return the low pointer to mheap.grow, which will crash when it attempts to index in to h_spans with an underflowed index. Fix this by checking not only that that p+p_size isn't too high, but that p isn't too low. Fixes #13143.
