spec: clarify section on package initialization
- split description of package initialization and program execution - better grouping of concerns in section on package initialization - more explicit definition of what constitues a dependency - removed language about constant dependencies - they are computed at compile-time and not initialized at run-time - clarified that independent variables are initialized in declaration order (rather than reference order) Note that the last clarification is what distinguishes gc and gccgo at the moment: gc uses reference order (i.e., order in which variables are referenced in initialization expressions), while gccgo uses declaration order for independent variables. Not a language change. But adopting this CL will clarify what constitutes a dependency. Fixes #6703.
