runtime: eliminate write barrier from adjustpointers

Currently adjustpointers invokes a write barrier for every stack slot
it updates. This is safe---the write barrier always does nothing
because the new value is never a heap pointer---but it's unnecessary
overhead in performance and complexity.

Fix this by rewriting adjustpointers to work with *uintptrs instead of
*unsafe.Pointers. As an added bonus, this makes the code cleaner.
