There's only one Go object file per package now,
so there's no need to parse the metadata and merge
metadata from multiple files.  Just save the original
and use it as __.PKGDEF verbatim.

This avoids a crash when using cgo where glibc's malloc thinks
that it can use some of the memory following the symbol table.
This fails because the symbol table is mapped read-only, which
affects the whole page.

Although technically incorrect, we want this in order to parse X.509
certificates where a wildcard hostname ("*.example.com") has been put
into a PrintableString.

* Code for assignment, conversions now mirrors spec.
* Changed some snprint -> smprint.
* Renamed runtime functions to separate
  interface conversions from type assertions:
  convT2I, assertI2T, etc.
* Correct checking of \U sequences.

(caused certain files to not be idempotent under gofmt)

- corrected golden files for go/printer
- slightly simplified some code in nodes.go (no impact on formatting)
- these changes have no impact on gofmt output of .go files under src, misc

fallthrough statement considered harmful!

Specifically:
- introduced notion of "underlying type"
- removed notion of type compatibility
- consolidated rules about assignment compatibility in
  assignment compatibility section
- be consistent with specyfing that nil is the value
  for uninitialized variables that can be nil (this
  was not specified clearly for pointers, functions, interfaces)
- added/fixed various related links throughout
- clarify language on conversions

Time (us) to draw a 200x200 src onto an image.RGBA dst with the Over
operator. Each case was measured three separate times, and the sorted
times are reported.

Fill case (where src is an image.ColorImage):
Before:
7438, 7511, 7526
After:
3073, 3087, 3102

Copy case (where src is an image.RGBA):
Before:
9506, 9510, 9563
After:
5262, 5300, 5344
