There are changes we know we want to make, but not before Go 1.3
Add a version number so that we can make them more easily later.

Currently Pool can cache up to 15 elements per P, and these elements are not accesible to other Ps.
If a Pool caches large objects, say 2MB, and GOMAXPROCS is set to a large value, say 32,
then the Pool can waste up to 960MB.
The new caching policy caches at most 1 per-P element, the rest is shared between Ps.

Get/Put performance is unchanged. Nested Get/Put performance is 57% worse.
However, overall scalability of nested Get/Put is significantly improved,
so the new policy starts winning under contention.

Now that nm, addr2line, and objdump have been rewritten in Go,
cmd/prof is the only thing keeping us from deleting libmach.

Update cmd/dist not to build the C version.
Update cmd/go to install the Go version to the tool directory.

Update #7452

This is the basic logic needed for objdump, and it works well enough
to support the pprof list and weblist commands. A real disassembler
needs to be added in order to support the pprof disasm command
and the per-line assembly displays in weblist. That's still to come.

Probably objdump will move to go.tools when the disassembler
is added, but it can stay here for now.

What was happening on Issue 7010 was handler intentionally took 30
milliseconds and the proxy's client timeout was 35 milliseconds. Then it
slammed the proxy with a bunch of requests.

Sometimes the server would be too slow to respond in its 5 millisecond
window and the client code would cancel the request, force-closing the
persistConn.  If this came at the right time, the server's reply was
already in flight, and one of the goroutines would report:

Unsolicited response received on idle HTTP channel starting with "H"; err=<nil>

... rightfully scaring the user.

But the error was already handled and returned to the user, and this
connection knows it's been shut down. So look at the closed flag after
acquiring the same mutex guarding another field we were checking, and
don't complain if it's a known shutdown.

Also move closed down below the mutex which guards it.

Fixes #7010

Add test for multipart form requests with an invalid content-type to ensure
ErrNotMultipart is returned.

Change ParseMultipartForm to return ErrNotMultipart when it is returned by multipartReader.

Modify test for empty multipart request handling to use POST so that the body is checked.

Fixes #6334.

There is a race condition that causes spurious wakeup from Wait
in the following case:

 G1: decrement wg.counter, observe the counter is now 0
     (should unblock goroutines queued *at this moment*)
 G2: increment wg.counter
 G2: call Wait() to add itself to the wait queue
 G1: acquire wg.m, unblock all waiting goroutines

In the last step G2 is spuriously woken up by G1.

In a typical HTTP request, the client writes the request, and
then the server replies. Go's HTTP client code (Transport) has
two goroutines per connection: one writing, and one reading. A
third goroutine (the one initiating the HTTP request)
coordinates with those two.

Because most HTTP requests are done when the server replies,
the Go code has always handled connection reuse purely in the
readLoop goroutine.

But if a client is writing a large request and the server
replies before it's consumed the entire request (e.g. it
replied with a 403 Forbidden and had no use for the body), it
was possible for Go to re-select that connection for a
subsequent request before we were done writing the first. That
wasn't actually a data race; the second HTTP request would
just get enqueued to write its request on the writeLoop. But
because the previous writeLoop didn't finish writing (and
might not ever), that connection is in a weird state. We
really just don't want to get into a state where we're
re-using a connection when the server spoke out of turn.

This CL changes the readLoop goroutine to verify that the
writeLoop finished before returning the connection.

In the process, it also fixes a potential goroutine leak where
a connection could close but the recycling logic could be
blocked forever waiting for the client to read to EOF or
error. Now it also selects on the persistConn's close channel,
and the closer of that is no longer the readLoop (which was
dead locking in some cases before). It's now closed at the
same place the underlying net.Conn is closed. This likely fixes
or helps Issue 7620.

Also addressed some small cosmetic things in the process.

If you pass ns = 100,000 to this function, timediv will
return ms = 0. tsemacquire in /sys/src/9/port/sysproc.c
will return immediately when ms == 0 and the semaphore
cannot be acquired immediately - it doesn't sleep - so
notetsleep will spin, chewing cpu and repeatedly reading
the time, until the 100us have passed.

Thanks to the time reads it won't take too many iterations,
but whatever we are waiting for does not get a chance to
run. Eventually the notetsleep spin loop returns and we
end up in the stoptheworld spin loop - actually a sleep
loop but we're not doing a good job of sleeping.

After 100ms or so of this, the kernel says enough and
schedules a different thread. That thread manages to do
whatever we're waiting for, and the spinning in the other
thread stops. If tsemacquire had actually slept, this
would have happened much quicker.

Many thanks to Russ Cox for help debugging.
