A bufio.Writer.Flush marks the usual end of a Writer's
life. Recycle its internal buffer on those explicit flushes,
but not on normal, as-needed internal flushes.

This isn't clearly a bug on Go's part, but it triggers a bug in Firefox
which means that crypto/tls and net/http cannot be wired up together
unless NextProtos includes "http/1.1". When net/http sets up the
tls.Config, it does this and so works fine. But anyone setting up the
tls.Config themselves will hit the Firefox bug.

Failures caused by errors like invalid signatures or missing hash
functions cause rather generic, unhelpful error messages because no
trust chain can be constructed: "x509: certificate signed by unknown
authority."

With this change, authority errors may contain the reason why an
arbitary candidate step in the chain was rejected. For example, in the
event of a missing hash function the error looks like:

x509: certificate signed by unknown authority (possibly because of
"crypto/x509: cannot verify signature: algorithm unimplemented" while
trying to verify candidate authority certificate 'Thawte SGC CA')

REP instructions have a high startup cost, so we handle small
sizes with some straightline code.  The REP MOVSx instructions
are really fast for large sizes.  The cutover is approximately
1K.  We implement up to 128/256 because that is the maximum
SSE register load (loading all data into registers before any
stores lets us ignore copy direction).
