The Go HTTP server doesn't use Response.Write, but others do,

Go's had pretty decent HTTP Trailer support for a long time, but
the docs have been largely non-existent. Fix that.

In the process, re-learn the Trailer code, clean some stuff
up, add some error checks, remove some TODOs, fix a minor bug
or two, and add tests.

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.

On Plan 9 gotraceback calls getenv calls malloc, and we gotraceback
on every call to gentraceback, which happens during garbage collection.
Honestly I don't even know how this works on Plan 9.
I suspect it does not, and that we are getting by because
no one has tried to run with $GOTRACEBACK set at all.

This will speed up all the other systems by epsilon, since they
won't call getenv and atoi repeatedly.

Now that we have a constant-time P-256 implementation, it's worth
paying more attention elsewhere.

The inversion of k in (EC)DSA was using Euclid's algorithm which isn't
constant-time. This change switches to Fermat's algorithm, which is
much better. However, it's important to note that math/big itself isn't
constant time and is using a 4-bit window for exponentiation with
variable memory access patterns.

(Since math/big depends quite deeply on its values being in minimal (as
opposed to fixed-length) represetation, perhaps crypto/elliptic should
grow a constant-time implementation of exponentiation in the scalar
field.)
