The logic for keeping arguments alive for calls to //go:uintptrescapes
functions was only applying to direct function calls. This CL changes
it to also apply to direct method calls, which should address most
uses of Proc.Call and LazyProc.Call.

It's still an open question (#34684) whether other call forms (e.g.,
method expressions, or indirect calls via function values, method
values, or interfaces).

Fixes #34474.

to be used in conjunction with -buildmode=c-archive to produce an ELF
archive (.a) file that can be linked with libFuzzer. See #14565 for
example usage.

The coverage generates a unique 8-bit counter for each basic block in
the original source code, and emits an increment operation. These
counters are then collected into the __libfuzzer_extra_counters ELF
section for use by libFuzzer.

This change makes it so that the GC pacer's trigger ratio can never fall
below 0.6. Upcoming changes to the allocator make it significantly more
scalable and thus much faster in certain cases, creating a large gap
between the performance of allocation and scanning. The consequence of
this is that the trigger ratio can drop very low (0.07 was observed) in
order to drop GC utilization. A low trigger ratio like this results in a
high amount of black allocations, which causes the live heap to appear
larger, and thus the heap, and RSS, grows to a much higher stable point.

This change alleviates the problem by placing a lower bound on the
trigger ratio. The expected (and confirmed) effect of this is that
utilization in certain scenarios will no longer converge to the expected
25%, and may go higher. As a result of this artificially high trigger
ratio, more time will also be spent doing GC assists compared to
dedicated mark workers, since the GC will be on for an artifically short
fraction of time (artificial with respect to the pacer). The biggest
concern of this change is that allocation latency will suffer as a
result, since there will now be more assists. But, upcoming changes to
the allocator reduce the latency enough to outweigh the expected
increase in latency from this change, without the blowup in RSS observed
from the changes to the allocator.

We can probably improve performance further by adding more 'lanes'

When dropping a P, if it has any timers, and if some thread is
sleeping in the netpoller, wake the netpoller to run the P's timers.
This mitigates races between the netpoller deciding how long to sleep
and a new timer being added.

In sysmon, if all P's are idle, check the timers to decide how long to sleep.
This avoids oversleeping if no thread is using the netpoller.
This can happen in particular if some threads use runtime.LockOSThread,
as those threads do not block in the netpoller.

Also, print the number of timers per P for GODEBUG=scheddetail=1.

This CL makes these changes to the hash/maphash API to make it fit a bit
more into the standard library:

 - Move some of the package doc onto type Hash, so that `go doc maphash.Hash` shows it.

 - Instead of having identical AddBytes and Write methods,
   standardize on Write, the usual name for this function.
   Similarly, AddString -> WriteString, AddByte -> WriteByte.

 - Instead of having identical Hash and Sum64 methods,
   standardize on Sum64 (for hash.Hash64). Dropping the "Hash" method
   also helps because Hash is usually reserved to mean the state of a
   hash function (hash.Hash etc), not the hash value itself.

 - Make an uninitialized hash.Hash auto-seed with a random seed.
   It is critical that users not use the same seed for all hash functions
   in their program, at least not accidentally. So the Hash implementation
   must either panic if uninitialized or initialize itself.
   Initializing itself is less work for users and can be done lazily.

 - Now that the zero hash.Hash is useful, drop maphash.New in favor of
   new(maphash.Hash) or simply declaring a maphash.Hash.

 - Add a [0]func()-typed field to the Hash so that Hashes cannot be compared.
   (I considered doing the same for Seed but comparing seeds seems OK.)

 - Drop the integer argument from MakeSeed, to match the original design
   in golang.org/issue/28322. There is no point to giving users control
   over the specific seed bits, since we want the interpretation of those
   bits to be different in every different process. The only thing users
   need is to be able to create a new random seed at each call.
   (Fixes a TODO in MakeSeed's public doc comment.)

This API is new in Go 1.14, so these changes do not violate the compatibility promise.

When we do a successful recover of a panic, we resume normal execution by
returning from the frame that had the deferred call that did the recover (after
executing any remaining deferred calls in that frame).

However, suppose we have called runtime.Goexit and there is a panic during one of the
deferred calls run by the Goexit. Further assume that there is a deferred call in
the frame of the Goexit or a parent frame that does a recover. Then the recovery
process will actually resume normal execution above the Goexit frame and hence
abort the Goexit.  We will not terminate the thread as expected, but continue
running in the frame above the Goexit.

To fix this, we explicitly create a _panic object for a Goexit call. We then
change the "abort" behavior for Goexits, but not panics. After a recovery, if the
top-level panic is actually a Goexit that is marked to be aborted, then we return
to the Goexit defer-processing loop, so that the Goexit is not actually aborted.

Actual code changes are just panic.go, runtime2.go, and funcid.go. Adjusted the
test related to the new Goexit behavior (TestRecoverBeforePanicAfterGoexit) and
added several new tests of aborted panics (whose behavior has not changed).

We couldn't add this test earlier because it requires scheduler, STW,
and stack scanning preemption to all be working.

For #10958, #24543.

This adds signal-based preemption to preemptone.

Since STW and forEachP ultimately use preemptone, this also makes
these work with async preemption.

This also makes freezetheworld more robust so tracebacks from fatal
panics should be far less likely to report "goroutine running on other
thread; stack unavailable".

For #10958, #24543. (This doesn't fix it yet because asynchronous
preemption only works on POSIX platforms on 386 and amd64 right now.)

This adds support for pausing a running G by sending a signal to its
M.

The main complication is that we want to target a G, but can only send
a signal to an M. Hence, the protocol we use is to simply mark the G
for preemption (which we already do) and send the M a "wake up and
look around" signal. The signal checks if it's running a G with a
preemption request and stops it if so in the same way that stack check
preemptions stop Gs. Since the preemption may fail (the G could be
moved or the signal could arrive at an unsafe point), we keep a count
of the number of received preemption signals. This lets stopG detect
if its request failed and should be retried without an explicit
channel back to suspendG.

For #10958, #24543.

This adds support for scanning the stack when a goroutine is stopped
at an async safe point. This is not yet lit up because asyncPreempt is
not yet injected, but prepares us for that.

This works by conservatively scanning the registers dumped in the
frame of asyncPreempt and its parent frame, which was stopped at an
asynchronous safe point.

Conservative scanning works by only marking words that are pointers to
valid, allocated heap objects. One complication is pointers to stack
objects. In this case, we can't determine if the stack object is still
"allocated" or if it was freed by an earlier GC. Hence, we need to
propagate the conservative-ness of scanning stack objects: if all
pointers found to a stack object were found via conservative scanning,
then the stack object itself needs to be scanned conservatively, since
its pointers may point to dead objects.

For #10958, #24543.

This adds a sigctxt.pushCall method that pushes a call at the signaled
site. We'll use this to inject asynchronous preemptions and in some
places we use it to clean up preparePanic.

For the moment this only works on 386 and amd64. We stub it out on
other platforms and will avoid calling the stubbed version.

Currently, the compiler fails to mark any unsafe-points in the initial
instructions of a function as unsafe points. This happens because
unsafe points are encoded as a stack map index of -2 and the compiler
emits PCDATA instructions when there's a change in the stack map
index, but I had set the initial stack map index to -2. The actual
initial PCDATA value assumed by the PCDATA encoder and the runtime is
-1. Hence, if the first instructions had a stack map index of -2, no
PCDATA was emitted, which cause the runtime to assume the index was -1
instead.

This was particularly problematic in the runtime, where the compiler
was supposed to mark only calls as safe-points and everything else as
unsafe-points. Runtime leaf functions, for example, should have been
marked as entirely unsafe-points, but were instead marked entirely as
safe-points.

Fix this by making the PCDATA instruction generator assume the initial
PCDATA value is -1 instead of -2, so it will emit a PCDATA instruction
right away if the first real instruction is an unsafe-point.

This increases the size of the cmd/go binary by 0.02% since we now
emit slightly more PCDATA than before.

For #10958, #24543.

Current implementation of httputil.DumpRequestOut
incorrectly resets the Request.Body prematurely
before Content-Length/Transfer-Encoding detection
in newTransferWriter()

This fix avoids resetting the Request.Body when
Request.ContentLength is set to '0' by the caller
and Request.Body is set to a custom reader. To allow
newTransferWriter() to treat this situation as
'Transfer-Encoding: chunked'.

This change updates the GOARCH/GOOS discussion at the top of the
"Installing Go from source" document to better reflect the current
status. In particular:

- The GOARCH list now focuses on simply listing the supported
architectures, with no notes about their supposed "maturity", since
the same GOARCH can be mature on a GOOS and not so mature on another.

- Outdated notes about some archs being new and "not well-exercised"
have been removed in favour of a following list of which ports are
first class.

- The list of supported OS has been updated (added: AIX, Illumos),
and sorted in alphabetical order.

- A note about the runtime support being the same for all ARCHS,
"including garbage collection and efficient array slicing and" etc etc
has been removed, since it doesn't seem particularly relevant in a
"install from source" instruction page, and it's likely a leftover
from the time this doc page was the landing place for new people and
it felt the need to "sell" Go.
