Update #3865

Unexported field and method names that appear in the
export data (as part of some exported type) are fully
qualified with a package id (path). In some cases, a
package with that id was never exported for any other
use (i.e. only the path is of interest).

We must not create a "real" package in those cases
because we don't have a package name. Entering an
unnamed package into the map of imported packages
makes that package accessible for other imports.
Such a subsequent import may find the unnamed
package in the map, and reuse it. That reused and
imported package is then entered into the importing
file scope, still w/o a name. References to that
package cannot resolved after that. Was bug.

Operands returns the SSA values used by an instruction.
Referrers returns the SSA instructions that use a value, for
some values.  These will be used for SSA renaming, to follow.

Previously merely printing an error would cause the golden
file comparison (in 'bash run') to fail, but that is no longer
the case with the new run.go driver.

The lowering of ast.RangeStmt now has three distinct cases:

1) rangeIter for maps and strings; approximately:
    it = range x
    for {
      k, v, ok = next it
      if !ok { break }
      ...
    }
   The Range instruction and the interpreter's "iter"
   datatype are now restricted to these types.

2) rangeChan for channels; approximately:
    for {
      k, ok = <-x
      if !ok { break }
      ...
    }

3) rangeIndexed for slices, arrays, and *array; approximately:
    for k, l = 0, len(x); k < l; k++ {
      v = x[k]
      ...
    }

In all cases we now evaluate the side effects of the range expression
exactly once, per comments on http://code.google.com/p/go/issues/detail?id=4644.

However the exact spec wording is still being discussed in
https://golang.org/cl/7307083/.  Further (small)
changes may be required once the dust settles.

Details:
- reorder.go: delete p8.
  (Once expectation is changed per b/4627 it is identical to p1.)
- switch.go: added some more (degenerate) switches.
- range.go: improved error messages in a few cases.
- method.go: added tests of calls to promoted methods.

Simplify the internal logic for flags controlling what to vet,
by introducing a map of flags that gathers them all together.
This change should simplify the process of adding further flags.

Add a test for untagged struct literals.
Delete a redundant test that was also in the wrong file.
Clean up some ERROR patterns that weren't working.

"make test" passes again.

This is documenting the status quo. The previous cleanup
added this language as an implementation restriction, but
at least for now it is really part of the language proper.

This CL provides the rest of the SetCookies code as well as
some test infrastructure which will be used to test also
the Cookies method. This test infrastructure is optimized
for readability and tries to make it easy to review table
driven test cases.

Tests for all the different corner cases of SetCookies
will be provided in a separate CL.
