The registerization code needs the function to end in a RET,
even if that RET is actually unreachable.

The liveness code needs to avoid such unreachable RETs.
It had a special case for final RET after JMP, but no case
for final RET after UNDEF. Instead of expanding the special
cases, let fixjmp - which already knows what is and is not
reachable definitively - mark the unreachable RET so that
the liveness code can identify it.

A normal RET is treated as using the return values,
but a tail jump RET does not - it is jumping to the
function that is going to fill in the return values.
If a tail jump RET is recorded as using the return values,
since nothing initializes them they will be marked as
live on entry to the function, which is clearly wrong.

Found and tested by the new code in plive.c that looks
for variables that are incorrectly live on entry.
That code is disabled for now because there are other
cases remaining to be fixed. But once it is enabled,
test/live1.go becomes a real test of this CL.

Any initialization of a variable by a block copy or block zeroing

The test added in CL 63630043 fails on 5g and 8g because they

Before, an unnamed return value turned into an ONAME node n with n->sym
named ~anon%d, and n->orig == n.

A blank-named return value turned into an ONAME node n with n->sym
named ~anon%d but n->orig == the original blank n. Code generation and
printing uses n->orig, so that this node formatted as _.

But some code does not use n->orig. In particular the liveness code does
not know about the n->orig convention and so mishandles blank identifiers.
It is possible to fix but seemed better to avoid the confusion entirely.

Now the first kind of node is named ~r%d and the second ~b%d; both have
n->orig == n, so that it doesn't matter whether code uses n or n->orig.

After this change the ->orig field is only used for other kinds of expressions,
not for ONAME nodes.

This requires distinguishing ~b from ~r names in a few places that care.
It fixes a liveness analysis bug without actually changing the liveness code.

Make the loop nesting depth of &x depend on where x is declared,
not on where the &x appears. The latter is only a conservative
estimate of the former. Being more careful can avoid some
variables escaping, and it is easier to reason about.

It would have avoided issue 7313, although that was still a bug
worth fixing.

Not much effect in the tree: one variable in the whole tree
is saved from a heap allocation (something in x509 parsing).

Tweak the ARM assembler to improve its performance.

  * Use TEQ instead of CMP which preserves the carry flag.  This means
    we can avoid saving and restoring CPSR which is very slow.

  * Use conditional instructions to read the value of the carry flag.

  * Use 3 argument ARM instructions to save instructions

  * Improve scheduling for MOVW instructions (LDR)

  * Use RSB constant to save an instruction in bitLen

Results of -test.bench 'VV|VW|VU|WW|Bit' -test.benchtime 3s on Samsung
Exynos5 Chromebook.

There are a few small regressions in the benchmarks which I believe to
be noise, perhaps due to different cacheline alignment.

The changes to bitLen are apparently no faster, however less
instructions means less I-cache usage which is a win. I suspect it
will be a win on older ARM processors.

go/build is changed to list the .m files in a package, and match them for build constraints, adding them to a new field: Package.MFiles.

The go tool is changed to support building .m files and linking in the results during CGO and SWIG builds. This means packages that create a C interface to calls Objective-C code from go are now go-gettable without producing and distributing .syso files. This change is analogous to the one in Go 1.2 made to support C++ built code.
