This CL contains compiler+runtime changes that detect C code
running on Go (not g0, not gsignal) stacks, and it contains
corrections for what it detected.
The detection works by changing the C prologue to use a different
stack guard word in the G than Go prologue does. On the g0 and
gsignal stacks, that stack guard word is set to the usual
stack guard value. But on ordinary Go stacks, that stack
guard word is set to ^0, which will make any stack split
check fail. The C prologue then calls morestackc instead
of morestack, and morestackc aborts the program with
a message about running C code on a Go stack.
This check catches all C code running on the Go stack
except NOSPLIT code. The NOSPLIT code is allowed,
so the check is complete. Since it is a dynamic check,
the code must execute to be caught. But unlike the static
checks we've been using in cmd/ld, the dynamic check
works with function pointers and other indirect calls.
For example it caught sigpanic being pushed onto Go
stacks in the signal handlers.
Fixes#8667.

* byteastring is no longer used
* do not generate ODCL, OAS for globals
(wasn't generating any code but might
save one or two init functions)

add test for string range.
test has minor failure: after loop the index == len(s); should be len(s)-1
in this case. according to spec, vars are left at position at last
iteration.

to string convert. if the byte array has length 0,
the computation of &a[0] throws an index bounds error.
for fixed size arrays, this ends up invoking arrays2d
unnecessarily, but it works.
