When linking against a Go shared library, when a global variable
in the main module has a type defined in the shared library, the
linker needs to pull the GC data from the shared library to build
the GC program for the global variable. Currently, this fails
silently, as the shared library file is closed too early and the
read failed (with no error check), causing a zero GC map emitted
for the variable, which in turn causes the runtime to treat the
variable as pointerless.
For now, fix this by keeping the file open. In the future we may
want to use mmap to read from the shared library instead.
Also add error checking. And fix a (mostly harmless) mistake in
size caluculation.
Also remove an erroneous condition for ARM64. ARM64 used to have
a special case to get the addend from the relocation on the
gcdata field. That was removed, but the new code accidentally
returned 0 unconditionally. It's no longer necessary to have any
special case, since the addend is now applied directly to the
gcdata field on ARM64, like on all the other platforms.

Right now we generate hash functions for all types, just in case they
are used as map keys. That's a lot of wasted effort and binary size
for types which will never be used as a map key. Instead, generate
hash functions only for types that we know are map keys.
Just doing that is a bit too simple, since maps with an interface type
as a key might have to hash any concrete key type that implements that
interface. So for that case, implement hashing of such types at
runtime (instead of with generated code). It will be slower, but only
for maps with interface types as keys, and maybe only a bit slower as
the aeshash time probably dominates the dispatch time.
Reorg where we keep the equals and hash functions. Move the hash function
from the key type to the map type, saving a field in every non-map type.
That leaves only one function in the alg structure, so get rid of that and
just keep the equal function in the type descriptor itself.
cmd/go now has 10 generated hash functions, instead of 504. Makes
cmd/go 1.0% smaller. Update #6853.
Speed on non-interface keys is unchanged. Speed on interface keys
is ~20% slower:

This CL introduces the typeOff type and a lookup method of the same
name that can turn a typeOff offset into an *rtype.
In a typical Go binary (built with buildmode=exe, pie, c-archive, or
c-shared), there is one moduledata and all typeOff values are offsets
relative to firstmoduledata.types. This makes computing the pointer
cheap in typical programs.
With buildmode=shared (and one day, buildmode=plugin) there are
multiple modules whose relative offset is determined at runtime.
We identify a type in the general case by the pair of the original
*rtype that references it and its typeOff value. We determine
the module from the original pointer, and then use the typeOff from
there to compute the final *rtype.
To ensure there is only one *rtype representing each type, the
runtime initializes a typemap for each module, using any identical
type from an earlier module when resolving that offset. This means
that types computed from an offset match the type mapped by the
pointer dynamic relocations.
A series of followup CLs will replace other *rtype values with typeOff
(and name/*string with nameOff).
For types created at runtime by reflect, type offsets are treated as
global IDs and reference into a reflect offset map kept by the runtime.

Today the linker keeps all methods of reachable types. This is
necessary if a program uses reflect.Value.Call. But while use of
reflection is widespread in Go for encoders and decoders, using
it to call a method is rare.
This CL looks for the use of reflect.Value.Call in a program, and
if it is absent, adopts a (reasonably conservative) method pruning
strategy as part of dead code elimination. Any method that is
directly called is kept, and any method that matches a used
interface's method signature is kept.
Whether or not a method body is kept is determined by the relocation
from its receiver's *rtype to its *rtype. A small change in the
compiler marks these relocations as R_METHOD so they can be easily
collected and manipulated by the linker.
As a bonus, this technique removes the text segment of methods that
have been inlined. Looking at the output of building cmd/objdump with
-ldflags=-v=2 shows that inlined methods like
runtime.(*traceAllocBlockPtr).ptr are removed from the program.
Relatively little work is necessary to do this. Linking two
examples, jujud and cmd/objdump show no more than +2% link time.
Binaries that do not use reflect.Call.Value drop 4 - 20% in size:
addr2line: -793KB (18%)

nm: -827KB (19%)
objdump: -712KB (16%)
pack: -327KB (14%)
yacc: -350KB (10%)
Binaries that do use reflect.Call.Value see a modest size decrease
of 2 - 6% thanks to pruning of unexported methods:
api: -151KB (3%)
cover: -222KB (4%)
doc: -106KB (2.5%)
pprof: -314KB (3%)
trace: -357KB (4%)
vet: -187KB (2.7%)

cmd/go: -384KB (3.4%)
The trivial Hello example program goes from 2MB to 1.68MB:
package main
import "fmt"
func main() {
fmt.Println("Hello, 世界")
}
Method pruning also helps when building small binaries with
"-ldflags=-s -w". The above program goes from 1.43MB to 1.2MB.
Unfortunately the linker can only tell if reflect.Value.Call has been
statically linked, not if it is dynamically used. And while use is
rare, it is linked into a very common standard library package,
text/template. The result is programs like cmd/go, which don't use
reflect.Value.Call, see limited benefit from this CL. If binary size
is important enough it may be possible to address this in future work.

Alternative to golang.org/cl/19852. This memory layout doesn't have
an easy type representation, but it is noticeably smaller than the
current funcType, and saves significant extra space.
Some notes on the layout are in reflect/type.go:
// A *rtype for each in and out parameter is stored in an array that
// directly follows the funcType (and possibly its uncommonType). So
// a function type with one method, one input, and one output is:
//
// struct {
// funcType
// uncommonType
// [2]*rtype // [0] is in, [1] is out
// uncommonTypeSliceContents
// }
There are three arbitrary limits introduced by this CL:
1. No more than 65535 function input parameters.
2. No more than 32767 function output parameters.
3. reflect.FuncOf is limited to 128 parameters.
I don't think these are limits in practice, but are worth noting.

Instead of a pointer on every rtype, use a bit flag to indicate that
the contents of uncommonType directly follows the rtype value when it
is needed.
This requires a bit of juggling in the compiler's rtype encoder. The
backing arrays for fields in the rtype are presently encoded directly
after the slice header. This packing requires separating the encoding
of the uncommonType slice headers from their backing arrays.
Reduces binary size of godoc by ~180KB (1.5%).
No measurable change in all.bash time.

Simplifies some code as ptrToThis was unreliable under dynamic
linking. Now the same type lookup is used regardless of execution
mode.
A synthetic relocation, R_USETYPE, is introduced to make sure the
linker includes *T on use of T, if *T is carrying methods.
Changes the heap dump format. Anything reading the format needs to
look at the last bool of a type of an interface value to determine
if the type should be the pointer-to type.
Reduces binary size of cmd/go by 0.2%.

We already read the address of a gcmask/gcprog out of the type data, but I
didn't know how many bytes to read. But it turns out that it's easy to
calculate, so change to do that. This means that we no longer depend on the
local symbols being present, allowing me to strip the shared libraries for
distribution and make them a lot smaller.
As a bonus, this makes LSym another 24 bytes smaller, down to 296 bytes now.

Trivial merging of 5g, 6g, ... into go tool compile,
and similarlly 5l, 6l, ... into go tool link.
The files compile/main.go and link/main.go are new.
Everything else in those directories is a move followed by
change of imports and package name.
This CL breaks the build. Manual fixups are in the next CL.
See golang-dev thread titled "go tool compile, etc" for background.
