Ian Lance Taylor 1db4c8dc41 runtime: fix VDSO lookup to use dynamic hash table
Reportedly in the Linux 3.16 kernel the VDSO will not have
section headers or a normal symbol table.

Too late for 1.3 but perhaps for 1.3.1, if there is one.

Fixes #8197.

Keith Randall a5d4024139 runtime: faster & safer hash function
Uses AES hardware instructions on 386/amd64 to implement
a fast hash function.  Incorporates a random key to
thwart hash collision DOS attacks.
Depends on CL#7548043 for new assembly instructions.

Update #3885
Helps some by making hashing faster.  Go time drops from
0.65s to 0.51s.

Shenghou Ma 4022fc4e21 runtime: use vDSO clock_gettime for time.now & runtime.nanotime on Linux/amd64
Performance improvement aside, time.Now() now gets real nanosecond resolution
on supported systems.

Benchmark done on Core i7-2600 @ 3.40GHz with kernel 3.5.2-gentoo.
original vDSO gettimeofday:
BenchmarkNow    100000000               27.4 ns/op
new vDSO gettimeofday fallback:
BenchmarkNow    100000000               27.6 ns/op
new vDSO clock_gettime:
BenchmarkNow    100000000               24.4 ns/op
