Move the IndexByte function from the runtime to a new bytealg package.
The new package will eventually hold all the optimized assembly for
groveling through byte slices and strings. It seems a better home for
this code than randomly keeping it in runtime.
Once this is in, the next step is to move the other functions
(Compare, Equal, ...).
Update #19792
This change seems complicated enough that we might just declare
"not worth it" and abandon. Opinions welcome.
The core assembly is all unchanged, except minor modifications where
the code reads cpu feature bits.
The wrapper functions have been cleaned up as they are now actually
checked by vet.

This is a subset of https://golang.org/cl/20022 with only the copyright
header lines, so the next CL will be smaller and more reviewable.
Go policy has been single space after periods in comments for some time.
The copyright header template at:
https://golang.org/doc/contribute.html#copyright
also uses a single space.
Make them all consistent.

The function is here ONLY for symmetry with package bytes.
This function should be used ONLY if it makes code clearer.
It is not here for performance. Remove any performance benefit.
If performance becomes an issue, the compiler should be fixed to
recognize the three-way compare (for all comparable types)
rather than encourage people to micro-optimize by using this function.

The implementation is the same assembly (or Go) routine.
