Currently, threads created by the runtime exist until the whole
program exits. For #14592 and #20395, we want to be able to exit and
clean up threads created by the runtime. This commit implements that
mechanism.
The main difficulty is how to clean up the g0 stack. In cgo mode and
on Solaris and Windows where the OS manages thread stacks, we simply
arrange to return from mstart and let the system clean up the thread.
If the runtime allocated the g0 stack, then we use a new exitThread
syscall wrapper that arranges to clear a flag in the M once the stack
can safely be reaped and call the thread termination syscall.
exitThread is based on the existing exit1 wrapper, which was always
meant to terminate the calling thread. However, exit1 has never been
used since it was introduced 9 years ago, so it was broken on several
platforms. exitThread also has the additional complication of having
to flag that the stack is unused, which requires some tricks on
platforms that use the stack for syscalls.
This still leaves the problem of how to reap the unused g0 stacks. For
this, we move the M from allm to a new freem list as part of the M
exiting. Later, allocm scans the freem list, finds Ms that are marked
as done with their stack, removes these from the list and frees their
g0 stacks. This also allows these Ms to be garbage collected.
This CL does not yet use any of this functionality. Follow-up CLs
will. Likewise, there are no new tests in this CL because we'll need
follow-up functionality to test it.

Consistently access function parameters using the FP pseudo-register
instead of SP (e.g., x+0(FP) instead of x+4(SP) or x+8(SP), depending
on register size). Two reasons: 1) doc/asm says the SP pseudo-register
should use negative offsets in the range [-framesize, 0), and 2)
cmd/vet only validates parameter offsets when indexed from the FP
pseudo-register.
No binary changes to the compiled object files for any of the affected
package/OS/arch combinations.

Reduces the size of m by ~8% on linux/amd64 (1040 bytes -> 960 bytes).
There are also windows-specific fields, but they're currently
referenced in OS-independent source files (but only when
GOOS=="windows").

This reverts commit ab0535ae3f.
I think it will remain useful to distinguish code that must
run on a system stack from code that can run on either stack,
even if that distinction is no
longer based on the implementation language.
That is, I expect to add a //go:systemstack comment that,
in terms of the old implementation, tells the compiler,
to pretend this function was written in C.

Now that we've removed all the C code in runtime and the C compilers,
there is no need to have a separate stackguard field to check for C
code on Go stack.
Remove field g.stackguard1 and rename g.stackguard0 to g.stackguard.
Adjust liblink and cmd/ld as necessary.

The main change is that #include "zasm_GOOS_GOARCH.h"
is now #include "go_asm.h" and/or #include "go_tls.h".
Also, because C StackGuard is now Go _StackGuard,
the assembly name changes from const_StackGuard to
const__StackGuard.
In asm_$GOARCH.s, add new function getg, formerly
implemented in C.
The renamed atomics now have Go wrappers, to get
escape analysis annotations right. Those wrappers
are in CL 174860043.

A race exists between the parent and child processes after a fork.
The child needs to access the new M pointer passed as an argument
but the parent may have already returned and clobbered it.
Previously, we avoided this by saving the necessary data into
registers before the rfork system call but this isn't guaranteed
to work because Plan 9 makes no promises about the register state
after a system call. Only the 386 kernel seems to save them.
For amd64 and arm, this method won't work.
We eliminate the race by allocating stack space for the scheduler
goroutines (g0) in the per-process copy-on-write stack segment and
by only calling rfork on the scheduler stack.

The only thing I can see that is really Plan 9-specific
is that the stack pointer used for signal handling used
to have more mapped memory above it.
Specifically it used to have at most 88 bytes (StackTop),
so change the allocation of a 40-byte frame to a 128-byte frame.
No idea if this will work, but worth a try.
Note that "fix" here means get it back to timing out
instead of crashing.
