Robert Griesemer 49de5f0351 [dev.typealias] cmd/compile, go/importer: define export format and implement importing of type aliases
This defines the (tentative) export/import format for type aliases.

The compiler doesn't support type aliases yet, so while the code is present
it is guarded with a flag.

The export format for embedded (anonymous) fields now has three modes (mode 3 is new):
1) The original type name and the anonymous field name are the same, and the name is exported:
   we don't need the field name and write "" instead
2) The original type name and the anonymous field name are the same, and the name is not exported:
   we don't need the field name and write "?" instead, indicating that there is package info
3) The original type name and the anonymous field name are different:
   we do need the field name and write "@" followed by the field name (and possible package info)

For #18130.

Our canonical Git repository is located at https://go.googlesource.com/go. There is a mirror of the repository at https://github.com/golang/go.

Go is the work of hundreds of contributors. We appreciate your help!

Binary Distribution Notes

If you have just untarred a binary Go distribution, you need to set the environment variable $GOROOT to the full path of the go directory (the one containing this file). You can omit the variable if you unpack it into /usr/local/go, or if you rebuild from sources by running all.bash (see doc/install-source.html). You should also add the Go binary directory $GOROOT/bin to your shell's path.

For example, if you extracted the tar file into $HOME/go, you might put the following in your .profile:

export GOROOT=$HOME/go
export PATH=$PATH:$GOROOT/bin

See https://golang.org/doc/install or doc/install.html for more details.
