When the GC is scanning some memory (possibly conservatively), finding a pointer, while concurrently another goroutine is allocating an object at the same address as the found pointer, the GC may see the pointer before the object and/or the heap bits are initialized. This may cause the GC to see bad pointers and possibly crash. To prevent this, we make it that the scanner can only see the object as allocated after the object and the heap bits are initialized. As the scanner uses the freeindex to determine if an object is allocated, we delay the increment of freeindex after the initialization. As currently in some code path finding the next free index and updating the free index to a new slot past it is coupled, this needs a small refactoring. In the new code mspan.nextFreeIndex return the next free index but not update it (although allocCache is updated). mallocgc will update it at a later time. Fixes #54596.
