Keith Randall d949d0b925 cmd/compile: reorganize init functions
Instead of writing an init function per package that does the same
thing for every package, just write that implementation once in the
runtime. Change the compiler to generate a data structure that encodes
the required initialization operations.

Reduces cmd/go binary size by 0.3%+.  Most of the init code is gone,
including all the corresponding stack map info. The .inittask
structures that replace them are quite a bit smaller.

Most usefully to me, there is no longer an init function in every -S output.
(There is an .inittask global there, but it's much less distracting.)

After this CL we could change the name of the "init.ializers" function
back to just "init".

Update #6853

R=go1.13
