Austin Clements f9e1adb713 runtime: lift systemstack part of gcAssistAlloc
This lifts the part of gcAssistAlloc that runs on the system stack to
its own function in preparation for letting assists perform root jobs
(notably stack scanning). This makes it easy to see that there are no
references to the user stack once we've entered gcAssistAlloc1, which
means it's safe to shrink the stack while in gcAssistAlloc1.

This does not yet make assists perform root jobs, so it's not actually
possible for the stack to shrink yet. That will happen in the next
commit.

The code in gcAssistAlloc1 is identical to the code that's currently
passed in a closure to systemstack with one exception. Currently, we
set the "completed" variable in the enclosing scope to indicate that
the assist completed the mark phase. This is exactly the sort of
cross-stack reference lifting this function is meant to prevent. We
replace this variable with setting gp.param to nil or non-nil to
indicate the completion status.

Updates #15361.

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!

To contribute, please read the contribution guidelines: https://golang.org/doc/contribute.html

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.
