Compiler changes:
* Change map assignment to use mapassign and assign value directly.
* Change string iteration to use decoderune, faster for ASCII strings.
* Change makeslice to take int, and use makeslice64 for larger values.
* Add new noverflow field to hmap struct used for maps.
Unresolved problems, to be fixed later:
* Commented out test in go/types/sizes_test.go that doesn't compile.
* Commented out reflect.TestStructOf test for padding after zero-sized field.

Change the compiler handle append as the gc compiler does: call a
function to grow the slice, but otherwise assign the new elements
directly to the final slice.
For the current gccgo memory allocator the slice code has to call
runtime_newarray, not mallocgc directly, so that the allocator sets the
TypeInfo_Array bit in the type pointer.
Rename the static function cnew to runtime_docnew, so that the stack
trace ignores it when ignoring runtime functions. This was needed to
fix the runtime/pprof tests on 386.

This upgrades all of libgo other than the runtime package to
the Go 1.4 release. In Go 1.4 much of the runtime was
rewritten into Go. Merging that code will take more time and
will not change the API, so I'm putting it off for now.
There are a few runtime changes anyhow, to accomodate other
packages that rely on minor modifications to the runtime
support.
The compiler changes slightly to add a one-bit flag to each
type descriptor kind that is stored directly in an interface,
which for gccgo is currently only pointer types. Another
one-bit flag (gcprog) is reserved because it is used by the gc
compiler, but gccgo does not currently use it.
There is another error check in the compiler since I ran
across it during testing.
gotools/:
* Makefile.am (go_cmd_go_files): Sort entries. Add generate.go.
* Makefile.in: Rebuild.
