The current implementation of Gogo::pkgpath_for_symbol was written in
a way that allowed two distinct package paths to map to the same
symbol, which could cause collisions at link- time or compile-time.
Switch to a better mangling scheme to insure that we get a unique
packagepath symbol for each package. In the new scheme instead of having
separate mangling schemes for identifiers and package paths, the
main identifier mangler ("go_encode_id") now handles mangling of
both packagepath characters and identifier characters.
The new mangling scheme is more intrusive: "foo/bar.Baz" is mangled as
"foo..z2fbar.Baz" instead of "foo_bar.Baz". To mitigate this, this
patch also adds a demangling capability so that function names
returned from runtime.CallersFrames are converted back to their
original unmangled form.
Changing the pkgpath_for_symbol scheme requires updating a number of
//go:linkname directives and C "__asm__" directives to match the new
scheme, as well as updating the 'gotest' driver (which makes
assumptions about the correct mapping from pkgpath symbol to package
name).

While we're at it, update the runtime/debug package, and start running
its testsuite by default. I'm not sure why runtime/debug was not
previously updated to 1.7. Doing that led me to fix some minor aspects
of runtime.Stack and the C function runtime/debug.readGCStats.

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.
