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.

This revision was committed January 7, 2014. The next
revision deleted runtime/mfinal.c. That will be done in a
subsequent merge.
This merge changes type descriptors to add a zero field,
pointing to a zero value for that type. This is implemented
as a common variable.
* go-gcc.cc (Gcc_backend::implicit_variable): Add is_common and
alignment parameters. Permit init parameter to be NULL.

--enable-shared. Mention go as an option for --enable-languages.
* doc/invoke.texi (Overall Options): Mention .go as a file name
