"archive/tar: reuse temporary buffer in writeHeader" introduced a
change which was supposed to help lower the number of allocations from
512 bytes for every call to writeHeader. This change broke the writing
of PAX headers.

writeHeader calls writePAXHeader and writePAXHeader calls writeHeader
again. writeHeader will end up writing the PAX header twice.

example broken header:
PaxHeaders.4007/NetLock_Arany_=Class_Gold=_Ftanstvny.crt0000000000000000000000000000007112301216634021512 xustar0000000000000000

example correct header:
PaxHeaders.4290/NetLock_Arany_=Class_Gold=_Ftanstvny.crt0000000000000000000000000000007112301216634021516 xustar0000000000000000

This commit adds a dedicated buffer for pax headers to the Writer
struct. This change increases the size of the struct by 512 bytes, but
allows tar/writer to avoid allocating 512 bytes for all written
headers and it avoids allocating 512 more bytes for pax headers.

It's a bit slower, but not painfully so.  There is still room for
improvement (saving space so we can use nosplit, and removing the

This CL adds 'dropg', which is called to drop the association
between m and its current goroutine, and it makes schedule
handle locked goroutines correctly, instead of requiring all
callers of schedule to do that.

The effect is that if you want to take over an m for, say,
garbage collection work while still allowing the current g
to run on some other m, you can do an mcall to a function
that is:

        // dissociate gp
        dropg();
        gp->status = Gwaiting; // for ready

        // put gp on run queue for others to find
        runtime·ready(gp);

        /* ... do other work here ... */

        // done with m, let it run goroutines again
        schedule();

Before this CL, the dropg() body had to be written explicitly,
and the check for lockedg before schedule had to be
written explicitly too, both of which make the code a bit
more fragile than it needs to be.

This is a fully backward-compatible language change.

There are not a lot of cases in the std library, but
there are some. Arguably this makes the syntax a bit
more regular - any trailing index variable that is _
can be left away, and there's some analogy to type
switches where the temporary can be left away.

Implementation-wise the change should be trivial as
it can be done completely syntactically. For instance,
the respective change in go/parser is a dozen lines
(see https://golang.org/cl/112970044 ).

debug/elf: add (*File).DynamicSymbols, ErrNoSymbols, and tests for (*File).Symbols and (*File).DynamicSymbols, and formalize symbol order.

Added a complement to (*File).Symbols for the dynamic symbol table.
Would be useful, for instance, if seraching for certain shared objects
compatible with certain libraries (for instance, LADSPA requires an
exported symbol "ladspa_descriptor").

Added a variable ErrNoSymbols that canonicalizes a return from
(*File).Symbols and (*File).DyanmicSymbols if the file has no symbols.

Added tests for both (*File).Symbols and (*File).DynamicSymbols;
there was never a test for (*File).Symbols at all. A small C program using
libelf, included in the test data, was used to produce the golden
symbols to compare against.

As part of the requirements for testing, (*File).Symbols and (*File).DynamicSymbols now document the order in which the symbol tables are returned (in the order the symbols appear in the file).

All tests currently pass.
