This patch by Cherry Zhang changes the Go frontend and libgo to use
more direct interfaces.  A direct interface is an interface whose data
word contains the actual data value, instead of a pointer to it. The
gc toolchain creates a direct interface if the value is pointer
shaped, that includes pointers (including unsafe.Pointer), functions,
channels, maps, and structs and arrays containing a single
pointer-shaped field. In gccgo, we only do this for pointers. This
patch unifies direct interface types with gc. This reduces allocations
when converting such types to interfaces.

Our method functions used to always take pointer receivers, to make
interface calls easy. Now for direct interface types, their value
methods will take value receivers. For a pointer to those types, when
converted to interface, the interface data contains the pointer. For
that interface to call a value method, it will need a wrapper method
that dereference the pointer and invokes the value method. The wrapper
method, instead of the actual one, is put into the itable of the
pointer type.

In the runtime, adjust funcPC for the new layout of interfaces of functions.

Bootstrapped and ran Go testsuite on x86_64-pc-linux-gnu.  Committed
to mainline.
