Martin Möhrmann a8a60ac2a7 cmd/compile: optimize append(x, make([]T, y)...) slice extension
Changes the compiler to recognize the slice extension pattern

  append(x, make([]T, y)...)

and replace it with growslice and an optional memclr to avoid an allocation for make([]T, y).

Memclr is not called in case growslice already allocated a new cleared backing array
when T contains pointers.

Martin Möhrmann 500d79c410 cmd/compile: refactor memclrrange for arrays and slices
Rename memclrrange to signify that it does not handle
all types of range clears.

Simplify checks to detect the range clear idiom for
arrays and slices.

Add tests to verify the optimization for the slice
range clear idiom is being applied by the compiler.
