David Chase 8eec2bbfbc cmd/compile: added some intrinsics to SSA back end
One intrinsic was needed to help get the very best
performance out of a future GC; as long as that one was
being added, I also added Bswap since that is sometimes
a handy thing to have.  I had intended to fill out the
bit-scan intrinsic family, but the mismatch between the
"scan forward" instruction and "count leading zeroes"
was large enough to cause me to leave it out -- it poses
a dilemma that I'd rather dodge right now.

These intrinsics are not exposed for general use.
That's a separate issue requiring an API proposal change
( https://github.com/golang/proposal )

All intrinsics are tested, both that they are substituted
on the appropriate architecture, and that they produce the
expected result.
