Russ Cox be818361b9 [dev.cc] liblink: invoke 'go tool objwriter' to implement writeobj, if directed
This CL enables moving the bulk of the object writing code
out of liblink and into translated Go libraries in cmd/internal/obj,
but it does not do the move.

This CL introduces two new environment variables,
$GOOBJ and $GOOBJWRITER, but both will be deleted along with
the rest of the liblink C code.

The default behavior of a build is unchanged by this CL:
the C version of liblink uses the C object layout and writing code.

If $GOOBJ=1, liblink invokes go tool objwriter instead.

If $GOOBJ=2, liblink does its own layout and then invokes
go tool objwriter, which checks that it gets the same answer.

That is, in $GOOBJ=2 mode, both the C and the Go version of
the code run, and the operation fails if the two produce different
answers. This provides a very strong check that the translation
is working correctly.

Binary Distribution Notes

If you have just untarred a binary Go distribution, you need to set the environment variable $GOROOT to the full path of the go directory (the one containing this file). You can omit the variable if you unpack it into /usr/local/go, or if you rebuild from sources by running all.bash (see doc/install-source.html). You should also add the Go binary directory $GOROOT/bin to your shell's path.

For example, if you extracted the tar file into $HOME/go, you might put the following in your .profile:

export GOROOT=$HOME/go
export PATH=$PATH:$GOROOT/bin

See https://golang.org/doc/install or doc/install.html for more details.
