Adds:
GOEXPERIMENT=loopvar (expected way of invoking)
-d=loopvar={-1,0,1,2,11,12} (for per-package control and/or logging)
-d=loopvarhash=... (for hash debugging)
loopvar=11,12 are for testing, benchmarking, and debugging.
If enabled,for loops of the form `for x,y := range thing`, if x and/or
y are addressed or captured by a closure, are transformed by renaming
x/y to a temporary and prepending an assignment to the body of the
loop x := tmp_x. This changes the loop semantics by making each
iteration's instance of x be distinct from the others (currently they
are all aliased, and when this matters, it is almost always a bug).
3-range with captured iteration variables are also transformed,
though it is a more complex transformation.
"Optimized" to do a simpler transformation for
3-clause for where the increment is empty.
(Prior optimization of address-taking under Return disabled, because
it was incorrect; returns can have loops for children. Restored in
a later CL.)
Includes support for -d=loopvarhash=<binary string> intended for use
with hash search and GOCOMPILEDEBUG=loopvarhash=<binary string>
(use `gossahash -e loopvarhash command-that-fails`).
Minor feature upgrades to hash-triggered features; clients can specify
that file-position hashes use only the most-inline position, and/or that
they use only the basenames of source files (not the full directory path).
Most-inlined is the right choice for debugging loop-iteration change
once the semantics are linked to the package across inlining; basename-only
makes it tractable to write tests (which, otherwise, depend on the full
pathname of the source file and thus vary).
Updates #57969.
