Make sure every to-be-implemented GC can use the same interface. As a
result, a 1MB chunk of RAM is allocated on Unix systems on init instead
of allocating on demand.
Let each target handle its own initialization/finalization sequence
instead of providing one in the runtime with hooks for memory
initialization etc. This is much more flexible although it causes a
little bit of code duplication.
This increases code size by 1 instruction (2 bytes) because LLVM isn't
yet smart enough to recognize that it doesn't need to clear a register
to use 0: it can just use r1 which is always 0 according to the
convention. It makes initialization a lot easier to read, however.
time.Sleep now compiles on all systems, so lets use that.
Additionally, do a few improvements in time unit handling for the
scheduler. This should lead to somewhat longer sleep durations without
wrapping (on some platforms).
Some examples got smaller, some got bigger. In particular, code using
the scheduler got bigger and the blinky1 example got smaller (especially
on Arduino: 380 -> 314 bytes).
Don't store addresses in the values of registers, this leads to problems
with char arrays (among others). Instead, do it like it's done in C with
raw addresses cast to struct pointers.
This commit also splits gen-device.py, as AVR and ARM have very
different ideas of what a register is. It's easier to just keep them
separate.
This requires support in LLVM, as AVR support is still experimental. For
example, in bindings/go/build.sh, add
-DLLVM_EXPERIMENTAL_TARGETS_TO_BUILD=AVR to cmake_flags.
