runtime/cgo: make cgo work with openbsd ABI changes

OpenBSD 6.0 (due out November 2016) will support PT_TLS, which will
allow for the OpenBSD cgo pthread_create() workaround to be removed.

However, in order for Go to continue working on supported OpenBSD
releases (the current release and the previous release - 5.9 and 6.0,
once 6.0 is released), we cannot enable PT_TLS immediately. Instead,
adjust the existing code so that it works with the previous TCB
allocation and the new TIB allocation. This allows the same Go
runtime to work on 5.8, 5.9 and later 6.0.

Once OpenBSD 5.9 is no longer supported (May 2017, when 6.1 is
released), PT_TLS can be enabled and the additional cgo runtime
code removed.

The Go Programming Language

Go is an open source programming language that makes it easy to build simple, reliable, and efficient software.

Our canonical Git repository is located at https://go.googlesource.com/go. There is a mirror of the repository at https://github.com/golang/go.

Go is the work of hundreds of contributors. We appreciate your help!

To contribute, please read the contribution guidelines: https://golang.org/doc/contribute.html

Note that we do not accept pull requests and that we use the issue tracker for bug reports and proposals only. Please ask questions on https://forum.golangbridge.org or https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/golang-nuts.

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.
