cmd/compile: enable Asan check for global variables

With this patch, -asan option can detect the error memory
access to global variables.

So this patch makes a few changes:

1. Add the asanregisterglobals runtime support function,
which calls asan runtime function _asan_register_globals
to register global variables.

2. Create a new initialization function for the package
being compiled. This function initializes an array of
instrumented global variables and pass it to function
runtime.asanregisterglobals. An instrumented global
variable has trailing redzone.

3. Writes the new size of instrumented global variables
that have trailing redzones into object file.

4. Notice that the current implementation is only compatible with
the ASan library from version v7 to v9. Therefore, using the
-asan option requires that the gcc version is not less than 7
and the clang version is less than 4, otherwise a segmentation
fault will occur. So this patch adds a check on whether the compiler
being used is a supported version in cmd/go.
