cmd/go: always link external test packages first when using gccgo

This CL is an amagamation of several fixes Canonical have made on their
fork of the cmd/go tool (packaged as gccgo-go.deb on Ubuntu 14.04+).

Additionally this CL brings gccgoToolchain.ldi() up to date with the version
that will ship in gccgo-5.0. As gccgo is most likely to be used with its
own version of the go tool that it supples it makes good sense that the libgo
version should dictate the contents of gccgotoolchain.ld()

Please see https://codereview.appspot.com/222890043/ for more details on the
issues fixed.

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.
