runtime: export main.main for android

Previously we started the Go runtime from a JNI function call, which
eventually called the program's main function. Now the runtime is
initialized by an ELF initialization function as a c-shared library,
and the program's main function is not called. So now we export main
so it can be called from JNI.

This is necessary for all-Go apps because unlike a normal shared
library, the program loading the library is not written by or known
to the programmer. As far as they are concerned, the .so is
everything. In fact the same code is compiled for iOS as a normal Go
program.

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.
