cmd/asm: fix several panics with erroneous input

The parser tries to read as much information as possible,
issuing some errors when needed. Errors generally do not
stop the parsing.

With some pathological input, it may result in various
panics when the error message itself is built, or when the
next operand is parsed. It happens while parsing
pseudo-instructions.

For instance, the following lines all generate a panic:

	TEXT
	TEXT%
	TEXT 1,1
	TEXT $"toto", 0, $1
	FUNCDATA
	DATA 0
	DATA(0),1
	FUNCDATA(SB
	GLOBL 0, 1
	PCDATA 1

Added corresponding tests.

Introduced a writer in the parser to capture error messages
for testing purpose. It defaults to os.Stderr.

Added an explicit check when symbol names cannot be displayed.

Interrupted parsing early when the number of operands is wrong for
pseudo-instructions.

Note that the last point is a change of behavior, because some
operands will not get parsed anymore in case of early error.

IMO, it is acceptable, because only the first error of the line
is considered anyway. If it is not acceptable, it can probably
be improved at the price of a more verbose CL.

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.
