libgo: update to Go 1.8 release candidate 1

    
    Compiler changes:
      * Change map assignment to use mapassign and assign value directly.
      * Change string iteration to use decoderune, faster for ASCII strings.
      * Change makeslice to take int, and use makeslice64 for larger values.
      * Add new noverflow field to hmap struct used for maps.
    
    Unresolved problems, to be fixed later:
      * Commented out test in go/types/sizes_test.go that doesn't compile.
      * Commented out reflect.TestStructOf test for padding after zero-sized field.
