This patch to the Go frontend and libgo add a Go-specific memcmp
routine, which returns intgo rather than int. This is a step toward
using 64-bit int. The memcmp routine is only used for struct and array
equality comparisons, it is not really a performance issue.
Bootstrapped and ran Go testsuite on x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu.
Committed to mainline.
