Export data encoding:

The export data is a serialized description of the graph of exported
objects: constants, types, variables, and functions. Only types can
be re-exported and so we need to know which package they are coming
from. Therefore, packages are also part of the export graph.

The roots of the graph are the list of constants, variables, functions,
and eventually types. Types are written last because most of them will
be written as part of other objects which will reduce the number of
types that need to be written separately.

The graph is serialized in in-order fashion, starting with the roots.
Each object in the graph is serialized by writing its fields sequentially.
If the field is a pointer to another object, that object is serialized,
recursively. Otherwise the field is written. Non-pointer fields are all
encoded as either an integer or string value.

Only packages and types may be referred to more than once. When getting
to a package or type that was not serialized before, a number (index) is
assigned to it, starting at 0. In this case, the encoding starts with an
integer tag with a value < 0. The tag value indicates the kind of object
(package or type) that follows and that this is the first time that we
see this object. If the package or tag was already serialized, the encoding
starts with the respective package or type index >= 0. An importer can
trivially determine if a package or type needs to be read in for the first
time (tag < 0) and entered into the respective package or type table, or
if the package or type was seen already (index >= 0), in which case the
index is the table index where the respective object can be found.

Before exporting or importing, the type tables are populated with the
predeclared types (int, string, error, unsafe.Pointer, etc.). This way
they are automatically encoded with a known and fixed type index.

Encoding format:

The export data starts with a single byte indicating the encoding format
(compact, or with debugging information), followed by a version string
(so we can evolve the encoding if need be), the name of the imported
package, and a string containing platform-specific information for that
package.

After this header, the lists of objects follow. After the objects, platform-
specific data may be found which is not used strictly for type checking.

The encoding of objects is straight-forward: Constants, variables, and
functions start with their name, type, and possibly a value. Named types
record their name and package so that they can be canonicalized: If the
same type was imported before via another import, the importer must use
the previously imported type pointer so that we have exactly one version
(i.e., one pointer) for each named type (and read but discard the current
type encoding). Unnamed types simply encode their respective fields.

In the encoding, all lists (of objects, struct fields, methods, parameter
names, but also the bytes of a string, etc.) start with an integer which
is the length of the list. This permits an importer to allocate the right
amount of space to hold the list without the need to grow it later.

All integer values use a variable-length encoding for compact representation.

If debugFormat is set, each integer and string value is preceeded by a marker
and position information in the encoding. This mechanism permits an importer
to recognize immediately when it is out of sync. The importer recognizes this
mode automatically (i.e., it can import export data produced with debugging
support even if debugFormat is not set at the time of import). Using this mode
will massively increase the size of the export data (by a factor of 2 to 3)
and is only recommended for debugging.

The exporter and importer are completely symmetric in implementation: For
each encoding routine there is the matching and symmetric decoding routine.
This symmetry makes it very easy to change or extend the format: If a new
field needs to be encoded, a symmetric change can be made to exporter and
importer.
