gc: use raw stack access whenever possible
The only architecture that actually needs special support for scanning the stack is WebAssembly. All others allow raw access to the stack with a small bit of assembly. Therefore, don't manually keep track of all these objects on the stack manually and instead just use conservative stack scanning. This results in a massive code size decrease in the affected targets (only tested linux/amd64 for code size) - sometimes around 33%. It also allows for future improvements such as using proper stackful goroutines.
