Several places used the (*[1 << N]T)(ptr)[:len:len] pattern to convert
C pointers to Go slices. This has a hardcoded size limit that can panic
if exceeded; RunTool hit this with >1024 linker arguments when many
files are embedded.
Replace all instances with unsafe.Slice, which handles any size.
This was actually surprising once I got TinyGo to build on Windows 11
ARM64. All the changes are exactly what you'd expect for a new
architecture, there was no special weirdness just for arm64.
Actually getting TinyGo to build was kind of involved though. The very
short summary is: install arm64 versions of some pieces of software
(like golang, cmake) instead of installing them though choco. In
particular, use the llvm-mingw[1] toolchain instead of using standard
mingw.

Switch over to LLVM 14 for static builds. Keep using LLVM 13 for regular
builds for now.
This uses a branch of the upstream Espressif branch to fix an issue,
see: https://github.com/espressif/llvm-project/pull/59
This means that it will be possible to generate a Darwin binary on any
platform (Windows, Linux, and MacOS of course), including CGo. Of
course, the resulting binaries can only run on MacOS itself.
The binary links against libSystem.dylib, which is a shared library. The
macos-minimal-sdk repository contains open source header files and
generated symbol stubs so we can generate a stub libSystem.dylib without
copying any closed source code.
Do it all at once in preparation for Go 1.18 support.
To make this commit, I've simply modified the `fmt-check` Makefile
target to rewrite files instead of listing the differences. So this is a
fully mechanical change, it should not have introduced any errors.
This is necessary because LLVM defines many options in global variables
that are modified when invoking Clang. In particular, LLVM 10 seems to
have a bug in which it always sets the -pgo-warn-misexpect flag. Setting
it multiple times (over various cc1 invocations) results in an error:
clang (LLVM option parsing): for the --pgo-warn-misexpect option: may only occur zero or one times!
This is fixed by running the Clang invocation in a new `tinygo`
invocation.
Because we've had issues with lld in the past, also run lld in a
separate process so similar issues won't happen with lld in the future.
