The reflect package needs to know the endianness of the system in a few
places. Before this patch, it assumed little-endian systems. But with
GOARCH=mips we now have a big-endian system which also needs to be
supported. So this patch fixes the reflect package to work on big-endian
systems.
Also, I've updated the tests for MIPS: instead of running the
little-endian tests, I've changed it to run the big-endian tests
instead. The two are very similar except for endianness so this should
be fine. To be sure we won't accidentally break little-endian support,
I've kept a single MIPS little-endian test (the CGo test, which doesn't
yet work on big-endian systems anyway).
This was needed in the past because LLVM used typed pointers and there
was a mismatch between pointer types. But we've dropped support for
typed pointers a while ago so now we can remove these wrappers.
This is just a cleanup, it shouldn't have any practical effect.
* reflect: rawFieldByNameFunc: copy index slice to avoid later overwrites
* runtime: Simplify slice growing/appending code
Refactor the slice appending function to rely on the slice growing
function, and remove branches/loops to use a branchfree variant.

* runtime: Remove one branch in sliceAppend()
Both branches were equivalent, so guard the overall logic in
sliceAppend() with the more general condition.

* runtime: Simplify slice growing calculation
Use `bits.Len()` rather than `32 - bits.LeadingZeros32()`. They're
equivalent, but the Len version is a bit easier to read.

* reflect: Always call sliceGrow() in extendSlice()
sliceGrow() will return the old slice if its capacity is large enough.

The IsZero function was changed slightly in Go 1.22, so we'll need to
update it.
While this could in theory break existing programs that rely on the old
behavior, they'd also break with the imminent Go 1.22 release so I don't
think this is a real problem.
This adds FieldByNameFunc, which some libraries like reflect2 need.
For my usecase I could also just stub FieldByNameFunc to panic, but
figured that it would work OK to just make it work. I'm not sure if
the overhead to FieldByName using a closure is acceptable.

It could be expensive to call Size() three times, and it is unnecessary.
Instead, do it only once.
This results in a very small reduction of binary size if Zero() is used.
The runtime.stringFromBytesTyped and runtime.stringToBytesTyped
functions aren't really necessary, because they have the same LLVM IR
signature. Therefore, remove them and link directly to the functions
that the compiler uses internally.
