Ayke van Laethem ad7297a539 all: implement trivial select statements
Implement two trivial uses of the select statement.

Always blocking:
    select {}

No-op:
    select {
    default:
    }

Go 1.12 added a `select {}` instruction to syscall/js, so this is needed
for Go 1.12 support. More complete support for select will be added in
the future.

Ayke van Laethem 2e4dd09bbc compiler: add support for channel operations
Support for channels is not complete. The following pieces are missing:

  * Channels with values bigger than int. An int in TinyGo can always
    contain at least a pointer, so pointers are okay to send.
  * Buffered channels.
  * The select statement.

Ayke van Laethem 602c264749 all: rewrite goroutine lowering
Before this commit, goroutine support was spread through the compiler.
This commit changes this support, so that the compiler itself only
generates simple intrinsics and leaves the real support to a compiler
pass that runs as one of the TinyGo-specific optimization passes.

The biggest change, that was done together with the rewrite, was support
for goroutines in WebAssembly for JavaScript. The challenge in
JavaScript is that in general no blocking operations are allowed, which
means that programs that call time.Sleep() but do not start goroutines
also have to be scheduled by the scheduler.
