This moves all scheduler code into a separate file that is only compiled
when there's a scheduler in use (the tasks or asyncify scheduler, which
are both cooperative). The main goal of this change is to make it easier
to add a new "scheduler" based on OS threads.
It also fixes a few subtle issues with `-gc=none`:
- Gosched() panicked. This is now fixed to just return immediately
(the only logical thing to do when there's only one goroutine).
- Timers aren't supported without a scheduler, but the relevant code
was still present and would happily add a timer to the queue. It
just never ran. So now it exits with a runtime error, similar to any
blocking operation.
With a few small modifications, all the problems with `-gc=precise` in
WebAssembly seem to have been fixed.
I didn't do any performance measurements, but this is supposed to
improve GC performance.
This change swaps the stack chain when switching goroutines, ensuring that the chain is maintained consistently.
This is only really currently necessary with asyncify on wasm.
This is a big change that will determine the stack size for many
goroutines automatically. Functions that aren't recursive and don't call
function pointers can in many cases have an automatically determined
worst case stack size. This is useful, as the stack size is usually much
lower than the previous hardcoded default of 1024 bytes: somewhere
around 200-500 bytes is common.
A side effect of this change is that the default stack sizes (including
the stack size for other architectures such as AVR) can now be changed
in the config JSON file, making it tunable per application.
