Top-Byte-Ignore (TBI) is a feature on all ARMv8.0 CPUs that causes the top byte
of virtual addresses to be ignored on loads and stores. Instead, bit 55 is
extended over bits 56-63 before address translation. This feature allows use of
the (ignored) top byte as a tag or for other in-band metadata.
In Linux, brk()/mmap()/mremap() syscalls don't untag addresses. More details
are in dcde237319e6 ("mm: Avoid creating virtual address aliases in
brk()/mmap()/mremap()")

This CL does the following:
- Add the ability for nested locks to have names.
- Give names to all current uses of nested locks in the codebase.
- Truncate `lockdep` debug stack traces to avoid the clutter from the
`lockdep` code itself
- Simplify `lockdep` to not longer require `classMap`.

Removes package syserror and moves still relevant code to either linuxerr
or to syserr (to be later removed).
Internal errors are converted from random types to *errors.Error types used
in linuxerr. Internal errors are in linuxerr/internal.go.

This change makes the checklocks analyzer considerable more powerful, adding:
* The ability to traverse complex structures, e.g. to have multiple nested
fields as part of the annotation.
* The ability to resolve simple anonymous functions and closures, and perform
lock analysis across these invocations. This does not apply to closures that
are passed elsewhere, since it is not possible to know the context in which
they might be invoked.
* The ability to annotate return values in addition to receivers and other
parameters, with the same complex structures noted above.
* Ignoring locking semantics for "fresh" objects, i.e. objects that are
allocated in the local frame (typically a new-style function).
* Sanity checking of locking state across block transitions and returns, to
ensure that no unexpected locks are held.
Note that initially, most of these findings are excluded by a comprehensive
nogo.yaml. The findings that are included are fundamental lock violations.
The changes here should be relatively low risk, minor refactorings to either
include necessary annotations to simplify the code structure (in general
removing closures in favor of methods) so that the analyzer can be easily
track the lock state.
This change additional includes two changes to nogo itself:
* Sanity checking of all types to ensure that the binary and ast-derived
types have a consistent objectpath, to prevent the bug above from occurring
silently (and causing much confusion). This also requires a trick in
order to ensure that serialized facts are consumable downstream. This can
be removed with https://go-review.googlesource.com/c/tools/+/331789 merged.
* A minor refactoring to isolation the objdump settings in its own package.
This was originally used to implement the sanity check above, but this
information is now being passed another way. The minor refactor is preserved
however, since it cleans up the code slightly and is minimal risk.

Update all instances of the above errors to the faster linuxerr implementation.
With the temporary linuxerr.Equals(), no logical changes are made.
PiperOrigin-RevId: 382306655
Remove three syserror entries duplicated in linuxerr. Because of the
linuxerr.Equals method, this is a mere change of return values from
syserror to linuxerr definitions.
Done with only these three errnos as CLs removing all grow to a significantly
large size.

The presence of multiple packages in a single directory sometimes
confuses `go mod`, producing output like:

Split usermem package to help remove syserror dependency in go_marshal.
New hostarch package contains code not dependent on syserror.
PiperOrigin-RevId: 365651233
The syscall package has been deprecated in favor of golang.org/x/sys.
Note that syscall is still used in the following places:
- pkg/sentry/socket/hostinet/stack.go: some netlink related functionalities
are not yet available in golang.org/x/sys.
- syscall.Stat_t is still used in some places because os.FileInfo.Sys() still
returns it and not unix.Stat_t.

Because the abi will depend on the core types for marshalling (usermem,
context, safemem, safecopy), these need to be flattened from the sentry
directory. These packages contain no sentry-specific details.

* Rename syncutil to sync.
* Add aliases to sync types.
* Replace existing usage of standard library sync package.
This will make it easier to swap out synchronization primitives. For example,
this will allow us to use primitives from github.com/sasha-s/go-deadlock to
check for lock ordering violations.
