Part of a series of changes that will end with prohibiting use of sync/atomic
(u)int32 functions. See cl/440484071 for more details.

All atomic 64 bit ints are changed to atomicbitops.(Ui|I)nt64. A nogo checker
enforces that sync/atomic 64 bit functions are not called.
For reviewers: the interesting changes are in the atomicbitops and checkaligned
packages.
Why do this?
- It is very easy to accidentally use atomic values without sync/atomic funcs.
- We have checkatomics, but this is optional and is forgotten in several places.
- Using a type+checker to enforce this seems less error prone and simpler.
- We get NoCopy protection.
- Use of 64 bit atomics can break 32 bit builds. We have types to handle this
without any runtime cost, so we might as well use them.

AlignedAtomicUint64 is 15 bytes and it takes 16 bytes in structures. On
32-bit systems, variables and structure fields is guaranteed to be
32-bit aligned and this means that we need only 12 bytes to find 8
contiguous bytes.
