checklinkname: rudimentary type-checking of linkname directives
This CL introduces a 'checklinkname' analyzer, which provides rudimentary type-checking that verifies that function signatures on the local and remote sides of //go:linkname directives match expected values. If the Go standard library changes the definitions of any of these function, checklinkname will flag the change as a finding, providing an error informing the gVisor team to adapt to the upstream changes. This allows us to eliminate the majority of gVisor's forward-looking negative build tags, as we can catch mismatches in testing [1]. The remaining forward-looking negative build tags are covering shared struct definitions, which I hope to add to checklinkname in a future CL. [1] Of course, semantics/requirements can change without the signature changing, so we still must be careful, but this covers the common case. PiperOrigin-RevId: 387873847
