<title>runtime: use RtlGenRandom instead of CryptGenRandom</title>

<id>db82cf4e506938a36a57a64dbe1f79eb0365ea89</id>
<content type='text'>
This change replaces the use of CryptGenRandom with RtlGenRandom in
Windows to generate cryptographically random numbers during process
startup. RtlGenRandom uses the same RNG as CryptGenRandom, but it has many
fewer DLL dependencies and so does not affect process startup time as
much.

This makes running simple Go program on my computers faster.

This reverts commit ab4c9298b8185a056ff1152f2c7bd9b38d3d06f3.

Sysmon critically depends on system timer resolution for retaking
of Ps blocked in system calls. See #14790 for an example
of a program where execution time goes from 2ms to 30ms if
timeBeginPeriod(1) is not used.

We can remove timeBeginPeriod(1) when we support UMS (#7876).

Update #14790

<title>runtime: change osyield to use Windows SwitchToThread</title>

It appears that windows osyield is just 15ms sleep on my computer
(see benchmarks below). Replace NtWaitForSingleObject in osyield
with SwitchToThread (as suggested by Dmitry).

Also add issue #14790 related benchmarks, so we can track perfomance
changes in CL 20834 and CL 20835 and beyond.

<title>runtime, syscall: only search for Windows DLLs in the System32 directory</title>

Make sure that for any DLL that Go uses itself, we only look for the
DLL in the Windows System32 directory, guarding against DLL preloading
attacks.

(Unless the Windows version is ancient and LoadLibraryEx is
unavailable, in which case the user probably has bigger security
problems anyway.)

This does not change the behavior of syscall.LoadLibrary or NewLazyDLL
if the DLL name is something unused by Go itself.

This change also intentionally does not add any new API surface. Instead,
x/sys is updated with a LoadLibraryEx function and LazyDLL.Flags in:
    https://golang.org/cl/21388

This is a subset of https://golang.org/cl/20022 with only the copyright
header lines, so the next CL will be smaller and more reviewable.

Go policy has been single space after periods in comments for some time.

The copyright header template at:

    https://golang.org/doc/contribute.html#copyright

also uses a single space.

Make them all consistent.

Now there are just three programs to compile instead of many,
and repeated tests can reuse the compilation result instead of
rebuilding it.

Combined, these changes reduce the time spent testing runtime
during all.bash on my laptop from about 60 to about 30 seconds.
(All.bash itself runs in 5½ minutes.)

For #10571.

<pre>
Now there are just three programs to compile instead of many,
and repeated tests can reuse the compilation result instead of
rebuilding it.

Combined, these changes reduce the time spent testing runtime
during all.bash on my laptop from about 60 to about 30 seconds.
(All.bash itself runs in 5½ minutes.)

For #10571.

Calling timeBeginPeriod changes Windows global timer resolution
from 15ms to 1ms. This used to improve Go runtime scheduler
performance, but not anymore. Thanks to @aclements, scheduler now
behaves the same way if we call timeBeginPeriod or not.

Remove call to timeBeginPeriod, since it is machine global
resource, and there are downsides of using low timer resolution.
See issue #8687 for details.

Fixes #8687
