encoding/gob: remove unsafe, use reflection.

This removes a major unsafe thorn in our side, a perennial obstacle
to clean garbage collection.
Not coincidentally: In cleaning this up, several bugs were found,
including code that reached inside by-value interfaces to create
pointers for pointer-receiver methods. Unsafe code is just as
advertised.

Performance of course suffers, but not too badly. The Pipe number
is more indicative, since it's doing I/O that simulates a network
connection. Plus these are end-to-end, so each end suffers
only half of this pain.

The edit is pretty much a line-by-line conversion, with a few
simplifications and a couple of new tests. There may be more
performance to gain.

BenchmarkEndToEndByteBuffer     2493          3033          +21.66%
BenchmarkEndToEndPipe           4953          5597          +13.00%

Fixes issue 5159.
