This adds the three functions from #56102 to the sync package. These
provide a convenient API for the most common uses of sync.Once.
The performance of these is comparable to direct use of sync.Once:
$ go test -run ^$ -bench OnceFunc\|OnceVal -count 20 | benchstat -row .name -col /v
goos: linux
goarch: amd64
pkg: sync
cpu: 11th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-1185G7 @ 3.00GHz
│ Once │ Global │ Local │
│ sec/op │ sec/op vs base │ sec/op vs base │
OnceFunc 1.3500n ± 6% 2.7030n ± 1% +100.22% (p=0.000 n=20) 0.3935n ± 0% -70.86% (p=0.000 n=20)
OnceValue 1.3155n ± 0% 2.7460n ± 1% +108.74% (p=0.000 n=20) 0.5478n ± 1% -58.35% (p=0.000 n=20)
The "Once" column represents the baseline of how code would typically
express these patterns using sync.Once. "Global" binds the closure
returned by OnceFunc/OnceValue to global, which is how I expect these
to be used most of the time. Currently, this defeats some inlining
opportunities, which roughly doubles the cost over sync.Once; however,
it's still *extremely* fast. Finally, "Local" binds the returned
closure to a local variable. This unlocks several levels of inlining
and represents pretty much the best possible case for these APIs, but
is also unlikely to happen in practice. In principle the compiler
could recognize that the global in the "Global" case is initialized in
place and never mutated and do the same optimizations it does in the
"Local" case, but it currently does not.

Long ago we decided that panic(nil) was too unlikely to bother
making a special case for purposes of recover. Unfortunately,
it has turned out not to be a special case. There are many examples
of code in the Go ecosystem where an author has written panic(nil)
because they want to panic and don't care about the panic value.
Using panic(nil) in this case has the unfortunate behavior of
making recover behave as though the goroutine isn't panicking.
As a result, code like:
func f() {
defer func() {
if err := recover(); err != nil {
log.Fatalf("panicked! %v", err)
}
}()
call1()
call2()
}
looks like it guarantees that call2 has been run any time f returns,
but that turns out not to be strictly true. If call1 does panic(nil),
then f returns "successfully", having recovered the panic, but
without calling call2.
Instead you have to write something like:
func f() {
done := false
defer func() {
if err := recover(); !done {
log.Fatalf("panicked! %v", err)
}
}()
call1()
call2()
done = true
}
which defeats nearly the whole point of recover. No one does this,
with the result that almost all uses of recover are subtly broken.
One specific broken use along these lines is in net/http, which
recovers from panics in handlers and sends back an HTTP error.
Users discovered in the early days of Go that panic(nil) was a
convenient way to jump out of a handler up to the serving loop
without sending back an HTTP error. This was a bug, not a feature.
Go 1.8 added panic(http.ErrAbortHandler) as a better way to access the feature.
Any lingering code that uses panic(nil) to abort an HTTP handler
without a failure message should be changed to use http.ErrAbortHandler.
Programs that need the old, unintended behavior from net/http
or other packages can set GODEBUG=panicnil=1 to stop the run-time error.
Uses of recover that want to detect panic(nil) in new programs
can check for recover returning a value of type *runtime.PanicNilError.
Because the new GODEBUG is used inside the runtime, we can't
import internal/godebug, so there is some new machinery to
cross-connect those in this CL, to allow a mutable GODEBUG setting.
That won't be necessary if we add any other mutable GODEBUG settings
in the future. The CL also corrects the handling of defaulted GODEBUG
values in the runtime, for #56986.
Fixes#25448.

CL 444277 fixed Time.UnmarshalText and Time.UnmarshalJSON to properly
unmarshal timestamps according to RFC 3339 instead of according
to Go's bespoke time syntax that is a superset of RFC 3339.
However, this change seems to have broken an AWS S3 unit test
that relies on parsing timestamps with single digit hours.
It is unclear whether S3 emits these timestamps in production or
whether this is simply a testing artifact that has been cargo culted
across many code bases. Either way, disable strict parsing for now
and re-enable later with better GODEBUG support.

The arena goexperiment contains code used inside Google in very
limited use cases that we will maintain, but the discussion on #51317
identified serious problems with the very idea of adding arenas to the
standard library. In particular the concept tends to infect many other
APIs in the name of efficiency, a bit like sync.Pool except more
publicly visible.
It is unclear when, if ever, we will pick up the idea and try to push
it forward into a public API, but it's not going to happen any time
soon, and we don't want users to start depending on it: it's a true
experiment and may be changed or deleted without warning.
The arena text in the release notes makes them seem more official
and supported than they really are, and we've already seen a couple
blog posts based on that erroneous belief. Delete the text to try to
set expectations better.
