Since generated names now have their package names prefixed, the
extra prefix, "Go", is both confusing and counter-productive to
making the generated ObjC code look like any other native code.
Change the default to the empty prefix, while preserving support
for an explicit prefix if needed.
This is a backwards incompatible change; to keep the old behaviour,
specify "-prefix Go" to the gobind or gomobile command.
While we're here, fix the Ivy example for the recent change in
error returns.

Since the Go package name is already prefixed to generated ObjC
names, the empty extra prefix is useful. Support that by not reverting
to the default extra prefix, "Go", if -prefix "" is specified.
To avoid file name clashes with the Go header files, add ".objc" to
the ObjC-facing header names.

The seq serialization machinery is a historic artifact from when Go
mobile code had to run in a separate process. Now that Go code is running
in-process, replace the explicit serialization with direct calls and pass
arguments on the stack.
The benefits are a much smaller bind runtime, much less garbage (and, in
Java, fewer objects with finalizers), less argument copying, and faster
cross-language calls.
The cost is a more complex generator, because some of the work from the
bind runtime is moved to generated code. Generated code now handles
conversion between Go and Java/ObjC types, multiple return values and memory
management of byte slice and string arguments.
To overcome the lack of calling C code between Go packages, all bound
packages now end up in the same (fake) package, "gomobile_bind", instead of
separate packages (go_<pkgname>). To avoid name clashes, the package name is
added as a prefix to generated functions and types.
Also, don't copy byte arrays passed to Go, saving call time and
allowing read([]byte)-style interfaces to foreign callers (#12113).
Finally, add support for nil interfaces and struct pointers to objc.
This is a large CL, but most of the changes stem from changing testdata.
The full benchcmp output on the CL/20095 benchmarks on my Nexus 5 is
reproduced below. Note that the savings for the JavaSlice* benchmarks are
skewed because byte slices are no longer copied before passing them to Go.
