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 are three generators that currently call this method:
A -> B
(1) go -> java
(2) go -> objective-c
(3) go -> go
As discussed below, we only substitute for invalid unicode characters
in case (1).
**Case 1**
Go:
From golang.org/ref/spec:
Identifiers name program entities such as variables and types.
An identifier is a sequence of one or more letters and digits(unicode_digit).
The first character in an identifier must be a letter(unicode_letter | "_" ).
Java:
From https://docs.oracle.com/javase/specs/jls/se7/html/jls-3.html#jls-3.8
`The "Java letters" include uppercase and lowercase ASCII Latin letters
A-Z (\u0041-\u005a), and a-z (\u0061-\u007a), and, for historical reasons,
the ASCII underscore (_, or \u005f) and dollar sign ($, or \u0024). The $
character should be used only in mechanically generated source code or,
rarely, to access pre-existing names on legacy systems.`
Therefore, Go's identifiers are checked in case they break these Java rules.
**Case 2**
There is no objective-c standard specification for valid identifiers.
From some testing it seems that Go and objective-c have identical
valid identifier rules.
**Case 3**
Requires no checking.

CL 24800 changed the error representation from strings to objects.
However, since native errors types are not immediately compatible
across languages, wrapper types were introduced to bridge the gap.
This CL remove those wrappers and instead special case the error
proxy types to conform to their language error protocol.
Specifically:
- The ObjC proxy for Go errors now extends NSError and calls
initWithDomain to store the error message.
- The Go proxy for ObjC NSError return the localizedDescription
property for calls to Error.
- The Java proxy for Go errors ow extends Exception and
overrides getMessage() to return the error message.
- The Go proxy for Java Exceptions returns getMessage whenever
Error is called.
The end result is that error values behave more like normal objects
across the language boundary. In particular, instance identity is
now preserved: an error passed across the boundary and back will
result in the same instance.
There are two semantic changes that followed this change:
- The domain for wrapped Go errors is now always "go".
The domain wasn't useful before this CL: the domains were set to
the package name of function or method where the error happened
to cross the language boundary.
- If a Go method that returns an error is implemented in ObjC, the
implementation must now both return NO _and_ set the error result
for the calling Go code to receive a non-nil error.
Before this CL, because errors were always wrapped, a nil ObjC
could be represented with a non-nil wrapper.

Gobind uses strings for passing errors across the language barrier.
However, since Gobind doesn't have a concept of a nil string, it
can't separate an empty native string from a nil string.
In turn, that means that empty errors, exceptions or NSError * with
an empty description are treated as no error. With ObjC, empty errors
are replaced with a default string to workaround the issue, while
with Java empty errors are silently ignored.
Fix this by replacing strings with actual error objects, wrapping
the Go error, Java Throwable or ObjC NSError *, and letting the
existing bind machinery take care of passing the references across.
It's a large change for a small corner case, but I believe objects
are a better fit for exception that strings. Error objects also
naturally leads to future additions, for example accessing the
exception class name or chained exception.

Multiple packages are already supported, but only as if each packages
were bound in isolation. This CL lets a bound package refer to other
bound packages in its exported functions, types and fields.
In Java, the JNI class jclass and constructor jmethodID are exported
so other packages can construct proxies of other packages' interfaces.
In ObjC, the class @interface declarations are moved from the package
.m file to its .h file to allow other packages to constructs its
interface proxies.
Add a supporting test package, secondpkg, and add Java and ObjC tests
for the new cross package functionality. Also add simplepkg for
testing corner cases where the generated Go file must not include its
bound package.
While we're here, stop generating Go proxy types for struct types;
only Go interfaces can be implemented in the foreign language.

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.
