This makes the leaking GC (-gc=leaking) ready for multithreading. The leaking GC is the easiest real heap allocator to add support for, since it can increment the heap pointer with a simple atomic add operation.
This PR does not actually make the leaking GC support multithreading, but it makes it very easy to do so in the future simply by changing the new llsync package (see #4559).

This is the first PR of (hopefully) a bunch to follow that will gradually add support for multithreading to various parts of TinyGo. I split it in many pieces to make it hopefully easier to review.

This PR is intended to be merged by rebasing.

Note: not super convinced about the "llsync" name (meaning "low level sync"). Others I have considered: "sync" (can be confused by the stdlib sync package), "atomic" (same), "futex" (there's more in there than just futexes), "mutex" (it's more than mutexes), "internalsync" (too long), etc.
Please let me know if you can think of a better name!

This adds some non-atomic types that have the same interface as the ones
in sync/atomic.

We currently don't need these to be atomic (because the scheduler is
entirely cooperative), but once we add support for a scheduler with
multiple threads and/or preemptive scheduling we can trivially add some
type aliases under a different build tag in the future when real
atomicity is needed for threading.
This uses the internal/llsync package to convert some non-atomic
operations to pseudo-atomic operations that will become truly atomic on
systems that need this (such as multicore chips and when we implement
true parallelism on Linux).

Actually I realized I'd like to be able to use these synchronization primitives inside the internal/task package and some synchronization primitives (such as the pseudo-futex for the non-threaded scheduler) need internal/task. So that's going to be a circular dependency. Therefore I've moved the new stuff into the internal/task package as well, to simplify things.
Also, putting them there does make some sense: these primitives depend on which kind of scheduler (and therefore which kind of task) is in use.

This nicely sidesteps the naming question :)
