cmd/compile,runtime: redo growslice calling convention

Instead of passing the original length and the new length, pass
the new length and the length increment. Also use the new length
in all the post-growslice calculations so that the original length
is dead and does not need to be spilled/restored around the growslice.

old: growslice(typ, oldPtr, oldLen, oldCap, newLen) (newPtr, newLen, newCap)
new: growslice(oldPtr, newLen, oldCap, inc, typ) (newPtr, newLen, newCap)

where inc = # of elements added = newLen-oldLen

Also move the element type to the end of the call. This makes register
allocation more efficient, as oldPtr and newPtr can often be in the
same register (e.g. AX on amd64) and thus the phi takes no instructions.

Makes the go binary 0.3% smaller.
