runtime: make morestack less subtle
morestack writes the context pointer to gobuf.ctxt, but since morestack is written in assembly (and has to be very careful with state), it does *not* invoke the requisite write barrier for this write. Instead, we patch this up later, in newstack, where we invoke an explicit write barrier for ctxt. This already requires some subtle reasoning, and it's going to get a lot hairier with the hybrid barrier. Fix this by simplifying the whole mechanism. Instead of writing gobuf.ctxt in morestack, just pass the value of the context register to newstack and let it write it to gobuf.ctxt. This is a normal Go pointer write, so it gets the normal Go write barrier. No subtle reasoning required. Updates #17503.
