cmd/go: name temporary binary after first file in 'go run'
No one likes 'a.out' anymore.  It appears in ps and top while
the program is running.

Comment 1:

Note that this is not completely trivial.  Using a.out means that we avoid conflicts
with the import path-named archives that coexist in that temporary directory, unless
they begin with "a.out/" in violation of the 'use a name you own' rule.
Switching to the basename of the first Go file probably means we have to make a separate
directory to hold that object.

This is nice. When running go run ../test/run.go, top will show the names of the
bugs/issues as it progresses.
