Stub out reflect.New and reflect.Zero

[tomelm]

This stubs out reflect.Zero and reflect.New. I believe this worked since the errors relating to these two functions went away when I tried to compile my project. Unfortunately I can't get make test running on my laptop so I can't run the full test suite. I'm going to try to get tiny-go setup on my other computer and see if I have better luck there.

Opening for now in case folks have any feedback on the PR or advice!

This looks good, will merge after #386 has been merged.

Unfortunately I can't get make test running on my laptop so I can't run the full test suite.

What OS do you have? On some systems (Debian/Ubuntu and macOS) you can run go test and it'll use the system-installed LLVM. Also, in theory if make works, make test should work as well (otherwise there is a bug).

I'm on macOS. I tried a handful of different things based on some Googling, including try to run go test directly, but had no luck: https://gist.github.com/tomelm/5ab50638a1cf1ac11cc1591f5cb38529

If that looks like a bug happy to open an issue, I had sort of figured it might've been my machine.

Have you tried just running go test -v, with no other flags/args?
go test -tags byollvm will fail because then you have to pass all the CGO_CFLAGS etc manually as environment variables.
go test ./... will fail because it will try to run tests of packages meant to be compiled with tinygo and not go: the source tree contains many directories with Go source files that cannot be compiled as they must be compiled with tinygo (mostly unrelated: a tinygo test is being worked on in #243).

Merged in 1047c9b. Thank you!

[tomelm]

I haven't tried go test -v yet! I'll try that in the next few days when I can get some time to do that.

[tomelm]

Looks all I needed was go test -v like you suggested. I saw a handful of main_test.go:168: failed to run: exec: "qemu-system-arm": executable file not found in $PATH but those seems to unrelated.

[aykevl]

Yes, looks like go test is working. The error you're getting simply means that you don't have QEMU installed which is needed for some tests.
