Implementation details.

Cgo provides a way for Go programs to call C code linked into the same
address space. This comment explains the operation of cgo.

Cgo reads a set of Go source files and looks for statements saying
import "C". If the import has a doc comment, that comment is
taken as literal C code to be used as a preamble to any C code

as a numeric constant: <code>\x</code> followed by exactly two hexadecimal
digits; <code>\u</code> followed by exactly four hexadecimal digits;
<code>\U</code> followed by exactly eight hexadecimal digits, and a
plain backslash <code>\</code> followed by exactly three octal digits.
In each case the value of the literal is the value represented by
the digits in the corresponding base.

The precise details are relevant for Go implementations,
affect the specifics of error messages (such as whether
a compiler reports a type inference or other error),
and may explain why type inference fails in unusual code situations.
But by and large these rules can be ignored when writing Go code:
type inference is designed to mostly "work as expected",
