[release-branch.go1.15] cmd/cgo: use go:notinheap for anonymous structs
They can't reasonably be allocated on the heap. Not a huge deal, but it has an interesting and useful side effect. After CL 249917, the compiler and runtime treat pointers to go:notinheap types as uintptrs instead of real pointers (no write barrier, not processed during stack scanning, ...). That feature is exactly what we want for cgo to fix #40954. All the cases we have of pointers declared in C, but which might actually be filled with non-pointer data, are of this form (JNI's jobject heirarch, Darwin's CFType heirarchy, ...).
