Changes literal obfuscation such that literals of any size will be obfuscated, but beyond
maxSizewe only use the simple obfuscator. This one seems to apply one of the AND, OR or XOR operators byte-wise and should be safe to use.The test for literals is changed a bit to verify that obfuscation is applied. The code written to the
extra_literals.gofile by the test helper now creates aninitfunction withPrintfstatements inside. This way Go does not optimize the literals away when we compile. We also append a unique string to all literals so that we can test that an unobfuscated build contains this string while an obfuscated build does not.
