go/internal/gcimporter: rewrite interface receiver parameters

For a type definition like `type I interface{ M() }`, the go/types API
traditionally sets `M`'s receiver parameter type to `I`, whereas
Unified IR was (intentionally) leaving it as `interface{ M() }`.

I still think `interface{ M() }` is the more consistent and
semantically correct type to use in this scenario, but I concede that
users want `I` instead, as evidenced by existing tooling and tests.

Updates #49906.
