cmd/compile/internal/walk: use global zeroVal in interface conversions for zero values

This is a small-ish adjustment to the change earlier in our
stack in CL 649555, which started creating read-only global storage
for a composite literal used in an interface conversion and setting
the interface data pointer to point to that global storage.

In some cases, there are execution-time performance benefits to point
to runtime.zeroVal in particular. In reflect, pointer checks against
the runtime.zeroVal memory address are used to side-step some work,
such as in reflect.Value.Set and reflect.Value.IsZero.

In this CL, we therefore dig up the zeroVal symbol, and we use the
machinery from earlier in our stack to use a pointer to zeroVal for
the interface data pointer if we see examples like:

    sink = S{}
or:
    s := S{}
    sink = s

CL 649076 (also earlier in our stack) added most of the tests
along with debug diagnostics in convert.go to make it easier
to test this change.

We add a benchmark in reflect to show examples of performance benefit.
The left column is our immediately prior CL 649555, and the right is
this CL. (The arrays of structs here do not seem to benefit, which
we attempt to address in our next CL).

Finally, here are results from the benchmark example from #71323.
Note however that almost all the benefit shown here is from our earlier
CL 649555, which is a more general purpose change and eliminates
the allocation using a different read-only global than this CL.
