Josh Bleecher Snyder 0bc94a8864 cmd/compile: when inlining ==, don’t take the address of the values
This CL reworks walkcompare for clarity and concision.
It also makes one significant functional change.
(The functional change is hard to separate cleanly
from the cleanup, so I just did them together.)
When inlining and unrolling an equality comparison
for a small struct or array, compare the elements like:

a[0] == b[0] && a[1] == b[1]

rather than

pa := &a
pb := &b
pa[0] == pb[0] && pa[1] == pb[1]

The result is the same, but taking the address
and working through the indirect
forces the backends to generate less efficient code.

This is only an improvement with the SSA backend.
However, every port but s390x now has a working
SSA backend, and switching to the SSA backend
by default everywhere is a priority for Go 1.8.
It thus seems reasonable to start to prioritize
SSA performance over the old backend.

Updates #15303


Sample code:

type T struct {
	a, b int8
}

func g(a T) bool {
	return a == T{1, 2}
}
