Dan Scales 8e6dfe1b31 [dev.typeparams] cmd/compile: export/import of recursive generic types.
Deal with export/import of recursive generic types. This includes
typeparams which have bounds that reference the typeparam.

There are three main changes:

  - Change export/import of typeparams to have an implicit "declaration"
    (doDecl). We need to do a declaration of typeparams (via the
    typeparam's package and unique name), because it may be referenced
    within its bound during its own definition.

  - We delay most of the processing of the Instantiate call until we
    finish the creation of the top-most type (similar to the way we
    delay CheckSize). This is because we can't do the full instantiation
    properly until the base type is fully defined (with methods). The
    functions delayDoInst() and resumeDoInst() delay and resume the
    processing of the instantiations.

  - To do the full needed type substitutions for type instantiations
    during import, I had to separate out the type subster in stencil.go
    and move it to subr.go in the typecheck package. The subster in
    stencil.go now does node substitution and makes use of the type
    subster to do type substitutions.

Notable other changes:
 - In types/builtins.go, put the newly defined typeparam for a union type
   (related to use of real/imag, etc.) in the current package, rather
   than the builtin package, so exports/imports work properly.

 - In types2, allowed NewTypeParam() to be called with a nil bound, and
   allow setting the bound later. (Needed to import a typeparam whose
   bound refers to the typeparam itself.)

 - During import of typeparams in types2 (importer/import.go), we need
   to keep an index of the typeparams by their package and unique name
   (with id). Use a new map typParamIndex[] for that. Again, this is
   needed to deal with typeparams whose bounds refer to the typeparam
   itself.

 - Added several new tests absdiffimp.go and orderedmapsimp.go. Some of
   the orderemapsimp tests are commented out for now, because there are
   some issues with closures inside instantiations (relating to unexported
   names of closure structs).

 - Renamed some typeparams in test value.go to make them all T (to make
   typeparam uniqueness is working fine).
