Alan Donovan 932a4a4bef go/types: add Var.Kind() VarKind method
This CL adds an enum type, VarKind, that discriminates among
the various kinds of Var, and adds setter/getter methods
for Var's kind field.

Beware: NewVar has a weaker postcondition: the Var objects it
returns are not completely initialized and require a call to
Var.SetKind. This should only affect importers.

No changes are needed to the export data, since the kind can
always be deduced from the context when decoding.

See CL 645656 for the corresponding x/tools changes.

+ test, relnote, API
