Daniel Martí 9ce87a63b9 cmd/compile: typecheck types and funcs before consts
This way, once the constant declarations are typechecked, all named
types are fully typechecked and have all of their methods added.

Usually this isn't important, as methods and interfaces cannot be used
in constant declarations. However, it can lead to confusing and
incorrect errors, such as:

	$ cat f.go
	package p

	type I interface{ F() }
	type T struct{}

	const _ = I(T{})

	func (T) F() {}
	$ go build f.go
	./f.go:6:12: cannot convert T literal (type T) to type I:
		T does not implement I (missing F method)

The error is clearly wrong, as T does have an F method. If we ensure
that all funcs are typechecked before all constant declarations, we get
the correct error:

	$ go build f2.go
	# command-line-arguments
	./f.go:6:7: const initializer I(T literal) is not a constant

Fixes #24755.
