Robert Findley c78a267bd4 go/types: return an error from Instantiate on incorrect len(targs)
Instantiate already returns an error when validation fails. Panicking on
an incorrect number of type arguments means that callers must both
pre-validate the number of type arguments and handle resulting errors.
Returning an error rather than panicking allows eliminating
pre-validation at the call-site.

Also update the Instantiate docstring to correct some stale/inaccurate
information, and to clarify its behavior more precisely.

Updates #47916
