go/types: better error when assigning to struct field in map

Identify this assignment case and instead of the more general error

    prog.go:6: cannot assign to students["sally"].age (value of type int)

produce

    prog.go:6: cannot directly assign to struct field students["sally"].age in map

that explains why the assignment is not possible. Used ExprString
instead of String of operand since the type of the field is not relevant
to the error.

Updates #13779.
