spec: clarify what is considered a function call for len/cap special case
gccgo considers built-in function calls returning a constant not as function call (issue 7386) go/types considers any call (regular or built-in) as a function call The wording and examples clarify that only "function calls" that are issued at run-time (and thus do not result in a constant result) are considered function calls in this case. gc is inconsistent (issue 7385) gccgo already interprets the spec accordingly and issue 7386 is moot. go/types considers all calls (constant or not) as function calls (issue 7457). Fixes #7387. Fixes #7386. LGTM=r, rsc, iant R=r, rsc, iant, ken CC=golang-codereviews https://golang.org/cl/66860046
