We may revisit this decision in a future release. By disallowing this
for Go 1.18 we are ensuring that we don't lock in the generics design
in a place that may need to change later. (Type declarations are the
primary construct where it crucially matters what the underlying type
of a type parameter is.)
Comment out all tests that rely on this feature; add comments referring
to issue so we can find all places easily should we change our minds.
Fixes#45639.

We don't usually reformat the test directory, but all of the files in
test/typeparam are syntactically valid. I suspect the misformattings
here are because developers aren't re-installing gofmt with
-tags=typeparams, not intentionally exercising non-standard
formatting.

Deal with export/import of recursive generic types. This includes
typeparams which have bounds that reference the typeparam.
There are three main changes:
- Change export/import of typeparams to have an implicit "declaration"
(doDecl). We need to do a declaration of typeparams (via the
typeparam's package and unique name), because it may be referenced
within its bound during its own definition.
- We delay most of the processing of the Instantiate call until we
finish the creation of the top-most type (similar to the way we
delay CheckSize). This is because we can't do the full instantiation
properly until the base type is fully defined (with methods). The
functions delayDoInst() and resumeDoInst() delay and resume the
processing of the instantiations.
- To do the full needed type substitutions for type instantiations
during import, I had to separate out the type subster in stencil.go
and move it to subr.go in the typecheck package. The subster in
stencil.go now does node substitution and makes use of the type
subster to do type substitutions.
Notable other changes:
- In types/builtins.go, put the newly defined typeparam for a union type
(related to use of real/imag, etc.) in the current package, rather
than the builtin package, so exports/imports work properly.
- In types2, allowed NewTypeParam() to be called with a nil bound, and
allow setting the bound later. (Needed to import a typeparam whose
bound refers to the typeparam itself.)
- During import of typeparams in types2 (importer/import.go), we need
to keep an index of the typeparams by their package and unique name
(with id). Use a new map typParamIndex[] for that. Again, this is
needed to deal with typeparams whose bounds refer to the typeparam
itself.
- Added several new tests absdiffimp.go and orderedmapsimp.go. Some of
the orderemapsimp tests are commented out for now, because there are
some issues with closures inside instantiations (relating to unexported
names of closure structs).
- Renamed some typeparams in test value.go to make them all T (to make
typeparam uniqueness is working fine).

Did a mix of tilde and non-tilde usage. Tilde notation is not quite
fully functional, so no tests are currently trying to distinguish
(fail/not fail) based on tilde usage.

For Builtin ops, we currently stay with using the old
typechecker to transform the call to a more specific expression
and possibly use more specific ops. However, for a bunch of the
ops, we delay calling the old typechecker if any of the args have
type params, for a variety of reasons.
In the near future, we will start creating separate functions that do
the same transformations as the old typechecker for calls, builtins,
indexing, comparisons, etc. These functions can then be called at noder
time for nodes with no type params, and at stenciling time for nodes
with type params.
Remove unnecessary calls to types1 typechecker for most kinds of
statements (still need it for SendStmt, AssignStmt, ReturnStmt, and
SelectStmt). In particular, we don't need it for RangeStmt, and this
avoids some complaints by the types1 typechecker on generic code.
Other small changes:
- Fix check on whether to delay calling types1-typechecker on type
conversions. Should check if HasTParam is true, rather than if the
type is directly a TYPEPARAM.
- Don't call types1-typechecker on an indexing operation if the left
operand has a typeparam in its type and is not obviously a TMAP,
TSLICE, or TARRAY. As above, we will eventually have to create a new
function that can do the required transformations (for complicated
cases) at noder time or stenciling time.
- Copy n.BuiltinOp in subster.node()
- The complex arithmetic example in absdiff.go now works.
- Added new tests double.go and append.go
- Added new example with a new() call in settable.go

Deal with cases like: 'type P[T any] T' (used to add methods to an
arbitrary type T), In this case, P[T] has kind types.TTYPEPARAM (as does
T itself), but requires more code to substitute than a simple TTYPEPARAM
T. See the comment near the beginning of subster.typ() in stencil.go.
Add new test absdiff.go. This test has a case for complex types (which
I've commented out) that will only work when we deal better with Go
builtins in generic functions (like real and imag).
Remove change in fmt.go for TTYPEPARAMS that is no longer needed (since
all TTYPEPARAMS have a sym) and was sometimes causing an extra prefix
when formatting method names.
Separate out the setting of a TTYPEPARAM bound, since it can reference
the TTYPEPARAM being defined, so must be done separately. Also, we don't
currently (and may not ever) need bounds after types2 typechecking.
