This CL re-introduces useLHS because we don't want to suppress
correct "declared but not used" errors for variables that only
appear on the LHS of an assignment (using Checker.use would mark
them as used).
This CL also adjusts a couple of places where types2 differed
from go/types (and suppressed valid "declared and not used"
errors). Now those errors are surfaced. Adjusted a handful of
tests accordingly.

Agressively mark all LHS variables in assignments as used if there
is any error in the (entire) assignment. This reduces the number of
spurious "declared but not used" errors in programs that are invalid
in the first place. This behavior is closer to the behavior of the
compiler's original type checker (types1) and lets us remove lines
of the form "_ = variable" just to satisfy test cases. It also makes
more important errors visible by not crowding them out.
Remove the Checker.useLHS function and use Checker.use instead:
useLHS didn't evaluate top-level variables, but we actually want
them to be evaluated in an error scenario so that they are getting
used (and thus we don't get the "declared but not used" error).
Fixes#42937.

With this CL, the first ~500 errorcheck tests pass when running
go run run.go -v -G
in the $GOROOT/test directory (the log output includes a few dozen
tests that are currently skipped).

Keep left-to-right order when referring to the number of
variables and values involved.

See https://go-review.googlesource.com/#/c/38313/ for background.
It turns out that only a few tests checked for this.
The new error message is shorter and very clear.
