Extend escape analysis to convT2E and conT2I. If the interface value
does not escape supply runtime with a stack buffer for the object copy.
This is a straight port from .c to .go of Dmitry's patch

Some type assertions of the form _, ok := i.(T) allow efficient inlining.
Such type assertions commonly show up in type switches.
For example, with this optimization, using 6g, the length of
encoding/binary's intDataSize function shrinks from 2224 to 1728 bytes (-22%).

Consider an interface value i of type I and concrete value c of type C.
Prior to this CL, i==c was evaluated as
I(c) == i
Evaluating I(c) can allocate.
This CL changes the evaluation of i==c to
x, ok := i.(C); ok && x == c
The new generated code is shorter and does not allocate directly.
If C is small, as it is in every instance in the stdlib,
the new code also uses less stack space
and makes one runtime call instead of two.
If C is very large, the original implementation is used.
The cutoff for "very large" is 1<<16,
following the stack vs heap cutoff used elsewhere.
This kind of comparison occurs in 38 places in the stdlib,
mostly in the net and os packages.
