Than McIntosh 6265ed7452 [dev.link] cmd/compile: emit fewer R_USETYPE relocations
Background: when compiling a function, it's possible that a local
variable will be optimized away, which could potentially degrade the
debugging experience if the compiler fails to emit DWARF information
for the variable's type. To mitigate this situation, the compiler
emits R_USETYPE relocations for the function's auto/param variables as
a signal to the linker to generate DWARF for the types in question,
even if the type is not specifically attached to a DWARF param or var.

This patch change the logic in the compiler to avoid emitting a
R_USETYPE relocation if the type in question is already referenced by
a concrete DWARF param or auto record. This cuts down on the amount of
work the linker has to do, also makes object files a bit smaller on
average (about 1% for the runtime package).
