Robert Griesemer 0807986fe6 go/types, types2: correctly consider ~ (tilde) in constraint type inference
When doing constraint type inference, we must consider whether the
constraint's core type is precise (no tilde) or imprecise (tilde,
or not a single specific type). In the latter case, we cannot infer
an unknown type argument from the (imprecise) core type because there
are infinitely many possible types. For instance, given

        [E ~byte]

if we don't know E, we cannot infer that E must be byte (it could be
myByte, etc.). On the other hand, if we do know the type argument,
say for S in this example:

        [S ~[]E, E any]

we must consider the underlying type of S when matching against ~[]E
because we have a tilde.

Because constraint type inference may infer type arguments that were
not eligible initially (because they were unknown and the core type
is imprecise), we must iterate the process until nothing changes any-
more. For instance, given

        [S ~[]E, M ~map[string]S, E any]

where we initially only know the type argument for M, we must ignore
S (and E) at first. After one iteration of constraint type inference,
S is known at which point we can infer E as well.

The change is large-ish but the actual functional changes are small:

- There's a new method "unknowns" to determine the number of as of yet
  unknown type arguments.

- The adjCoreType function has been adjusted to also return tilde
  and single-type information. This is now conveniently returned
  as (*term, bool), and the function has been renamed to coreTerm.

- The original constraint type inference loop has been adjusted to
  consider tilde information.

- This adjusted original constraint type inference loop has been
  nested in another loop for iteration, together with some minimal
  logic to control termination.

The remaining changes are modifications to tests:

- There's a substantial new test for this issue.

- Several existing test cases were adjusted to accomodate the
  fact that they inferred incorrect types: tildes have been
  removed throughout. Most of these tests are for pathological
  cases.

- A couple of tests were adjusted where there was a difference
  between the go/types and types2 version.

Fixes #51229.
