David Crawshaw cc158403d6 cmd/compile: track reflect.Type.Method in deadcode
In addition to reflect.Value.Call, exported methods can be invoked
by the Func value in the reflect.Method struct. This CL has the
compiler track what functions get access to a legitimate reflect.Method
struct by looking for interface calls to either of:

	Method(int) reflect.Method
	MethodByName(string) (reflect.Method, bool)

This is a little overly conservative. If a user implements a type
with one of these methods without using the underlying calls on
reflect.Type, the linker will assume the worst and include all
exported methods. But it's cheap.

No change to any of the binary sizes reported in cl/20483.

For #14740
