cmd/compile: avoid "not used" errors due to bad go/defer statements
The syntax for go and defer specifies an arbitrary expression, not
a call; the call requirement is spelled out in prose. Don't to the
call check in the parser; instead move it to the type checker. This
is simpler and also allows the type checker to check expressions that
are not calls, and avoid "not used" errors due to such expressions.
We would like to make the same change in go/parser and go/types
but the change requires Go/DeferStmt nodes to hold an ast.Expr
rather than an *ast.CallExpr. We cannot change that for backward-
compatibility reasons. Since we don't test this behavior for the
type checkers alone (only for the compiler), we get away with it
for now.
Follow-up on CL 425675 which introduced the extra errors in the
first place.
