go/types: update operand types early
For expressions where the result type is independent
of the argument types (comparisons, conversions, rhs
of shifts), set the final expression types for those
subtrees early.
This fixes several bugs where incorrect lhs shift
operands where used (say in a comparison), but were
not reported.
Together with the changes listed below this CL fixes
many type-checker bugs.
Also:
- better documented updateExprType
- added larger comment to expr.go explaining
the basic expression checking algorithm
- use latest definition for indices and make
arguments; use the same code to check both
- use the same mechanism for cycle detection
in constant expressions as for variables
(new field Constant.visited)
- more tests for complex and make builtins
- many more and systematic tests for shifts;
moved them into separate testfile
- in the testing code, don't compare the
expected error pattern against itself
(the actual message was always ignored...)
- fix affected error patterns in the test files
- various cleanups along the way
