typecheckdef used to be used to handle references to package-level
declarations that hadn't yet been typechecked yet. It's no longer
needed, as the current IR frontends construct package-level
declarations with proper types upfront.
Exception: this code is still used for compiler-generated function
declarations, so that code needs to be kept. Eventually that code can
be moved elsewhere, but for now this CL makes it obvious that the rest
of the code paths really are unused.
Updates #51691.
