[release-branch.go1.14] runtime: make typehash match compiler generated hashes exactly
If typehash (used by reflect) does not match the built-in map's hash,
then problems occur. If a map is built using reflect, and then
assigned to a variable of map type, the hash function can change. That
causes very bad things.
This issue is rare. MapOf consults a cache of all types that occur in
the binary before making a new one. To make a true new map type (with
a hash function derived from typehash) that map type must not occur in
the binary anywhere. But to cause the bug, we need a variable of that
type in order to assign to it. The only way to make that work is to
use a named map type for the variable, so it is distinct from the
unnamed version that MapOf looks for.
Fixes #37721
