This change re-introduces (temporarily) a work-around for recursive
alias type declarations, originally in https://golang.org/cl/35831/
(intended as fix for #18640). The work-around was removed later
for a more comprehensive cycle detection check. That check
contained a subtle error which made the code appear to work,
while in fact creating incorrect types internally. See #25838
for details.
By re-introducing the original work-around, we eliminate problems
with many simple recursive type declarations involving aliases;
specifically cases such as #27232 and #27267. However, the more
general problem remains.
This CL also fixes the subtle error (incorrect variable use when
analyzing a type cycle) mentioned above and now issues a fatal
error with a reference to the relevant issue (rather than crashing
later during the compilation). While not great, this is better
than the current status. The long-term solution will need to
address these cycles (see #25838).
As a consequence, several old test cases are not accepted anymore
by the compiler since they happened to work accidentally only.
This CL disables parts or all code of those test cases. The issues
are: #18640, #23823, and #24939.
One of the new test cases (fixedbugs/issue27232.go) exposed a
go/types issue. The test case is excluded from the go/types test
suite and an issue was filed (#28576).
Updates #18640.
Updates #23823.
Updates #24939.
Updates #25838.
Updates #28576.
Fixes #27232.
Fixes #27267.
Fixes #27383.
