test: use a real use function in nilptr2.go

Adjust the dummy use function to a real use. As suggested by the
println calls in the test, nilptr2.go supposes to check that a
used nil pointer dereference panics. This use function is not
real enough so an optimized compiler such as gccgo could
eliminate the call.

The spec requires that even a dummy use would cause a panic.
Unfortunately, due to #31151 this is not true for gccgo at -O1 or
above.
