cmd/compile: reimplement parameter leak encoding
Currently, escape analysis is able to record at most one dereference when a parameter leaks to the heap; that is, at call sites, it can't distinguish between any of these three functions: func x1(p ****int) { sink = *p } func x2(p ****int) { sink = **p } func x3(p ****int) { sink = ***p } Similarly, it's limited to recording parameter leaks to only the first 4 parameters, and only up to 6 dereferences. All of these limitations are due to the awkward encoding scheme used at the moment. This CL replaces the encoding scheme with a simple [8]uint8 array, which can handle up to the first 7 parameters, and up to 254 dereferences, which ought to be enough for anyone. And if not, it's much more easily increased. Shrinks export data size geometric mean for Kubernetes by 0.07%. Fixes #33981.
