Fence-post implications of the form "x-1 >= w && x > min ⇒ x > w"
were not correctly handling unsigned domain, by always checking signed
limits.

This bug was uncovered once we taught prove that len(x) is always
>= 0 in the signed domain.

In the code being miscompiled (s[len(s)-1]), prove checks
whether len(s)-1 >= len(s) in the unsigned domain; if it proves
that this is always false, it can remove the bound check.

Notice that len(s)-1 >= len(s) can be true for len(s) = 0 because
of the wrap-around, so this is something prove should not be
able to deduce.

But because of the bug, the gate condition for the fence-post
implication was len(s) > MinInt64 instead of len(s) > 0; that
condition would be good in the signed domain but not in the
unsigned domain. And since in CL105635 we taught prove that
len(s) >= 0, the condition incorrectly triggered
(len(s) >= 0 > MinInt64) and things were going downfall.

Internal helper functions for type-checking type expressions were
renamed to make it clearer when they should be used:

	typExpr (w/o def) -> typ
	typExpr (w/  def) -> definedType
	typ               -> indirectType
	typExprInternal   -> typInternal

The rename emphasizes that in most cases Checker.typ should be used
to compute the types.Type from an ast.Type. If the type is defined,
definedType should be used. For composite type elements which are
not "inlined" in memory, indirectType should be used.

In the process, implicitly changed several uses of indirectType
(old: typ) to typ (old: typExpr) by not changing the respective
function call source. These implicit changes are ok in those
places because either call is fine where we are not concerned
about composite type elements. But using typ (old: typExpr) is
more efficient than using indirectType (old: typ).

For Go 1.11, cycle tracking of global (package-level) objects was changed
to use a Checker-level object path rather than relying on the explicit
path parameter that is passed around to some (but not all) type-checker
functions.

This change now uses the same mechanism for the detection of local
type cycles (local non-type objects cannot create cycles by definition
of the spec).

As a result, local alias cycles are now correctly detected as well
(issue #27106).

The path parameter that is explicitly passed around to some type-checker
methods is still present and will be removed in a follow-up CL.

Also:
- removed useCycleMarking flag and respective dead code
- added a couple more tests
- improved documentation

The type-checker currently crashes when checking code such as:

	_ = map[string][...]int{"": {1, 2, 3}}

In this case, the type checker reports an error for map[string][...]int,
then proceeds to type-check the values of the map literal using a hint
type of [...]int. When type-checking the inner composite (array) literal,
the length of the open array type is computed from the elements,
then the array type is recorded, but the literal has no explicit type
syntax against which to record the type, so this code causes the
type-checker to panic. Add a nil check before calling
check.recordTypeAndValue to avoid that.

Refactor TestSplice/readerAtEOF to handle cases where we disable
splice on older kernels better.

If splice is disabled, net.splice and poll.Splice do not get to
observe EOF on the reader, because poll.Splice returns immediately
with EINVAL. The test fails unexpectedly, because the splice operation
is reported as not handled.

This change refactors the test to handle the aforementioned case
correctly, by not calling net.splice directly, but using a higher
level check.
