* reflect: implement method-set based AssignableTo and Implements
Based on the design from #4376 by aykevl.
Fixes#4277, fixes#3580.

* builder: update expected binary sizes for reflect changes
* Make interface checks similar to invoke, allowing typeImplementsMethodSet and method info to be dropped when reflect is not present
* Add more tests that BigGo reflect tests
* Even more pruning
* Add go/token and net/url to passing tests
* Prune even further, I am less happy with this, though
* Update size test now that we are smaller
* Skip some tests
* elide method lists
* format, oops
* fix tests
* Add a panic, pull out constant to keep in sync
* Add debug info
* Remove code that was leftover from a previous refactor

For some reason, the type kind name is "unsafe.Pointer" while the
.Name() method just returns "Pointer".
Not sure why this difference exists, but to be able to test .Name() in
testdata/reflect.go it needs to match.
This commit fixes two related issues:
1. CanInterface was unimplemented. It now uses the same check as is
used in Interface() itself.
This issue led to https://github.com/tinygo-org/tinygo/issues/3033
2. Allow making an interface out of a string char element.
Doing this in one commit (instead of two) because they are shown to be
correct with the same tests.
v.Interaface() could construct an interface in interface value if v was
of type interface. This is not correct, and doesn't follow upstream Go
behavior. Instead, it should return the interface value itself.
When using reflect, arbitrary types can be synthesized. This invalidates
a few assumptions in the interface-lowering pass, that think they can
see all types that are in use in a program and optimize accordingly.
The file size impact depends on the specific program. Sometimes it's
nonexistent, sometimes it's rather hefty (up to 30% bigger). Especially
the samd21 targets seem to be affected, with a 2000-6000 bytes increase
in code size. A moderately large case (the stdlib test) increases by
4%/6%/15% depending on the target.
I hope that this increase could be mitigated, but I don't see an obvious
way to do that.
Linked lists are usually implemented as follows:
type linkedList struct {
next *linkedList
data int // whatever
}
This caused a stack overflow while writing out the reflect run-time type
information. This has now been fixed by splitting the allocation of a
named type number from setting the underlying type in the sidetable.
With this change, it becomes possible to get the element type of named
slices, pointers, and channels.
This is a prerequisite to enable the common named struct types. There's
more to come.
This commit makes sure all Go types can be encoded in the interface type
code, so that Type.Kind() always returns a proper type kind for any
non-nil interface.
