These types are often known to the compiler already. Moving them into
the compiler is an important step for two related reasons:
* It makes the compiler better testable. Together with
https://github.com/tinygo-org/tinygo/pull/1008 it will make it
possible to test the compiler without having to load the runtime
package.
* It makes it easier to compile packages independently as the type
information of the runtime package doesn't need to be present.
I had to use hack to get this to work well: internal/task.Task is now an
opaque struct. This is necessary because there is a dependency from
*runtime.channel -> *runtime.channelBlockedList -> *internal/task.Task.
I don't want to include the definition of the internal/task.Task struct
in the compiler directly as that would make changing the internal/task
package a lot harder and the compiler doesn't need to know the layout of
that struct anyway.
