Aske Simon Christensen ad06d73ace [dart2wasm] Use a flat index space for function type parameters
The current two-level indexing scheme for function type parameters
(depth and index) breaks down in the case of type substitution when
the substituted type is a generic function type, since its internal
type parameter types have been encoded assuming that the function type
had nesting depth zero, but after substitution its nesting depth can
be higher.

Relative indexing schemes such as De Bruijn indices will also not
work, since function type parameter types are constant types, and the
constant infrastructure assumes that the same constant always has the
same representation.

This change introduces a flat indexing scheme where function type
parameters are indexed using a single index which is independent of
the context in which the type parameter type appears. To avoid
collisions in the case of nested generic function types, every function
type has a type parameter offset, which conceptually shifts the
indexing range of its type parameters so it doesn't necessarily start
at zero.

Looking up a function type parameter in its environment thus involves
searching outwards until a function type is found whose type parameter
index range contains the index encoded in the function type parameter
type.
