cmd/compile: added special case for reflect header fields to esc

The uintptr-typed Data field in reflect.SliceHeader and
reflect.StringHeader needs special treatment because it is
really a pointer.  Add the special treatment in walk for
bug #19168 to escape analysis.

Includes extra debugging that was helpful.

Fixes #19743.
