//go:notinheap
type T int
type U T
We already correctly propagate the notinheap-ness of T to U. But we
have an assertion in the typechecker that if there's no explicit
//go:notinheap associated with U, then report an error. Get rid of
that error so that implicit propagation is allowed.
Adjust the tests so that we make sure that uses of types like U
do correctly report an error when U is used in a context that might
cause a Go heap allocation.

The alias doesn't need to be marked go:notinheap. It gets its
notinheap-ness from the target type.
Without this change, the type alias test in the notinheap.go file
generates these two errors:
notinheap.go:62: misplaced compiler directive
notinheap.go:63: type nih must be go:notinheap
The first is a result of go:notinheap pragmas not applying
to type alias declarations.
The second is the result of then trying to match the notinheap-ness
of the alias and the target type.
Add a few more go:notinheap tests while we are here.

Right now we just prevent such types from being on the heap. This CL
makes it so they cannot appear on the stack either. The distinction
between heap and stack is pretty vague at the language level (e.g. it
is affected by -N), and we don't need the flexibility anyway.
Once go:notinheap types cannot be in either place, we don't need to
consider pointers to such types to be pointers, at least according to
the garbage collector and stack copying. (This is the big win of this
CL, in my opinion.)
The distinction between HasPointers and HasHeapPointer no longer
exists. There is only HasPointers.
This CL is cleanup before possible use of go:notinheap to fix#40954.

This adds a //go:notinheap pragma for declarations of types that must
not be heap allocated. We ensure these rules by disallowing new(T),
make([]T), append([]T), or implicit allocation of T, by disallowing
conversions to notinheap types, and by propagating notinheap to any
struct or array that contains notinheap elements.
The utility of this pragma is that we can eliminate write barriers for
writes to pointers to go:notinheap types, since the write barrier is
guaranteed to be a no-op. This will let us mark several scheduler and
memory allocator structures as go:notinheap, which will let us
disallow write barriers in the scheduler and memory allocator much
more thoroughly and also eliminate some problematic hybrid write
barriers.
This also makes go:nowritebarrierrec and go:yeswritebarrierrec much
more powerful. Currently we use go:nowritebarrier all over the place,
but it's almost never what you actually want: when write barriers are
illegal, they're typically illegal for a whole dynamic scope. Partly
this is because go:nowritebarrier has been around longer, but it's
also because go:nowritebarrierrec couldn't be used in situations that
had no-op write barriers or where some nested scope did allow write
barriers. go:notinheap eliminates many no-op write barriers and
go:yeswritebarrierrec makes it possible to opt back in to write
barriers, so these two changes will let us use go:nowritebarrierrec
far more liberally.
This updates #13386, which is about controlling pointers from non-GC'd
memory to GC'd memory. That would require some additional pragma (or
pragmas), but could build on this pragma.
