David Lazar 5d1b53a944 cmd/compile: generate code that type checks when inlining variadic functions
This fixes a bug in -l=3 or higher.

To inline a variadic function, the compiler generates code that constructs
a slice of arguments for the variadic parameter. Consider the function

  func Foo(xs ...string)

and the call Foo("hello", "world"). To inline the call to Foo, the
compiler used to generate

  xs := [2]string{"hello", "world"}[:]

which doesn't type check:

  invalid operation [2]string literal[:] (slice of unaddressable value).

Now, the compiler generates

  xs := []string{"hello", "world"}

which does type check.

Fixes #18116.
