Matthew Dempsky d31f85009c cmd/compile: skip emitting dictionaries with missing method expressions
The nounified frontend currently tries to construct dictionaries that
correspond to invalid instantiations (i.e., instantiations T[X] where
X does not satisfy the constraints specified on T's type parameter).
As a consequence, we may fail to find method expressions needed by the
dictionary.

The real fix for this is to avoid creating those dictionaries in the
first place, because they should never actually be needed at runtime.
But that seems scary for a backport: we've repeatedly attempted to
backport generics fixes, which have fixed one issue but introduced
another.

This CL is a minimally invasive solution to #54225, which avoids the
ICE by instead skipping emitting the invalid dictionary. If the
dictionary ends up not being needed (which I believe will always be
the case), then the linker's reachability analysis will simply ignore
its absence.

Or worst case, if the dictionary *is* reachable somehow, we've simply
turned an ICE into a link-time missing symbol failure. That's not
great for user experience, but it seems like a small trade off to
avoid risking breaking any other currently working code.

Updates #54225.
