Robert Findley 1a2ca95ad2 go/types, types2: only set instance context if packages match
In CL 404885, we avoid infinite expansion of type instances by sharing a
context between the expanding type and new instances created during
expansion. This ensures that we do not create an infinite number of
identical but distinct instances in the presence of reference cycles.
This pins additional memory to the new instance, but no more
(approximately) than would be pinned by the original expanding instance.

However, we can do better: since type cycles are only possible within a
single package, we only need to share the local context if the two types
are in the same package. This reduces the scope of the shared local
context, and in particular can avoid pinning the package of the
expanding type to the package of the newly created instance.

Updates #52728
