acanino b60c8203ea cmd/compile: "invalid variable name x in type switch", where x is a name of a constant
Small fix: looks like a short variable declaration with a type switch
checks to make sure the variable used had valid shape (ONAME, OTYPE, or
ONONAME) and rejects everything else. Then a new variable is declared.
If the symbol contained in the declaration was a named OLITERAL (still a
valid identifier obviously) it would be rejected, even though a new
variable would have been declared.

Fix adds this case to the check.

Added a test case from issue12413.

Fixes #12413
