Robert Griesemer ffc0573b85 cmd/compile/internal/syntax: better error when an assignment is used in value context
The error message is now positioned at the statement position (which is
an identifing token, such as the '=' for assignments); and in case of
assignments it emphasizes the assignment by putting the Lhs and Rhs
in parentheses. Finally, the wording is changed from "use of * as value"
to the stronger "cannot use * as value" (for which there is precedent
elsewhere in the parser).

Fixes #36858.
