cmd/gc, runtime: refactor interface inlining decision into compiler

We need to change the interface value representation for
concurrent garbage collection, so that there is no ambiguity
about whether the data word holds a pointer or scalar.

This CL does NOT make any representation changes.

Instead, it removes representation assumptions from
various pieces of code throughout the tree.
The isdirectiface function in cmd/gc/subr.c is now
the only place that decides that policy.
The policy propagates out from there in the reflect
metadata, as a new flag in the internal kind value.

A follow-up CL will change the representation by
changing the isdirectiface function. If that CL causes
problems, it will be easy to roll back.

Update #8405.
