cmd/compile, cmd/link: weak relocation for ptrTo

Introduce R_WEAKADDROFF, a "weak" variation of the R_ADDROFF relocation
that will only reference the type described if it is in some other way
reachable.

Use this for the ptrToThis field in reflect type information where it
is safe to do so (that is, types that don't need to be included for
interface satisfaction, and types that won't cause the compiler to
recursively generate an endless series of ptr-to-ptr-to-ptr-to...
types).

Also fix a small bug in reflect, where StructOf was not clearing the
ptrToThis field of new types.

Fixes #17931
