When package ssa was created, Type was in package gc.
To avoid circular dependencies, we used an interface (ssa.Type)
to represent type information in SSA.
In the Go 1.9 cycle, gri extricated the Type type from package gc.
As a result, we can now use it in package ssa.
Now, instead of package types depending on package ssa,
it is the other way.
This is a more sensible dependency tree,
and helps compiler performance a bit.
Though this is a big CL, most of the changes are
mechanical and uninteresting.
Interesting bits:
* Add new singleton globals to package types for the special
SSA types Memory, Void, Invalid, Flags, and Int128.
* Add two new Types, TSSA for the special types,
and TTUPLE, for SSA tuple types.
ssa.MakeTuple is now types.NewTuple.
* Move type comparison result constants CMPlt, CMPeq, and CMPgt
to package types.
* We had picked the name "types" in our rules for the handy
list of types provided by ssa.Config. That conflicted with
the types package name, so change it to "typ".
* Update the type comparison routine to handle tuples and special
types inline.
* Teach gc/fmt.go how to print special types.
* We can now eliminate ElemTypes in favor of just Elem,
and probably also some other duplicated Type methods
designed to return ssa.Type instead of *types.Type.
* The ssa tests were using their own dummy types,
and they were not particularly careful about types in general.
Of necessity, this CL switches them to use *types.Type;
it does not make them more type-accurate.
Unfortunately, using types.Type means initializing a bit
of the types universe.
This is prime for refactoring and improvement.
This shrinks ssa.Value; it now fits in a smaller size class
on 64 bit systems. This doesn't have a giant impact,
though, since most Values are preallocated in a chunk.

I noted in CL 38327 that the SSA test API felt a bit
clunky after the ssa.Func/ssa.Cache/ssa.Config refactoring,
and promised to clean it up once the dust settled.
The dust has settled.
Along the way, this CL fixes a potential latent bug,
in which the amd64 test context was used for all dummy Syslook calls.
The lone SSA test using the s390x context did not depend on the
Syslook context being correct, so the bug did not arise in practice.

Suggested by mdempsky in CL 38232.
This allows us to use the Frontend field
to associate frontend state and information
with a function.
See the following CL in the series for examples.
This is a giant CL, but it is almost entirely routine refactoring.
The ssa test API is starting to feel a bit unwieldy.
I will clean it up separately, once the dust has settled.

Remove size AuxInt in Store, and alignment in Move/Zero. We still
pass size AuxInt to Move/Zero, as it is used for partial Move/Zero
lowering (e.g. cmd/compile/internal/ssa/gen/386.rules:288).
SizeAndAlign is gone.

The old writebarrier implementation fails to handle single-block

in the same block. The new implementation (CL 36834) doesn't have
this problem. Add a test to ensure it.

When the compiler insert write barriers, the frontend makes
conservative decisions at an early stage. This sometimes have
false positives because of the lack of information, for example,
writes on stack. SSA's writebarrier pass identifies writes on
stack and eliminates write barriers for them.
This CL moves write barrier insertion into SSA. The frontend no
longer makes decisions about write barriers, and simply does
normal assignments and emits normal Store ops when building SSA.
SSA writebarrier pass inserts write barrier for Stores when needed.
There, it has better information about the store because Phi and
Copy propagation are done at that time.
This CL only changes StoreWB to Store in gc/ssa.go. A followup CL
simplifies SSA building code.
Updates #17583.

In writebarrier phase, a chain of StoreWBs is rewritten to branchy
code to invoke write barriers, and the last store in the chain is
spliced into a Phi op to join the memory of the two branches. We
must find the last store explicitly, since the values are not
scheduled and they may not come in dependency order.
Fixes#18169.
