Many of Type's fields are etype-specific.
This CL organizes them into their own auxiliary types,
duplicating a few fields as necessary,
and adds an Extra field to hold them.
It also sorts the remaining fields for better struct packing.
It also improves documentation for most fields.
This reduces the size of Type at the cost of some extra allocations.
There's no CPU impact; memory impact below.
It also makes the natural structure of Type clearer.
Passes toolstash -cmp on all architectures.
Ideas for future work in this vein:
(1) Width and Align probably only need to be
stored for Struct and Array types.
The refactoring to accomplish this would hopefully
also eliminate TFUNCARGS and TCHANARGS entirely.
(2) Maplineno is sparsely used and could probably better be
stored in a separate map[*Type]int32, with mapqueue updated
to store both a Node and a line number.
(3) The Printed field may be removable once the old (non-binary)
importer/exported has been removed.
(4) StructType's fields field could be changed from *[]*Field to []*Field,
which would remove a common allocation.
(5) I believe that Type.Nod can be moved to ForwardType. Separate CL.

Boolean expressions involving t.Thistuple were converted to use
t.Recv(), because it's a bit clearer and will hopefully reveal cases
where we could remove redundant calls to t.Recv() (in followup CLs).
The other cases were all converted to use t.Recvs().NumFields(),
t.Params().NumFields(), or t.Results().NumFields().

Switch TSTRUCT and TINTER to use Fields instead of Type, which wrings
out the remaining few direct uses of the latter.
Preparation for converting fields to use a separate "Field" type.

Use a map to detect duplicate symbols. Allows eliminating an otherwise
unneeded field from Sym and gets rid of a global variable.
