internal/abi: define EmptyInterface, TypeOf, and NoEscape

This change defines two commonly-defined functions and a
commonly-defined type in internal/abi to try and deduplicate some
definitions. This is motivated by a follow-up CL which will want access
to TypeOf in yet another package.

There still exist duplicate definitions of all three of these things in
the runtime, and this CL doesn't try to handle that yet. There are far
too many uses in the runtime to handle manually in a way that feels
comfortable; automated refactoring will help.

For #62483.
