// Partial type checker.
//
// The fact that it is partial is very important: the input is
// an AST and a description of some type information to
// assume about one or more packages, but not all the
// packages that the program imports. The checker is
// expected to do as much as it can with what it has been
// given. There is not enough information supplied to do
// a full type check, but the type checker is expected to
// apply information that can be derived from variable
// declarations, function and method returns, and type switches
// as far as it can, so that the caller can still tell the types
// of expression relevant to a particular fix.
//
// TODO(rsc,gri): Replace with go/typechecker.
// Doing that could be an interesting test case for go/typechecker:
// the constraints about working with partial information will
// likely exercise it in interesting ways. The ideal interface would
// be to pass typecheck a map from importpath to package API text
// (Go source code), but for now we use data structures (TypeConfig, Type).
//
// The strings mostly use gofmt form.
//
// A Field or FieldList has as its type a comma-separated list
// of the types of the fields. For example, the field list
// x, y, z int
// has type "int, int, int".
// The prefix "type " is the type of a type.
// For example, given
// var x int
// type T int
// x's type is "int" but T's type is "type int".
// mkType inserts the "type " prefix.
// getType removes it.
// isType tests for it.
