cmd/api: use placeholder names for type parameters

Changing type parameter names is not a breaking API change, so we should
not include these names in the output of cmd/api. Instead print a
placeholder '$<index>' wherever type parameters are referenced.

This is valid for cmd/api as there is at most one type parameter list in
scope for any exported declaration. If we ever support method type
parameters, we'll need to revisit this syntax.
