[dev.unified] cmd/compile/internal/noder: stop handling type expressions as expressions

There are two places currently where we rely on type expressions as
generic expressions: the first argument to "make" and "new", and the
selectable operand within a method expression.

This CL makes that code responsible for handling the type expressions
directly. Longer term, this will be relevant to appropriately handling
derived types, because it will provide additional context about how
the derived type is to be used.
