cmd/compile: increase nesting depth limit for type descriptors

The formatting routines for types use a depth limit as primitive
mechanism to detect cycles. For now, increase the limit from 100
to 250 and file #29312 so we don't drop this on the floor.

Also, adjust some fatal error messages elsewhere to use
better formatting.

Fixes #29264.
Updates #29312.
