cmd/api: update api checker to use go/types from std repo

The old code checked out a specific version of go/types from the
x/tools repo. With go/types being part of the std repo, this is
not necessary anymore.

Also, for the same reason, the api tool is now built like any
other regular command. There's no need to build it for each run.
Removed the respective +build tags.

Binary Distribution Notes

If you have just untarred a binary Go distribution, you need to set the environment variable $GOROOT to the full path of the go directory (the one containing this file). You can omit the variable if you unpack it into /usr/local/go, or if you rebuild from sources by running all.bash (see doc/install-source.html). You should also add the Go binary directory $GOROOT/bin to your shell's path.

For example, if you extracted the tar file into $HOME/go, you might put the following in your .profile:

export GOROOT=$HOME/go
export PATH=$PATH:$GOROOT/bin

See https://golang.org/doc/install or doc/install.html for more details.
