cmd/compile: better XPos for rematerialized values and JMPs

This attempts to choose better values for values that are
rematerialized (uses the XPos of the consumer, not the
original) and for unconditional branches (uses the last
assigned XPos in the block).

The JMP branches seem to sometimes end up with a PC in the
destination block, I think because of register movement
or rematerialization that gets placed in predecessor blocks.
This may be acceptable because (eyeball-empirically) that is
often the line number of the target block, so the line number
flow is correct.

Added proper test, that checks both -N -l and regular compilation.
The test is also capable (for gdb, delve soon) of tracking
variable printing based on comments in the source code.

There's substantial room for improvement in debugger behavior.

Updates #21098.
