// Internal use of LookupFieldOrMethod: If the obj result is a method
// associated with a concrete (non-interface) type, the method's signature
// may not be fully set up. Call Checker.objDecl(obj, nil) before accessing
// the method's type.
// LookupFieldOrMethod looks up a field or method with given package and name
// in T and returns the corresponding *Var or *Func, an index sequence, and a
// bool indicating if there were any pointer indirections on the path to the
// field or method. If addressable is set, T is the type of an addressable
// variable (only matters for method lookups). T must not be nil.
//
// The last index entry is the field or method index in the (possibly embedded)
// type where the entry was found, either:
//
// 1) the list of declared methods of a named type; or
// 2) the list of all methods (method set) of an interface type; or
// 3) the list of fields of a struct type.
//
// The earlier index entries are the indices of the embedded struct fields
// traversed to get to the found entry, starting at depth 0.
//
// If no entry is found, a nil object is returned. In this case, the returned
// index and indirect values have the following meaning:
//
// - If index != nil, the index sequence points to an ambiguous entry
// (the same name appeared more than once at the same embedding level).
//
// - If indirect is set, a method with a pointer receiver type was found
// but there was no pointer on the path from the actual receiver type to
// the method's formal receiver base type, nor was the receiver addressable.
