compiler: improve escape analysis on interface conversions
If an interface does not escape, it doesn't need a heap
allocation to hold the data (for non-direct interface type).
This CL improves the escape analysis to track interface
conversions, and reduces these allocations.
Implicit interface conversions were mostly added late in the
compilation pipeline, after the escape analysis. For the escape
analysis to see them, we move the introduction of these
conversions earlier, right before the escape analysis.
Now that the compiler can generate interface conversions inlined,
gcc/testsuite/go.test/test/nilptr2.go needs to be adjusted as in
golang.org/cl/176579, so the use function does an actual use.
