internal/lsp: improve literal func completion candidates

Previously we were erroneously suggesting a "func() {}" literal in
cases like:

http.Handle("/", <>)

This was happening because saw that the http.HandlerFunc type
satisfied the http.Handler interface, and that http.HandlerFunc is a
function type. However, of course, you can't pass a function literal
to http.Handle().

Make a few tweaks to address the problem:

1. Don't suggest literal "func () {}" candidates if the expected type
   is an interface type.

2. Suggest named function types that implement an interface. This
   causes us to suggest "http.HandlerFunc()" in the above example.

3. Suggest a func literal candidate inside named function type
   conversions. This will suggest "func() {}" when completing
   "http.HandlerFunc(<>)".

This way the false positive func literal is gone, and you still get
literal candidates that help you use an http.HandlerFunc as an
http.Handler. Note that this particular example is not very compelling
in light of http.HandleFunc() which can take a func literal directly,
but such a convenience function may not exist in other analogous
situations.

Go Tools

This subrepository holds the source for various packages and tools that support the Go programming language.

Some of the tools, godoc and vet for example, are included in binary Go distributions.

Others, including the Go guru and the test coverage tool, can be fetched with go get.

Packages include a type-checker for Go and an implementation of the Static Single Assignment form (SSA) representation for Go programs.

Download/Install

The easiest way to install is to run go get -u golang.org/x/tools/.... You can also manually git clone the repository to $GOPATH/src/golang.org/x/tools.
