This is a feature that is not understood well enough and may have
subtle repercussions impacting future changes. Disable for Go 1.18.
The actual change is trivial: disable a branch through a flag.
The remaining changes are adjustments to tests.
Fixes#51576.

This is a pure rename of the respective Go functions/methods
with corresponding adjustments to error messages and tests.
A couple of comments were manually rephrased.
With this change, the implementation and error messages match
the latest spec.
No functionality change.

In the compiler, we need to distinguish field and method access on a
type param. For field access, we avoid the dictionary access (to create
an interface bound) and just do the normal transformDot() (which will
create the field access on the shape type).
This field access works fine for non-pointer types, since the shape type
preserves the underlying type of all types in the shape. But we
generally merge all pointer types into a single shape, which means the
field will not be accessible via the shape type. So, we need to change
Shapify() so that a type which is a pointer type is mapped to its
underlying type, rather than being merged with other pointers.
Because we don't want to change the export format at this point in the
release, we need to compute StructuralType() directly in types1, rather
than relying on types2. That implementation is in types/type.go, along
with the helper specificTypes().
I enabled the compiler-related tests in issue50417.go, added an extra
test for unnamed pointer types, and added a bunch more tests for
interesting cases involving StructuralType(). I added a test
issue50417b.go similar to the original example, but also tests access to
an embedded field.
I also added a unit test in
cmd/compile/internal/types/structuraltype_test.go that tests a bunch of
unusual cases directly (some of which have no structural type).

This change implements field the access p.f where the type of p
is a type parameter with a structural constraint that is a struct
with a field f. This is only the fix for the type checker. The
compiler will need a separate CL.
This makes the behavior consistent with the fact that we can
write struct composite literals for type parameters with a
struct structural type.
For #50417.
For #50233.
