The error message is now positioned at the statement position (which is
an identifing token, such as the '=' for assignments); and in case of
assignments it emphasizes the assignment by putting the Lhs and Rhs
in parentheses. Finally, the wording is changed from "use of * as value"
to the stronger "cannot use * as value" (for which there is precedent
elsewhere in the parser).
Fixes#36858.

Don't report errors if we don't have a correct type switch
guard; instead ignore it and leave it to the type-checker
to report the error. This leads to better error messages
concentrating on the type switch guard rather than errors
around (confusing) syntactic details.
Also clean up some code setting up AssertExpr (they never
have a nil Type field) and remove some incorrect TODOs.
Fixes#24470.
