amusman af0c40311e cmd/compile: emit tail call wrappers when possible
Use OTAILCALL in wrapper if the receiver and method are both pointers and it is
not going to be inlined, similar to how it is done in reflectdata.methodWrapper.
Currently tail call may be used for functions with identical argument types.
This change updates wrappers where both wrapper and the wrapped method's
receiver are pointers. In this case, we have the same signature for the
wrapper and the wrapped method (modulo the receiver's pointed-to types),
and do not need any local variables in the generated wrapper (on stack)
because the arguments are immediately passed to the wrapped method in place
(without need to move some value passed to other register or to change any
argument/return passed through stack). Thus, the wrapper does not need its
own stack frame.

This applies to promoted methods, e.g. when we have some struct type U with
an embedded type *T and construct a wrapper like
func (recv *U) M(arg int) bool { return recv.T.M(i) }

See also test/abi/method_wrapper.go for a running example.
