Most examples in this issue now better, but #10 is incomplete and I'm not
certain how to reproduce it. It actually looks like a go/types problem, since
the type being reported is coming directly from that package.
Please reopen the issue if you disagree.

Bridge methods for embedded interfaces were
passing the interface twice: once as receiver,
once as first param.
Covered by $GOROOT/test/ddd.go.

Also:
- invent names ("arg%d") for parameters if missing.
- refactoring: move common code for bridge methods into
  createParams and emitTailCall.

Now that untyped expressions are done in two phases, the
identity of operand.expr is used as a map key; when reusing
operand values we now must be careful to update the

Completely rethought shift expression type checking.
Instead of attempting to type-check them eagerly, now
delay the checking of untyped constant lhs in non-
constant shifts until the final expression type
becomes clear. Once it is clear, update the respective
expression tree with the final (not untyped) type and
check respective shift lhs' where necessary.

This also cleans up another conundrum: How to report
the type of untyped constants as it changes from
untyped to typed. Now, Context.Expr is only called
for an expresion x once x has received its final
(not untyped) type (for constant initializers, the
final type may still be untyped).

With this CL all remaining std lib packages that
did not typecheck due to shift errors pass now.

TODO: There's a lot of residual stuff that needs
to be cleaned up but with this CL all tests pass
now.

The Name field of the stat structure is variable length
and the marshalling code in package syscall requires
a buf long enough to contain the Name as well as the
static data. This change makes sure that the buffer in
os.Rename is allocated with the appropriate length.
