cmd/compile: report more precise errors about untyped constants
Previously, we used a single "untyped number" type for all untyped numeric constants. This led to vague error messages like "string(1.0)" reporting that "1 (type untyped number)" can't be converted to string, even though "string(1)" is valid. This CL makes cmd/compile more like go/types by utilizing types.Ideal{int,rune,float,complex} instead of types.Types[TIDEAL], and keeping n.Type in sync with n.Val().Ctype() during constant folding. Thanks to K Heller for looking into this issue, and for the included test case. Fixes #21979.
