cmd/compile/internal/types2: use a TypeList type to hold type arguments

This is a port of CL 343933 from go/types with the necessary
adjustments in the compiler.

With this CL type parameters and type lists are now held in
TParamList and TypeList data types which don't expose the
internal representation.
