Previous CLs optimized direct use of abi.Type, but reflect.Type is
indirected, so was not benefiting.
For TypeFor, we can use toRType directly without a nil check because the
types are statically known.
Normally, I'd think SSA would remove the nil check, but due to some
oddity (specifically, late fuse being required to remove the nil check,
but opt doesn't run that late) means that the nil check persists and
gets in the way.
Manually writing the code in this instance seems to fix the problem.
It also exposed another problem; depending on the ordering, writeType
could get to a type symbol before SSA, thereby preventing Extra from
being created on the symbol for later lookups that don't go through
TypeLinksym directly. In writeType, for non-shape types, call
TypeLinksym to ensure that the type is set up for later callers. That
change itself passed toolstash -cmp.
All up, this stack put through compilecmp shows a lot of improvement in
various reflect-using packages, and reflect itself. It is too big to fit
in the commit message but here's some info:

The test directory contains tests of the Go tool chain and runtime.
It includes black box tests, regression tests, and error output tests.
They are run as part of all.bash.
To run just these tests, execute:
../bin/go test cmd/internal/testdir
To run just tests from specified files in this directory, execute:
../bin/go test cmd/internal/testdir -run='Test/(file1.go|file2.go|...)'
Standard library tests should be written as regular Go tests in the appropriate package.
The tool chain and runtime also have regular Go tests in their packages.
The main reasons to add a new test to this directory are:
it is most naturally expressed using the test runner; or
it is also applicable to gccgo and other Go tool chains.
