Matthew Dempsky 34f0029a85 cmd/compile/internal/noder: allow OCONVNOP for identical iface conversions ...

In go.dev/cl/421821, I included a hack to force OCONVNOP back to
OCONVIFACE for conversions involving shape types and non-empty
interfaces. The comment correctly noted that this was only needed for
conversions between non-identical types, but the code was conservative
and applied to even conversions between identical types.

This CL adds an extra bool to record whether the conversion is between
identical types, so we can keep OCONVNOP instead of forcing back to
OCONVIFACE. This has a small improvement to generated code, because we
no longer need a convI2I call (as demonstrated by codegen/ifaces.go).

But more usefully, this is relevant to pruning unnecessary itab slots
in runtime dictionaries (next CL).
