[release-branch.go1.3] cmd/gc: two escape analysis fixes

??? CL 108860043 / f153208c0a0e
cmd/gc: fix escape analysis for &x inside switch x := v.(type)

The analysis for &x was using the loop depth on x set
during x's declaration. A type switch creates a list of
implicit declarations that were not getting initialized
with loop depths.

Fixes issue 8176.

cmd/gc: fix &result escaping into result

There is a hierarchy of location defined by loop depth:

        -1 = the heap
        0 = function results
        1 = local variables (and parameters)
        2 = local variable declared inside a loop
        3 = local variable declared inside a loop inside a loop
        etc

In general if an address from loopdepth n is assigned to
something in loop depth m < n, that indicates an extended
lifetime of some form that requires a heap allocation.

Function results can be local variables too, though, and so
they don't actually fit into the hierarchy very well.
Treat the address of a function result as level 1 so that
if it is written back into a result, the address is treated
as escaping.

Fixes  issue 8185 .
