Currently, uses of "nil" are handling as references to cmd/compile's
own untyped "nil" object, and then we rely on implicitly converting
that to its appropriate type. But there are cases where this can
subtly go wrong (e.g., the switch test case added in the previous CL).
Instead, explicitly handling "nil" expressions so that we can
construct them directly with the appropriate type, as computed already
by types2.
