[dev.regabi] cmd/compile: first start towards using Ident

This CL adds Ident, which will eventually replace *Name and *PkgName
within the AST for representing uses of declared names. (Originally, I
intended to call it "IdentExpr", but neither go/ast nor
cmd/compile/internal/syntax include the "Expr" suffix for their
respective types.)

To start, this CL converts two uses of *Name to *Ident: the tag
identifier in a TypeSwitchGuard (which doesn't actually declare a
variable by itself), and the not-yet-known placeholder ONONAME
returned by oldname to stand-in for identifiers that might be declared
later in the package.

The TypeSwitchGuard's Name's Used flag was previously used for
detecting whether none of the per-clause variables were used. To avoid
bloating all Idents for this rare use, a "Used" bool is added to
TypeSwitchGuard instead. Eventually it could maybe be packed into
miniNode.bits, but for now this is good enough.

Passes buildall w/ toolstash -cmp.
