[dev.typeparams] cmd/compile: refactor "need to emit" logic for types

This CL refactors out a single reflectdata.NeedEmit function that
reports whether the current compilation unit needs to emit the runtime
type descriptor and method wrappers for a given type.

As a minor side bonus, this CL also skips compiling the "error.Error"
wrapper in non-runtime packages. Package runtime already
unconditionally emitted the runtime type descriptor for error, so we
just need to make sure it emits the wrapper and other packages don't.

Passes toolstash -cmp.
