This patch to the Go frontend changes it to not produce a closure for an
embedded function if one is not needed. Earlier, when Go permitted
comparisons of function types, it was necessary to always create a
closure for an embedded function, so that each embedded function would
be reliably distinct. Go 1 removed function comparisons, for this and
other reasons. Now, if an embedded function does not require a closure,
because it does not refer to any variables defined in enclosing
functions, we don't need to create a closure. Bootstrapped and ran Go
testsuite on x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu. Committed to mainline and 4.7
branch.
