cmd/compile/internal/types2: disallow lone type parameter on RHS of type declaration

We may revisit this decision in a future release. By disallowing this
for Go 1.18 we are ensuring that we don't lock in the generics design
in a place that may need to change later. (Type declarations are the
primary construct where it crucially matters what the underlying type
of a type parameter is.)

Comment out all tests that rely on this feature; add comments referring
to issue so we can find all places easily should we change our minds.

Fixes #45639.
