Accept ~x as ordinary unary expression in the parser but recognize
such expressions as invalid in the type checker.
This change opens the door to recognizing complex type constraint
literals such as `*E|~int` in `[P *E|~int]` and parse them correctly
instead of reporting a parse error because `P*E|~int` syntactically
looks like an incorrect array length expression (binary expression
where the RHS of | is an invalid unary expression ~int).
As a result, the parser is more forgiving with expressions but the
type checker will reject invalid uses as before.
We could pass extra information into the binary/unary expression
parse functions to prevent the use of ~ in invalid situations but
it doesn't seem worth the trouble. In fact it may be advantageous
to allow a more liberal expression syntax especially in the presence
of errors (better parser synchronization after an error).
Preparation for fixing #49482.

The test directory contains tests of the Go tool chain and runtime.
It includes black box tests, regression tests, and error output tests.
They are run as part of all.bash.
To run just these tests, execute:
../bin/go run run.go
To run just tests from specified files in this directory, execute:
../bin/go run run.go -- file1.go file2.go ...
Standard library tests should be written as regular Go tests in the appropriate package.
The tool chain and runtime also have regular Go tests in their packages.
The main reasons to add a new test to this directory are:
it is most naturally expressed using the test runner; or
it is also applicable to gccgo and other Go tool chains.
