cmd/link: export specialized variants of runtime._type to debug_info
The reflect package can be used to create new types at runtime, these
types will have runtime._type entries describing them but no entry in
debug_info (obviously).
A debugger that wanted to print the value of variables with such types
will have to read the runtime._type directly, however the
"specializations" of runtime._type (runtime.slicetype, runtime.maptype,
etc) are not exported to debug_info, besides runtime.interfacetype.
All those types (i.e. runtime.slicetype, runtime.maptype, etc) should
be exported to debug_info so that debuggers don't have to hard-code
their description.
Fixes #19602
