Currently, the compiler already generates common symbols for type
    descriptors, so the type descriptors are unique. However, when a
    type is created through reflection, it is not deduplicated with
    compiler-generated types. As a consequence, we cannot assume type
    descriptors are unique, and cannot use pointer equality to
    compare them. Also, when constructing a reflect.Type, it has to
    go through a canonicalization map, which introduces overhead to
    reflect.TypeOf, and lock contentions in concurrent programs.
    
    In order for the reflect package to deduplicate types with
    compiler-created types, we register all the compiler-created type
    descriptors at startup time. The reflect package, when it needs
    to create a type, looks up the registry of compiler-created types
    before creates a new one. There is no lock contention since the
    registry is read-only after initialization.
    
    This lets us get rid of the canonicalization map, and also makes
    it possible to compare type descriptors with pointer equality.
