Historically, vet had always been unhappy about encoding/xml itself:
method MarshalXML(e *xml.Encoder, start xml.StartElement) error should
have signature MarshalXML(*xml.Encoder, xml.StartElement) error
This dates back to the time when vet couldn't depend on type
information. It compared the type expressions directly as strings, which
was a problem when the code was in encoding/xml itself. There, the
function parameters are *Encoder and StartElement, not *xml.Encoder and
xml.StartElement.
However, vet has been depending on type information for a while, so this
restriction no longer makes sense. The analyzer almost got it right, but
the only stopgap was a piece of the old code that tried to compare type
expression strings.
Remove it; typeString already deals with these edge cases for us. To
ensure vet remains happy with encoding/xml, add a very simple test for
it. The package now has zero reports, so the fact that its source has
zero "// want" comments is appropriate.
Finally, remove some long unused parameters from matchParamType.

As Alan rightfully guessed, porting the stdmethods check to use go/types
required the use of types.TypeString not only when printing signatures
in warnings, but also when matching them.
Added a simple test case too.
Fixesgolang/go#28792.

Type.String prints named types using the complete package path: "dir/pkg.T"
The notation used by canonicalMethod, and the cmd/vet/all whitelist,
and the one users want to see, uses only the package name: "pkg.T".

Now that vet can rely on go/types, there's no reason to do extra work to
avoid using it. The rewrite lets us get rid of the field list flattening
code, as well as the slight verbosity that comes with go/printer.
While at it, make the testdata/method.go expected errors be more
specific, to make sure that we're not breaking the warnings that are
printed.
