With recent changes, TypeParam.Underlying() now potentially mutates the type parameter, as it lazily calculates the underlying constraint interface. This can lead to race conditions for unresolved type parameters returned from the API.

As with other lazy types, we need to ensure that all type parameters creates by type checking or with the go/types API are fully resolved when they are returned to the caller.

Relatively straightforward to fix, but needs to be a release blocker (pre-beta1).
