go/analysis/passes/copylock: fix infinite recursion

Generalize the 'seenTParams' map to short-circuit all forms of infinite
recursion in the lockPath function, not just through type parameters.

For invalid code, it is possible to have infinite recursion through
named types.

Fixes golang/go#61678
