refactor/rename: don't stop because of "soft" errors

Because go/types is slightly more strict than gc about certain "soft"
errors (ones that aren't necessary to interpret a Go program), gorename
rejects programs that compile under gc.  This change relaxes gorename's
error checks so that they are weaker than gc's.

This is a workaround for issue golang/go#14596 in gorename,
whose underlying problem is issue golang/go#8560 in gc.

Fixes golang/go#14596
