When types.Instantiate is called with check == nil (as done by golang.org/x/tools/go/ssa), the resulting *Alias instances had a.actual == nil. Concurrent calls to types.Identical would then race on the lazy initialization in unalias(). This change adds an else clause to (*Checker).newAlias to call a.cleanup() inline when check == nil, ensuring a.actual is set before the alias escapes. The new test TestInstantiateAliasRace reproduces the race when the fix is not present and passes with the fix applied. Fixes golang#79035
