In the following program, it is valid to pass an interface to function P:

func P[T fmt.Stringer](x T) {
     fmt.Println(x)
}

func main() {
  var v fmt.Stringer
  P(v)
}

However, there is no way for P to check if x is nil. This does not compile:

func P[T fmt.Stringer](x T) {
     if x!=nil {
        fmt.Println(x)
    }
}

Is it possible to write a generic function that can test if its
argument with a constraint is nil?
