[generics]Use "<>" to declare template would be better than "()"

[hao luo]

The creator:

Hi, I am extremely interested in and eager for golang's generics, and I have read the updated draft. https://go.googlesource.com/proposal/+/refs/heads/master/design/go2draft-type-parameters.md#acknowledgements

I think use "<>" to declare template's type would be more appropriate.

Original in the draft:

func Print(type T)(s []T) {
	// same as above
}

My opinions:

func Print<type T>(s []T) {
	// same as above
}

The reason:

1. More clear to discriminate and generics to normal funcs and type.

2. Use "<>" to declare type for generic code.

3. Use "()" to declare running params.

Wish you can give a thought to it.

Better for who? You? 

I would to love to see `[]` instead of `()`, but `<>` are horrible to read IMO.

Let's try the current syntax and see how it works out.
