wf: handle "livelock" checking before reaching `WfPredicates::compute`.

For `wf::obligations`'s "livelock" handling, this PR shouldn't cause any behavioral changes, as the check moved to it should be equivalent to the old one in `WfPredicates::compute`.

However, it fixes #70168 by making *other* users of `WfPredicates::compute` (that is, `wf::predicate_obligations` and `compute`'s own upvar handling) correct for `ty::Infer`, in that they now get a `WellFormed(ty::Infer(_))` obligation instead of silently ignoring the type.
