Properly deal with weak alias types as self types of impls
Fixes#114216.
Fixes#116100.
Not super happy about the two ad hoc “normalization” implementations for weak alias types:
1. In `inherent_impls`: The “peeling”, normalization to [“WHNF”][whnf]: Semantically that's exactly what we want (neither proper normalization nor shallow normalization would be correct here). Basically a weak alias type is “nominal” (well...^^) if the WHNF is nominal. [#97974](#97974) followed the same approach.
2. In `constrained_generic_params`: Generic parameters are constrained by a weak alias type if the corresp. “normalized” type constrains them (where we only normalize *weak* alias types not arbitrary ones). Weak alias types are injective if the corresp. “normalized” type is injective.
Both have ad hoc overflow detection mechanisms.
**Coherence** is handled in #117164.
r? `@oli-obk` or types
