`Quotes#PolyType` type-tests as `Quotes#TypeLambda`

Compiler version

3.3.1-RC1-bin-20230216-2507577-NIGHTLY

Minimized example

import scala.quoted.*

inline def test = ${ testImpl }

def testImpl(using Quotes) =
  import quotes.reflect.*

  PolyType(List("arg"))(_ => List(TypeBounds.empty), _ => TypeRepr.of[Any]) match
    case _: TypeLambda => println("is a TypeLambda")
    case _ => println("is not a TypeLambda")

  '{ () }

Output

When expanding, the macro prints is a TypeLambda

Expectation

The documentation shows the type hierarchy:

             +
             +- LambdaType -+- MethodOrPoly -+- MethodType
             |              |                +- PolyType
             |              +- TypeLambda
             +

Based on this, I would expect the output to be is not a TypeLambda. Of course, it could be that the run time type of what PolyType generates is a subtype of both PolyType and TypeLambda, but given the documentation I find this behavior at least unexpected. I suppose that the type test and the documentation should be aligned.

The bug seems to be in the definition of type TypeLambda, we should probably have type TypeLambda = dotc.core.Types.HKTypeLambda
