We introduced silent superclass parameters as a way to avoid
superclass loops, but we now solve that problem a different
way ("derived" superclass constraints carry no evidence). So
they aren't needed any more.

Apart from being a needless complication, they broke DoCon.
Admittedly in a very obscure way, but still the result is
hard to explain. To see the details see Trac #5051, with
test case typecheck/should_compile/T5051.  (The test is
nice and small!)
