Fix two more bugs in partial signatures

These were shown up by Trac #14643

Bug 1: if we had a single partial signature for
two functions
   f, g :: forall a. _ -> a
then we made two different SigTvs but with the sane Name.
This was jolly confusing and ultimately led to deeply bogus
results with Any's appearing in the resulting program. Yikes.
Fix: clone the quantified variables in TcSigs.tcInstSig (as
indeed its name suggests).

Bug 2: we were not eliminating duplicate/superclass constraints
in the partial signatures of a mutually recursive group.

Easy to fix: we are already doing dup/superclass elim in
TcSimplify.decideQuantification.  So we move the partial-sig
constraints there too.
