Fix a subtle scoping error in simplLazyBind
In the call to prepareBinding (in simplLazyBind), I had failed to extend the in-scope set with the binders from body_floats1. As as result, when eta-expanding deep inside prepareBinding we made up an eta-binder that shadowed a variable free in body1. Yikes. It's hard to trigger this bug. It showed up when I was working on !5658, and I started using the in-scope set for eta-expansion, rather than taking free variables afresh. But even then it only showed up when compiling a module in Haddock utils/haddock/haddock-api/src/Haddock/Interface/Rename.hs Sadly Haddock is compiled without Core Lint, so we ultimately got a seg-fault. Lint nailed it fast once I realised that it was off. There is some other tiny refactoring in this patch.
