- This patch changes the equality constraint solver such that it does not
  instantiate any type variables that occur in the constraints that are to be
  solved (or in the environment).  Instead, it returns a bag of type bindings.
- If these type bindings (together with the other results of the solver) are
  discarded, solver invocation has no effect (outside the solver) and can be
  repeated (that's imported for TcSimplifyRestricted).
- For the type bindings to take effect, the caller of the solver needs to 
  execute them. 
- The solver will still instantiate type variables thet were created during 
  solving (e.g., skolem flexibles used during type flattening).
