rustc: don't resolve Instances which would produce malformed shims.
There are some `InstanceDef` variants (shims and drop "glue") which contain a `Ty`, and that `Ty` is used in generating the shim MIR. But if that `Ty` mentions any generic parameters, the generated shim would refer to them (but they won't match the `Substs` of the `Instance`), or worse, generating the shim would fail because not enough of the type is known.
Ideally we would always produce a "skeleton" of the type, e.g. `(_, _)` for dropping any tuples with two elements, or `Vec<_>` for dropping any `Vec` value, but that's a lot of work, and they would still not match the `Substs` of the `Instance` as it exists today, so `Instance` would probably need to change.
By making `Instance::resolve` return `None` in the still-generic cases, we get behavior similar to specialization, where a default can only be used if there are no more generic parameters which would allow a more specialized `impl` to match.
<hr/>
This was found while testing the MIR inliner with #68965, because it was trying to inline shims.
