This PR adds type inference support for signatures where an associated type is accessed on a type paramere, such as in:
The idea behind the implementation is to turn
T::Contentinto a type parameter. This is explained in the comment forTypeParamAssociatedTypeTypeParameterThe result is that associated types on type parameters are "lowered" into things that we already handle in type inference. For instance, a bound like
T::Output: SomeTraitis just a bound on a type parameter, which we already handle.
