Close#17509
Current knowledge:
- delaying cache fixes the issue
- changing return of `if inst.len < key.len:` in `searchInstTypes` to
`continue` fixes the issue. With return the broken types are also cached
over and over
Related issues are completely unaffected as of now, so there must be
something deeper.
I am also still trying to find the true cause, so feel free to ignore
for now

Move `symFromType` and `symNodeFromType` from `sem`, and `isSelf` and
`makeTypeDesc` from `concepts` into `semdata`.
`makeTypeDesc` was moved out from semdata [when the `concepts` module
was
added](6278b5d89a),
so its old position might have been intended. If not, `isSelf` can also
go in `ast`.
fixes#22639
A `tyGenericInst` has its last son as the instantiated body of the
original generic type. However this type keeps its original `sym` field
from the original generic types, which means the sym's type is
uninstantiated. This causes problems in the implementation of `getType`,
where it uses the `sym` fields of types to represent them in AST, the
relevant example for the issue being
[here](d13aab50cf/compiler/vmdeps.nim (L191))
called from
[here](d13aab50cf/compiler/vmdeps.nim (L143)).
To fix this, create a new symbol from the original symbol for the
instantiated body during the creation of `tyGenericInst`s with the
appropriate type. Normally `replaceTypeVarsS` would be used for this,
but here it seems to cause some recursion issue (immediately gives an
error like "cannot instantiate HSlice[T, U]"), so we directly set the
symbol's type to the instantiated type.
Avoiding recursion means we also cannot use `replaceTypeVarsN` for the
symbol AST, and the symbol not having any AST crashes the implementation
of `getType` again
[here](d13aab50cf/compiler/vmdeps.nim (L167)),
so the symbol AST is set to the original generic type AST for now which
is what it was before anyway.
Not sure about this because not sure why the recursion issue is
happening, putting it at the end of the proc doesn't help either. Also
not sure if the `cl.owner != nil and s.owner != cl.owner` condition from
`replaceTypeVarsS` is relevant here. This might also break some code if
it depended on the original generic type symbol being given.

Committing this mostly to make the issue more clear. Perhaps get better
feedback.
* semExprWithType seems like a better place to check

* stopped the dot operator madness
No longer get infinite recursion when seming broken code with a dot
operator macro like in jsffi.

The new mechanism can deal with more complex scenarios such as
not nil field appearing in a non-default case object branch or
a field within a generic object that may depend on a when branch.
The commit also plugs another hole: the user is no longer able
to create illegal default values through seq.setLen(N).
