metagn 4acc7a5e18 reset inTypeofContext in generic instantiations (#24229)
fixes #24228, refs #22022

As described in
https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/issues/24228#issuecomment-2392462221,
instantiating generic routines inside `typeof` causes all code inside to
be treated as being in a typeof context, and thus preventing compile
time proc folding, causing issues when code is generated for the
instantiated routine. Now, instantiated generic procs are treated as
never being inside a `typeof` context.

This is probably an arbitrary special case and more issues with the
`typeof` behavior from #22022 are likely. Ideally this behavior would be
removed but it's necessary to accomodate the current [proc `declval` in
the package `stew`](https://github.com/status-im/nim-stew/pull/190), at
least without changes to `compileTime` that would either break other
code (making it not eagerly fold by default) or still require a change
in stew (adding an option to disable the eager folding).

Alternatively we could also make the eager folding opt-in only for
generic compileTime procs so that #22022 breaks nothing whatsoever, but
a universal solution would be better. Edit: Done in #24230 via
experimental switch
