An associated type is not a projection!

More correctly, a `TyKind::AssociatedType` is not the same as `TyKind::Projection`.

We used to map next-solver `TyKind::Alias` to Chalk's `TyKind::AssociatedType`. This is very incorrect, as `AssociatedType` is assumed to be fully normalized, and caused a lot of type mismatches.

Unfortunately fixing this causes a lot of stack overflows, because the next solver doesn't have something akin to `AssociatedType` so we normalize again and again. The reason is that is the lazy-normalization nature of the next solver, which means we need to stop normalizing everything. This will be fixed in the next commit.
