[ty] don't assume that deferred type inference means deferred name resolution (#20160)
## Summary

We have the ability to defer type inference of some parts of
definitions, so as to allow us to create a type that may need to be
recursively referenced in those other parts of the definition.

We also have the ability to do type inference in a context where all
name resolution should be deferred (that is, names should be looked up
from all-reachable-definitions rather than from the location of use.)
This is used for all annotations in stubs, or if `from __future__ import
annotations` is active.

Previous to this PR, these two concepts were linked: deferred-inference
always implied deferred-name-resolution, though we also supported
deferred-name-resolution without deferred-inference, via
`DeferredExpressionState`.

For the upcoming `typing.TypeAlias` support, I will defer inference of
the entire RHS of the alias (so as to support cycles), but that doesn't
imply deferred name resolution; at runtime, the RHS of a name annotated
as `typing.TypeAlias` is executed eagerly.

So this PR fully de-couples the two concepts, instead explicitly setting
the `DeferredExpressionState` in those cases where we should defer name
resolution.

It also fixes a long-standing related bug, where we were deferring name
resolution of all names in class bases, if any of the class bases
contained a stringified annotation.
