Rollup merge of #120552 - GuillaumeGomez:never-type-feature-gate, r=compiler-errors

Correctly check `never_type` feature gating

Fixes #120542.

The feature wasn't tested on return type of a generic function type, so it got under the radar in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/120316.

r? ```@compiler-errors```
