f7a1006a07 Make resolve check for type-variable name-shadowing
Capturing a type argument in the enclosing scope should be an error --
this commit implements that check in resolve, avoiding a potential
assertion failure in trans.

Closes #648.

1a6d029b07 Emit a better error message for unbound type parameters in nested functions
This code was causing a bounds check failure:

fn hd[U](&vec[U] v) -> U {
  fn hd1(&vec[U] w) -> U {
    ret w.(0);
  }
  ret hd1(v);
}

because in hd1, U was being treated as if it referred to a type
parameter of hd1, rather than referring to the lexically enclosing binding
for U that's part of hd.

I'm actually not sure whether this is a legit program or not. But I wanted
to get rid of the bounds check error, so I assumed that program shouldn't
compile and made it a proper error message.
