Improve type mismatch w/ function signatures

This PR makes use of `note: expected/found` (instead of labeling types in labels) in type mismatch with function signatures. Pros: it's easier to compare the signatures, cons: the error is a little more verbose now.

This is especially nice when
- The signatures differ in a small subset of parameters (same parameters are elided)
- The difference is in details, for example `isize` vs `usize` (there is a better chance that the types align)

Also this PR fixes the inconsistency in variable names in the edited code (`expected` and `found`).

A zulip thread from which this pr started: [[link]](https://rust-lang.zulipchat.com/#narrow/stream/147480-t-compiler.2Fwg-diagnostics/topic/Type.20error.20regression.3F.2E.2E.2E/near/289756602).
