Rollup merge of #107321 - lcnr:comment, r=compiler-errors

solver comments + remove `TyCtxt::evaluate_goal`

from the `RustcContributor::explore` session yesterday.

This also removes `TyCtxt::evaluate_goal` because to canonicalize you have to use an `InferCtxt` anyways at which point we should just always get people to use `evaluate_root_goal`.

r? ``@spastorino``
