Rollup merge of #121379 - nnethercote:rm-unchecked_error_guaranteed, r=oli-obk

Remove an `unchecked_error_guaranteed` call.

If we abort immediately after complaining about the obsolete `impl Trait for ..` syntax, then we avoid reaching HIR lowering. This means we can use `TyKind::Dummy` instead of `TyKind::Err`.

r? `@oli-obk`
