Forbid glob-importing from a type alias

This PR forbids glob-importing from a type alias or trait (fixes #30560):
```rust
type Alias = ();
use Alias::*; // This is currently allowed but shouldn't be
```

This is a [breaking-change]. Since the disallowed glob imports don't actually import anything, any breakage can be fixed by removing the offending glob import.
