Auto merge of #41777 - nikomatsakis:issue-41697-mir-dump-cycle, r=arielb1

dump-mir was causing cycles by invoking item-path-str at bad times

Workaround for now, but probably a better fix is to opt **in** to using the types for impls (if we do that at all; maybe filename/line is better).

Fixes #41697

+// Regression test for #41697. Using dump-mir was triggering
+// artificial cycles: during type-checking, we had to get the MIR for
+// the constant expressions in `[u8; 2]`, which in turn would trigger
+// an attempt to get the item-path, which in turn would request the
+// types of the impl, which would trigger a cycle. We supressed this
+// cycle now by forcing mir-dump to avoid asking for types of an impl.
