Deny imports of `rustc_type_ir::inherent` outside of type ir + new trait solver

We shouldn't encourage using `rustc_type_ir::inherent` outside of the new solver[^1], though this can happen by accident due to rust-analyzer, for example. See rust-lang#127537 (comment) for an example in practice.

r? fmease

[^1]: Unless we go the fully radical approach of always using these inherent methods everywhere in favor of inherent methods, which would be a major overhaul of the compiler, IMO. I don't really want to consider that possibility right now, tho.
