    Fix the treatment of lexically scoped kind variables (Trac #8856)
    
    The issue here is described in Note [Binding scoped type variables] in
    TcPat.  When implementing this fix I was able to make things quite a
    bit simpler:
     * The type variables in a type signature now never unify
       with each other, and so can be straightfoward skolems.
     * We only need the SigTv stuff for signatures in patterns,
       and for kind variables.
    
    (cherry picked from commit cf1a0f971966af633fbd932ad012ce716680465b)
