    Refactor validity checking for type/data instances
    
    I found that there was some code duplication going on,
    so I've put more into the shared function checkValidFamPats.
    
    I did some refactoring in checkConsistentFamInst too,
    preparatory to #11450; the error messages change a little
    but no change in behaviour.
    
    (cherry picked from commit 746764cce9a111a082a13bc3cd34b50e34fd2a31)
