 Fix egregious error in eta-reduction of data families

 This terrible and long-standing bug was shown up by Trac #11148.
 We are trying to eta-reduce a data family instance, so that we
 can then derive Functor or Generic.  But we were assuming, for
 absolutely not reason whatsoever, that the type variables were
 lined up in a convenient order.  The fact that it ever worked
 was a fluke.

 This patch fixes it properly.  Main change is in eta_reduce
 in TcInstDcls.tcDataFamInstDecl
