 Fix #14888 by adding more special cases for ArrowT

 Summary:
 There were previously some situations where `(->)` would
 not be desugared or reified as `ArrowT`, leading to various oddities
 such as those observed in #14888. We now uniformly treat `(->)` as
 `ArrowT` in Template Haskell–world by checking for any tycon that
 has the same name as `(->)`, and converting that to `ArrowT`.

 Test Plan: make test TEST=T14888
