 Do not unify representational equalities

 This patch is an easy fix to Trac #15144, which was caused
 by accidentally unifying a representational equality in the
 unflattener.  (The main code in TcInteract was always careful
 not to do so, but I'd missed the test in the unflattener.)

 See Note [Do not unify representational equalities]
 in TcInteract
