 Fix tcTyClTyVars to handle SigTvs

 Previously, tcTyClTyVars required that the names of the LHsQTyVars
 matched up exactly with the names of the kind of the given TyCon.
 It now does a bit of matching up when necessary to relax this
 restriction.

 This commit enables a few tests that had previously been disabled.

 The shortcoming this addresses is discussed in #11203, but that
 ticket is not directly addressed here.

 Test case: polykinds/SigTvKinds, perf/compiler/T9872d
