 Fix panic when using pattern synonyms with DisambiguateRecordFields

 This fixes a `find_tycon` panic when constructing a record pattern
 synonym when `DisambiguateRecordFields` (turned on by `RecordWildCards`)
 is enabled.  The handling of record wild cards in such constructions
 isn't completely satisfactory, but doing better will require the
 `Parent` type to be more informative, as I'll explain on #11228.
