 Fix #15572 by checking for promoted names in ConT

 Summary:
 When converting `ConT`s to `HsTyVar`s in `Convert`, we were
 failing to account for the possibility of promoted data constructor
 names appearing in a `ConT`, which could result in improper
 pretty-printing results (as observed in #15572). The fix is
 straightforward: use `Promoted` instead of `NotPromoted` when the
 name of a `ConT` is a data constructor name.

 Test Plan: make test TEST=T15572
