Mapped types can circularly reference themselves (because member resolution is deferred), but array and tuple type instantiations cannot. This causes an issue when a circular homomorphic mapped type is instantiated for an array or tuple type as we now create array and tuple instantiations for such mappings (see #26063). With is PR we quickly detect and stop the runaway recursion that can occur by substituting
errorType
for the instantiation. We would eventually do this after 50 levels of nested instantiations, but exponential recursive fan-out could keep us from ever getting there.Fixes #27881.
