Hello,

I'm trying to create a mixin for quick binary operator overloads by passing in types with a corresponding associative array of strings to functions. However,
the code I currently have:

```
module foo;

mixin template opBi(
     A, A function(A, A)[string] f0,
) {
    static foreach (k, f; f0) { A opBinary(string op: k)(A r) { return f(this, r); } }
}

struct A {
     mixin opBi!(
         A, [ "+": (A a, A b) => a],
     );
}

struct B {
     mixin opBi!(
         B, [ "+": (B a, B b) => a],
     );
}


```

Will not let me override operators on both struct A and B.

I get:
```
foo.d(16): Error: mixin `foo.B.opBi!(B, ["+":function (B a, B b) pure nothrow @nogc @safe => a])` does not match template declaration `opBi(A, A function(A, A)[string] f0)`
```

Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong?

It's typing the AA differently, and therefore it doesn't fit. The type of the AA you are passing in is `T1[string]`, where it's expecting `T2[string]`, where:

`T1` is `B function(B, B) pure nothrow @nogc @safe`
`T2` is `B function(B, B)`

I don't know if there's a better way to do this, other than use a further template parameter to match the function type passed in.
