     Make sure that we check for type errors strictly in a Template Haskell
 splice, even if -fdefer-type-errors is on

     We're going to run this code, so there's no point in deferring type
     errors.  Worse, TcSplice uses unsafeCoerce (for vevy good reasons),
     so splicing a type into a place where an expression is expected would
     yield a seg-fault if we plough on regardless.

     Fixes Trac #7276
