Relate existential associated types with variance Invariant

Fixes #71550 #72315

r? @nikomatsakis

The test case reported in that issue now errors with the following message ...

```
error[E0495]: cannot infer an appropriate lifetime for lifetime parameter 'a in function call due to conflicting requirements
  --> /tmp/test.rs:25:5
   |
25 |     bad(&Bar(PhantomData), x)
   |     ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
   |
note: first, the lifetime cannot outlive the lifetime `'a` as defined on the function body at 24:11...
  --> /tmp/test.rs:24:11
   |
24 | fn extend<'a, T>(x: &'a T) -> &'static T {
   |           ^^
note: ...so that reference does not outlive borrowed content
  --> /tmp/test.rs:25:28
   |
25 |     bad(&Bar(PhantomData), x)
   |                            ^
   = note: but, the lifetime must be valid for the static lifetime...
note: ...so that the types are compatible
  --> /tmp/test.rs:25:9
   |
25 |     bad(&Bar(PhantomData), x)
   |         ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
   = note: expected  `&'static T`
              found  `&T`

error: aborting due to previous error

For more information about this error, try `rustc --explain E0495`.

I could also add that test case if we want to have a weaponized one too.
