rustdoc: Don't panic on ambiguous inherent associated types

Instead, return `Type::Infer` since compilation should fail anyway.
That's how rustdoc handles `hir::TyKind::Err`s, so this just extends
that behavior to `ty::Err`s when analyzing associated types.

For some reason, the error is printed twice with rustdoc (though only
once with rustc). I'm not sure why that is, but it's better than
panicking.

This commit also makes rustdoc fail early in the non-projection,
non-error case, instead of returning a `Res::Err` that would likely
cause rustdoc to panic later on. This change is originally from #88379.
