feat: support enums modulo irrelevance (#9144)
This PR adds support for representing more inductive as enums,
summarized up as extending support to those that fail to be enums
because of parameters or irrelevant fields. While this is nice to have,
it is actually motivated by correctness of a future desired
optimization. The existing type representation is unsound if we
implement `object`/`tobject` distinction between values guaranteed to be
an object pointer and those that may also be a tagged scalar. In
particular, types like the ones added in this PR's tests would have all
of their constructors encoded via tagged values, but under the natural
extension of the existing rules of type representation they would be
considered `object` rather than `tobject`.
