Term refs that reference term parameters can be substituted later by more precise ones, which can lead to different instantiations of type captures. They must therefore be considered as non concrete when following baseTypes to captures in variant positions, like we do for type param refs and other substitutable references.

We actually rewrite isConcrete in the process to be more based on an "allow list" of things we know to be concrete, rather than an "exclusion list" of things we know to be non-concrete. That should make it more straightforward to evaluate the validity of the algorithm.

Huh, I'm surprised this didn't break anything in the (small) community build. 😅

Anyway, seems good to review, then.

Note to @noti0na1 : This will need to be updated for flexibletypes.
