  * Make type-tidying work for coercion variables
  
  When tidying a TyVar binder, we must tidy its kind if it's a coercion
  variable!  I had forgotten to do this, which is a serious bug.  As a
  result some more complicated programs were getting a Lint error when
  reading in interface files.  Score one for Core Lint!
