Objective
Solution
TypePath
implementations to universally ignore the types of fields, rather than use the same bounds as other implementations. I think this is a more holistic solution than Fix nested generics in Reflect derive #10791 because it totally erases the finicky bounds we currently generate, helping to untangle the reflection trait system.
