When typing a closure with an expected type containing a wildcard, the closure
type itself should not contain wildcards, because it might be expanded to an
anonymous class extending the closure type (this happens on non-JVM backends as
well as on the JVM itself in situations where a SAM trait does not compile down
to a SAM interface).

We were already approximating wildcards in the method type returned by the
SAMType extractor, but to fix this issue we had to change the extractor to
perform the approximation on the expected type itself to generate a valid
parent type. The SAMType extractor now returns both the approximated parent
type and the type of the method itself.

The wildcard approximation analysis relies on a new VarianceMap opaque type
extracted from Inferencing#variances.

Fixes #16065.
Fixes #18096.

Will this be backport to 3.3.x?

main is still 3.3.x for now so yes

Previously there were two separate checks for contextual function types as
result types: one in SAMType for non-PartialFunctions and one in ExpandSAM for
PartialFunctions. This is replaced by a single check (with a detailed error
message like we already had for PartialFunctions).

This was dropped in scala#18201 which restricted SAM types to valid parent types,
but it turns out that there is code in the wild that relies on refinements
being allowed here.

To support this properly, we had to enhance ExpandSAMs to move refinements into
type members to pass Ycheck (previous Scala 3 releases would accept the code in
tests/run/i18315.scala but fail Ycheck).

Fixes scala#18315.
