RFR: 7039014: Confusing error message for method conflict [v3]

[Archie L. Cobbs]

> This fixes a confusing error message.
> 
> Currently, this input:
> 
> interface A<T> {
>     byte m(String x);
>     char m(T x);
> }
> 
> interface B extends A<String> {
> }
> 
> produces this error:
> 
> A.java:6: error: types A<String> and A<String> are incompatible;
> interface B extends A<String> {
> ^
>   both define m(String), but with unrelated return types
> 1 error
> 
> This patch detects when the two types are actually the same type and gives this error message instead:
> 
> A.java:6: error: type A<String> defines m(String) more than once with unrelated return types
> interface B extends A<String> {
> ^
> 1 error
