[lworld] RFR: 8275797: [lworld] Scalar replacement fails with ShouldNotReachHere() due to unexpected load type

Mon Oct 25 10:41:39 UTC 2021

When folding a field load from a scalar replaced, flat inline type array through an array copy, `T_ARRAY` is used instead of `T_OBJECT`. The fix is to simply convert the basic type of the field via `type2field` like we do in `InlineTypeBaseNode::load` and at other places.

Thanks,
Tobias
