Changes many calls to normalize to dealiasWiden.
Calling normalize is very aggressive and is usually the wrong thing. It is one of the leading contributors to non-determinism in compiler outcomes (often of the form "I gave a debugging or logging compiler option and it started/stopped working") and should be used only in very specific circumstances. Almost without exception, dealiasWiden is what you want; not widen, not normalize. If possible I will remove normalize from Type entirely, making it private to those areas of the compiler which actually require it.
