Eta expansion uses local owner for binders

Before, they kept their original owner (the eta expanded class),
which caused an owner-structure mismatch in pickling.
This resulted in spurious recompilation and asSeenFrom crashes.

Changing the owner of the binders used for eta-expansion,
weirdly revealed a problem with typing annotations,
where, I assume, reuse of the class type params hid
the missing logic for dealing with polymorphic annotation
classes and the undetparams that arise of typing their
instantiation.
