The equality check needs to determine whether two TypeProxy instances represent the same type. The check was incorrect when two different object instances were allocated to represent the same generic instantiated type.
ILCompiler doesn't have this problem because it uses a cache to ensure that the same object instance represents a given instantiated generic type.
Discovered while investigating #106215, see more context at #106215 (comment).
The new testcase also uncovered an issue in the analyzer that's being fixed in #106909.
