Description
The following impls both result in an ICE:
```
struct S {}
impl S {
type D = [u64;1];
}
```
```
struct C {
a: T
}
impl C{
type D = [T; 1];
}
```
The error message is `Self type not provided`.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the two type-alias examples from the issue and locating the compiler path that handles associated type declarations in impls. Trace why the Self type is missing for both non-generic and generic impls; done means neither example produces an ICE and the compiler reports the intended result or diagnostic.
