Low priority inference trumps a much better inference that can be made from a generic signature

💻 Code

declare function defineComponent<Props extends Record<string, any>>(
  setup: (props: Props) => void,
  options?: {
    props?: (keyof Props)[];
  },
): (props: Props) => unknown;

const res1 = defineComponent(
  <T extends string>(_props: { msg: T }) => {
    return () => {};
  }
);

res1
// ^? const res1: <T extends string>(props: { msg: T; }) => unknown

const res2 = defineComponent(
  <T extends string>(_props: { msg: T }) => {
    return () => {};
  },
  {
    props: ["msg"],
  },
);

res2
// ^? const res2: (props: { msg: any; }) => unknown

🙁 Actual behavior

A low-priority inference made from keyof Props prevents inference from the generic signature

🙂 Expected behavior

I'd expect both of those to infer the same result: <T extends string>(props: { msg: T; }) => unknown

Additional information about the issue

There is an existential question to be asked here... what is a low-priority inference in the first place? :P Where is the line? Should every inference priority other than InferencePriority.None be treated as low-priority here?

Reproduziere den Inferenzunterschied im verlinkten TypeScript Playground, beginnend mit der generischen Signatur und dem im Issue beschriebenen keyof Props-Inferenzpfad. Verfolge, wie Inferenz mit niedriger Priorität behandelt wird, und überprüfe anschließend, dass res2 dieselbe generische Signatur wie res1 inferiert, ohne verwandte Inferenzfälle zu beeinträchtigen.
