Description
### 🔎 Search Terms
Template Literal Types, assignability, generics
### 🕗 Version & Regression Information
- Between versions 4.3.5 and 4.2.3 more cases like this started being supported ( `x.${Name}` became assignable to `${string}.${Name}` for example), however the `x.y.${Name}` case has not bees assignable in any version since template support was added up to and including current nightly ( 5.9.0-dev.20250702 )

### 💻 Code
```ts
/**
* Compile time assert that A is assignable to (extends) B.
* To use, simply define a type:
* `type _check = requireAssignableTo;`
*/
export type requireAssignableTo<_A extends B, B> = true;
type worksSinceTypeScript4_3 = requireAssignableTo<
`x.${Name}`,
`${string}.${Name}`
>;
type fails = requireAssignableTo<
// Type '`x.y.${Name}`' does not satisfy the constraint '`${string}.${Name}`'.(2344)
`x.y.${Name}`,
`${string}.${Name}`
>;
type nonGenericWorks = requireAssignableTo<
`x.y.z`,
`${string}.z`
>;
```
### 🙁 Actual behavior
A compile error:
> Type '`x.y.${Name}`' does not satisfy the constraint '`${string}.${Name}`'.(2344)
### 🙂 Expected behavior
No compile error. The `.${Name}` portion of the type matches exactly, so this can be reduced to checking if `"x.y"` is assignable to `string` should be allowed.
### Additional information about the issue
I understand that in general not all cases like that are practical to support: perfect assignability checking of template strings is likely infeasible but I decided to report this case as I think this one suggest an algorithm that would be practical to implement and efficient: running a greedy algorithm to remove common constant substrings from the beginning and end of the string, including generic values, might be a viable approach, and would improve handling of this case.
