Description
### 🔎 Search Terms
aliasSymbol, inferFromTypes, variadic tuple, compiler crash
### 🕗 Version & Regression Information
Version: 5.7.3, 5.8.3, 5.9.3,nightly (Still crashing after PR for #63014 )
### ⏯ Playground Link
https://www.typescriptlang.org/zh/play/?target=7&ts=5.9.3#code/C4TwDgpgBAygrgIwCpzAHiQPigXikqCAD2AgDsATAZygG0AoKJqAOjYAoBLMgMwgCcoAYQCUtALoAaRszYtufQQCFCJctToBDMiElRtIcfXFQA-FBUAuKGQgA3AQG56oSPn6cA5p4G5YiFHRaAEY9ACZxTEcgA
### 💻 Code
```ts
type SubTup = T extends [
...(infer C)[],
...infer B extends [any, any]
] ? B : never;
type Trigger = SubTup<[1, 2]>;
```
### 🙁 Actual behavior
```
TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'aliasSymbol')

### 🙂 Expected behavior
The compiler should not crash.
### Additional information about the issue
I noticed that while PR #63014 fixed some crashes related to variadic tuples, the compiler still crashes (ICE) when using a slightly different syntax.
Contributor guide
Research direction
Reproduce the variadic-tuple snippet from the Playground link or in the compiler, then trace the stack through built/local/_tsc.js, especially inferFromTypes and inferFromObjectTypes. Compare the remaining failure with PR #63014; done means the example no longer produces the aliasSymbol TypeError or crashes the compiler.
