ICE: Got a scalar pair where a scalar was expected when using the Self on fn, a wrong place.

[TsiyukiRitsuki]

A really similar case I found is: #135128
But I think they are different, as when trying the code in that issue, it didn't panic in the latest rustc: 1.88.0-nightly, but mine does.

Code

fn f() -> &'static str
where
    Self: Sized,
{
    ""
}

Command: rustc -C opt-level=1 -Zvalidate-mir

This seems to be a duplicate of #121363. When enabling debug assertions with -Zmir-opt-level=0, I can encounter:
