Swank-fancy-inspector patch

The patch inlined below fixes the display of DEFTYPE lambda lists.

It's compatible enough with older SBCL - extracting the expander's arglist
is just a gensym, not technically wrong but not as useful as the
destructuring lambda list.
While this could be considered a regression, I don't think it needs
conditionalizing on SBCL release. The way to do so, in theory, is check
whether (:type :lambda-list) is a kind of info by asking for meta-info ...
except that it won't actually fix anything because current SBCL reports
that (:type :lambda-list) exists, but it never has data.
