Enum variant layouts don't need to store a full `LayoutShape`; just storing
the fields offsets is enough and all other information can be inferred from
the parent layout:
- size, align and ABI don't make much sense for individual variants and
should generally be taken from the parent layout instead;
- variants always have `fields: FieldsShape::Arbitrary { .. }` and
`variant: VariantShape::Single { .. }`.

Don't expose redundant information in `rustc_public`'s `LayoutShape`

- size, align and ABI don't make much sense for individual variants and should generally be taken from the parent layout instead;
- variants always have `fields: FieldsShape::Arbitrary { .. }` and `variant: VariantShape::Single { .. }`.
In principle, the same refactor could be done on `rustc_abi::Layout` (see [this comment](#113988 (comment))) but I prefer starting with this smaller change first.
