Revert "ErrorType instead of throwing in match type "no cases""

This reverts commit 9ae1598

Note that the changes in Typer:
```
val unsimplifiedType = result.tpe
simplify(result, pt, locked)
result.tpe.stripTypeVar match
  case e: ErrorType if !unsimplifiedType.isErroneous =>
    errorTree(xtree, e.msg, xtree.srcPos)
  case _ => result
```
cannot be reverted yet since the MatchReducer now also reduces to an `ErrorType` for MatchTypeLegacyPatterns, introduced after 9ae1598.
