The change to `impl Clean<Path> for hir::TraitRef<'_>` was necessary to
fix a test failure for `src/test/rustdoc/trait-alias-mention.rs`.
Here's why:

The old code path was through `impl Clean<Type> for hir::TraitRef<'_>`,
which called `resolve_type`, which in turn called `register_res`. Now,
because `PolyTrait` uses a `Path` instead of a `Type`, the impl of
`Clean<Path>` was being run, which did not call `register_res`, causing
the trait alias to not be recorded in the `external_paths` cache.
