    OCaml 5: Backport flambda-backend#1960 (#268)

    * flambda-backend: Error message: add hint for unboxed types (#1960)

    * generalize hint to all unboxed types

    * add regression test

    * revert previous change

    * extra logic in Ptyp_class

    * better error wording

    * Fix backport of #1960

    * Remove mention of now-deprecated t# syntax for poly variant type
