Assume m.pyi like this:

from typing import Tuple
a = ... # type: A
class A(Tuple[int, str]): ...

Now this error isn't caught by mypy:

from m import a
a[0]()

This is caused by the class definition being after the type reference in m.pyi. Apparently tuple item types don't get propagated because the class hasn't been semantically analyzed yet when binding the type.

Forward references didn't work with anything apart from classes, for example 
this didn't work:

```
x: A
A = NamedTuple('A', [('x', int)])
```

The same situation was with `TypedDict`, `NewType`, and type aliases. The 
root problem is that these synthetic types are neither detected in first pass, 
nor fixed in third pass. In certain cases this can lead to crashes (first six issues 
below are various crash scenarios). This fixes these crashes by applying some 
additional patches after third pass.

Here is the summary of the PR:

* New simple wrapper type `ForwardRef` with only one field `link` is introduced 
  (with updates to type visitors)
* When an unknown type is found in second pass, the corresponding 
  `UnboundType` is wrapped in `ForwardRef`, it is given a "second chance" in 
  third pass.
* After third pass I record the "suspicious" nodes, where forward references and 
  synthetic types have been encountered and append patches (callbacks) to fix 
  them after third pass. Patches use the new visitor `TypeReplacer` (which is the 
  core of this PR).
