Merge #4412

4412: infer: Make expected rhs type for plain assign the lhs type r=flodiebold a=kiljacken

This fixes an issue where the following code sample would fail to infer
the type contained in the option:
```rust
fn main() {
    let mut end = None; // Was Option<{unknown}>, is now Option<bool>
    loop {
        end = Some(true);
    }
}
```
