I didn't follow this thread in too much detail, but FWIW I believe the
rule is that an objfile-owned type can refer to a gdbarch-owned type --
but not vice versa.

Following that it seems to me that there should not be a need to call
copy_type on a gdbarch-owned type.  So maybe that can be avoided,
instead of removing the assert?
