Do not emit recursion groups without GC enabled (#4738)

We emit nominal types as a single large recursion group, but this produces
invalid modules when --nominal or --hybrid was used without GC enabled. Fix the
bug by always emitting types as though they were structural (i.e. without
recursion groups) when GC is not enabled.

Fixes #4723.
