Fix the issue reported by @Seelengrab at #43500 (comment).
I agree with the argument and the solution proposed there, which is implemented here.

As mentioned in the comment, if this fix is accepted, it should be backported to 1.8 too.

CI failures seem unrelated.
For context, what this PR does is restoring the error-throwing behavior pre-1.8 for the particular case of reinterpret(::SingletonType, ::NonSingletonArray), except that the error is a pretty ArgumentError explaining what's happening instead of a DivideError.
