Don't serialize redefined symbol nodes - #7499
Merged

Conversation
Redefined nodes sometimes have busted internal references (like a self argument that has the class as its type even though it won't be able to look it up) which can cause crashes. Since they can't have references from outside themselves, we don't lose anything by not serializing them. Fixes a crash I observed at Dropbox. This partially reverts #7413, which introduced this crash (while fixing another), but leaves the test case it added.

This (or another fix for this crash) needs to go into #7461 since it is a kind of bad regression.
