Confusing message if callable is incompatible due to argument name #4530

Description

@JukkaL

Mypy generates a confusing error for this program:

from typing import Callable, Union
from mypy_extensions import Arg

def f(x: Callable[[Arg(int, 'x')], None]) -> None: pass

y: Callable[[Union[int, str]], None]
f(y)  # error

Here is the output:

t.py:7: error: Argument 1 to "f" has incompatible type "Callable[[Union[int, str]], None]"; expected "Callable[[int], None]"

The actual error is the missing argument name in the type of y, but the error message gives no hint about this.
