ClassfileParser: Avoid cycle when accessing companion in inner class lookup (#16882)

Previously, the call to `info` on the module val could lead to a cycle
since the module val might be in the process of being completed. This
commit fixes this by only using the module class which is all we need to
lookup members.

Fixes #15288.
Fixes #14059.
