tuple slicing fails in inlined functions
Before submitting a bug report please ensure that you can check off these boxes:

- [x] I am using the latest released version of Numba (most recent is visible in
 the change log (https://github.com/numba/numba/blob/master/CHANGE_LOG).

0.46.0

- [x] I have included below a minimal working reproducer (if you are unsure how
 to write one see http://matthewrocklin.com/blog/work/2018/02/28/minimal-bug-reports).

Here is the reproducer:


```python
import numpy as np
from numba import njit, types
from numba.extending import overload


def output_factory(array, dtype):
    pass


@overload(output_factory, inline='always')
def ol_output_factory(array, dtype):
    if isinstance(array, types.npytypes.Array):
        def impl(array, dtype):
            shape = array.shape[3:]
            return np.zeros(shape, dtype=dtype)

        return impl


@njit(nogil=True)
def fn(array):
    out = output_factory(array, array.dtype)
    return out


@njit(nogil=True)
def fn2(array):
    return np.zeros(array.shape[3:], dtype=array.dtype)


fn(np.ones((10, 20, 30, 40, 50)))

fn2(np.ones((10, 20, 30, 40, 50)))
```

The call to ``fn`` fails with the following:

This error is usually caused by passing an argument of a type that is unsupported by the named function.
[1] During: typing of intrinsic-call at test_inlining.py (14)

File "test_inlining.py", line 14:
        def impl(array, dtype):
            shape = array.shape[3:]
            ^

    raised from /home/sperkins/venv/afr3/lib/python3.6/site-packages/numba/typeinfer.py:951
This error is usually caused by passing an argument of a type that is unsupported by the named function.
[1] During: resolving callee type: Function(<function output_factory at 0x7f9f5ac4ce18>)
[2] During: typing of call at test_inlining.py (22)

    ^

This is not usually a problem with Numba itself but instead often caused by
the use of unsupported features or an issue in resolving types.

To see Python/NumPy features supported by the latest release of Numba visit:
http://numba.pydata.org/numba-doc/latest/reference/pysupported.html
and
http://numba.pydata.org/numba-doc/latest/reference/numpysupported.html

For more information about typing errors and how to debug them visit:
http://numba.pydata.org/numba-doc/latest/user/troubleshoot.html#my-code-doesn-t-compile

If you think your code should work with Numba, please report the error message
and traceback, along with a minimal reproducer at:
https://github.com/numba/numba/issues/new
```

but the call to ``fn2`` succeeds.

I know the ``inline`` feature is new. Am I perhaps using it incorrectly?
