TypeCatalogueInstanceProvider throws first chance MissingMethodException trying to instantiate DefaultEnumerableValueFormatter

See original GitHub issue

A first chance exception is happening down in the bowels of FIE due to the TypeCatalogueInstanceProvider attempting to create an instance of DefaultEnumerableValueFormatter which does not have a no-arg constructor.

System.MissingMethodException: No parameterless constructor defined for type 'FakeItEasy.Core.ArgumentValueFormatter+DefaultEnumerableValueFormatter'.
   at System.RuntimeType.CreateInstanceDefaultCtorSlow(Boolean publicOnly, Boolean wrapExceptions, Boolean fillCache)
   at System.RuntimeType.CreateInstanceDefaultCtor(Boolean publicOnly, Boolean skipCheckThis, Boolean fillCache, Boolean wrapExceptions)

   at FakeItEasy.Core.TypeCatalogueInstanceProvider.InstantiateAllOfType[T]() in C:\projects\fakeiteasy\src\FakeItEasy\Core\TypeCatalogueInstanceProvider.cs:line 35

Other cases of First Chance Exceptions have been corrected in the past.
