Infinite program loop while playback with looping tie of death

While playing with ties, I provoked an irrealistic situation that actually should never happen voluntarily.

- add two notes of same pitch and put a tie on them
- now edit the tie and move the anchor of the end note back to the start note.

- a little tie is now displayed over the start note

(you can use the provided mcsz file)

And now if you start the playback, the program gets stuck in an infinite loop and you have to kill MuseScore via the Task-manager, not nice ;-)

I read the argument in the previous bug but tie to self is just not a good construct and I believe it should be disallowed. It will cause more problems in playback for example.
