Remove CONSTR_STATIC
Summary:
We currently have two info tables for a constructor
* XXX_con_info: the info table for a heap-resident instance of the
constructor, It has type CONSTR, or one of the specialised types like
CONSTR_1_0
* XXX_static_info: the info table for a static instance of this
constructor, which has type CONSTR_STATIC or CONSTR_STATIC_NOCAF.
I'm getting rid of the latter, and using the `con_info` info table for
both static and dynamic constructors. For rationale and more details
see Note [static constructors] in SMRep.hs.
I also removed these macros: `isSTATIC()`, `ip_STATIC()`,
`closure_STATIC()`, since they relied on the CONSTR/CONSTR_STATIC
distinction, and anyway HEAP_ALLOCED() does the same job.
