Replace HsImplicitBndrs with HsOuterTyVarBndrs
This refactors the GHC AST to remove `HsImplicitBndrs` and replace it with
`HsOuterTyVarBndrs`, a type which records whether the outermost quantification
in a type is explicit (i.e., with an outermost, invisible `forall`) or
implicit. As a result of this refactoring, it is now evident in the AST where
the `forall`-or-nothing rule applies: it's all the places that use
`HsOuterTyVarBndrs`. See the revamped `Note [forall-or-nothing rule]` in
`GHC.Hs.Type` (previously in `GHC.Rename.HsType`).
Moreover, the places where `ScopedTypeVariables` brings lexically scoped type
variables into scope are a subset of the places that adhere to the
`forall`-or-nothing rule, so this also makes places that interact with
`ScopedTypeVariables` easier to find. See the revamped
`Note [Lexically scoped type variables]` in `GHC.Hs.Type` (previously in
`GHC.Tc.Gen.Sig`).
`HsOuterTyVarBndrs` are used in type signatures (see `HsOuterSigTyVarBndrs`)
and type family equations (see `HsOuterFamEqnTyVarBndrs`). The main difference
between the former and the latter is that the former cares about specificity
but the latter does not.
There are a number of knock-on consequences:
* There is now a dedicated `HsSigType` type, which is the combination of
`HsOuterSigTyVarBndrs` and `HsType`. `LHsSigType` is now an alias for an
`XRec` of `HsSigType`.
* Working out the details led us to a substantial refactoring of
the handling of explicit (user-written) and implicit type-variable
bindings in `GHC.Tc.Gen.HsType`.
Instead of a confusing family of higher order functions, we now
have a local data type, `SkolemInfo`, that controls how these
binders are kind-checked.
It remains very fiddly, not fully satisfying. But it's better
than it was.
Fixes #16762. Bumps the Haddock submodule.
