Optimise nullary type constructor usagewip/tyconapp-opts
During the compilation of programs GHC very frequently deals with the `Type` type, which is a synonym of `TYPE 'LiftedRep`. This patch teaches GHC to avoid expanding the `Type` synonym (and other nullary type synonyms) during type comparisons, saving a good amount of work. This optimisation is described in `Note [Comparing nullary type synonyms]`. To maximize the impact of this optimisation, we introduce a few special-cases to reduce `TYPE 'LiftedRep` to `Type`. See `Note [Prefer Type over TYPE 'LiftedPtrRep]`. Closes #17958. Metric Decrease: T18698b T1969 T12227 T12545 T12707 T14683 T3064 T5631 T5642 T9020 T9630 T9872a T13035 haddock.Cabal haddock.base
