Add -fdefer-typed-holes flag which defers hole errors to runtime.
Summary:
As proposed by Richard on Trac. This patch adds a new flag -fdefer-typed-holes
and changes the semantics of the -fno-warn-typed-holes flag.
To summarise, by default GHC has typed holes enabled and produces a compile
error when it encounters a typed hole.
When -fdefer-type-errors OR -fdefer-typed-holes is enabled, hole errors are
converted to warnings and result in runtime errors when evaluated.
The warning flag -fwarn-typed-holes is on by default. Without -fdefer-type-errors
or -fdefer-typed-holes this flag is a no-op, since typed holes are an error
under these conditions. If either of the defer flags are enabled (converting
typed hole errors into warnings) the -fno-warn-typed-holes flag disables the
warnings. This means compilation silently succeeds and evaluating a hole will
produce a runtime error.
The rationale behind allowing typed holes warnings to be silenced is that tools
like Syntastic for vim highlight warnings and hole warnings may be undesirable.
