Check local type family instances against all imported ones
We previously checked type family instance declarations
in a module for consistency with all instances that we happened
to have read into the EPS or HPT. It was possible to arrange that
an imported type family instance (used by an imported function)
was in a module whose interface file was never read during
compilation; then we wouldn't check consistency of local instances
with this imported instance and as a result type safety was lost.
With this patch, we still check consistency of local type family
instances with all type family instances that we have loaded; but
we make sure to load the interface files of all our imports that
define family instances first. More selective consistency checking
is left to #13102.
On the other hand, we can now safely assume when we import a module
that it has been checked for consistency with its imports. So we
can save checking in checkFamInstConsistency, and overall we should
have less work to do now.
This patch also adds a note describing the Plan for ensuring type
family consistency.
Test Plan: Two new tests added; harbormaster
